Lies. You know, this game works because our fat imagination, because sometime we want so much to work as we dream that we actually belive it does. But is just a mirrage.
I'm doing Black Pit now and there is a lot of wolfpack activity there, including a mission with "sink million ships using wolpack tactics". So instead of hunting convoys, I hunted our u-boats trying to find and join a wolfpack. Finally I managed to find a big one, 9 u-boot heading west in close formation. So I joined them hoping for a great hunt. My *** !
Few hours after I joined them, we run right into a huge convoy with heavy escort and all that goodies. Gues what this lame wolfpack did? They broke up. Those retards in front crash dived and sailed away at 50m, 2 in next row got 1 shoted by the escorts and the last row in back managed to sail away on high speed. I left all alone against mad escorts and zig-zag'in ships.
So that story on official forum is a result of an action hungry imagination. AI subs don't engage enemy ships, they dodge them.. is not the first time I see this. Same as the u-boot did that I posted in screenshot thread, where after I joined another AI u-boot and we found a convoy.. he dived and on max speed avoided any contact with the enemy.. after the convoy passed he surfaced again but bad luck.. the convoy had a battleship that one shoted him.
So yeah, sadly there is no working wolfpack in the game, it's just an ilusion
