For those of us who have always played with realistic sink times ON, what is an 'interesting' sinking?
Here's what I see in order of likelihood:
1) break in half (fuel bunker), sink instantly (of course)
- my favourite is when it has sunk to one end, and then you break it in half, and the sunk end sinks first, and the buoyant end bounces up, released from the downward drag! so dramatic!
2) explode starting at one end (i.e. ammo bunker) and sink by that end
3) to bow or stern - usually slow, following a keel shot to that end (i find that if you select keel in the rec manual, it aims for keel near stern).
4) Capsize - this usually follows a 1-sided shallow torpedoing, followed by deck gun work on the same side. When I say 'capsize', it doesn't remain upside down, but rather passes through that position on its way down.
5) Sink straight down with no bias to either end or either side. This is very rare for me - sometimes with a centered keel shot...
What else have you guys seen?
