A very old discussion which you're too new to remember. No, the periscopes didn't lock. The man using the periscope, however, had the luxury of keeping his hands on the handles and his reticle lined up on the target, something we can't do without the "magic locking button".

Real Uboat commanders spent the first years of the war not being able to find anything before they discovered that they were travelling too fast in time.
Then everyone should play at 1x? Yes, it was a mistake, and can properly be called a bug. They seemingly fixed it for SH4, and hopefully it will work properly in SH5. A lot of this stuff can't be found in the brief testing time they have. Would you prefer that SH3 had not been released until 2010? SH4 in 2015? SH5 in 2025? There will still be things that slip through in any project this complex.

This community is the worst I've come across for making excuses for unfinished games. Some gamers really do deserve the shoddy products that they end up with.
Now you stoop to insulting us because we don't agree with you. I thought you said you were done. Can't you keep a promise?
