Good start. Go on the attack right away. You'll get lots of people on your side by pointing out "bugs" and "inaccuracies" that either don't exist or have nothing to do with the mod you're attacking.

In the Flak Gun scenario, where in the world do practice or target aircraft SHOOT BACK? WTF? Now, I totally understand that in the game patrol aircraft will shoot at you, but there's an amazing little technique that I myself have perfected that will nullify this problem: STAY SUBMERGED DURING DAYLIGHT SO AIRCRAFT CAN'T SPOT YOU!  Wow...what a novel idea!

Is there really any need to be that insulting? Some valium might help. I think the idea here was to let you have a little fun. As Frau K pointed out, with GWX you only have to pass the training exam to get the full 1500 renown. The rest are for your enjoyment and training. You don't have to take them.

And how is it a ship of over 2,000 tons can sight a torpedo and suddenly get up enough steam to avoid it completely when said vessel was DEAD IN THE FREAKING WATER?
|
Also as pointed out, that is a problem with the physics of the stock game, and has nothing whatsoever to do with GWX. People have been trying to fix it for the last six years, with somewhat mixed results.

And why is the game refuses to count you passing an exam even after achieving ALL the primary objectives?
|
As asked, did you click the Exam box before beginning? Also part of the stock game, and not the fault of GWX.

And please tell me why it is that torpedoes fired at an ideal angle, perfect depth, and run hot, straight, and normal hit the target AND BOUNCE OFF? WTF? Is there a mod or something to correct this BS? Because it's happened to me no less than SEVEN times now and quite frankly it's starting to p**s me off ROYALLY.

The Germans, like the Americans after them, had massive amounts of torpedo problems, which weren't completely solved until 1943. And the real kaleuns were also very unhappy about it. It is indeed frustrating, but it's not BS at all.
There's an old saying: You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. You'll get a lot more answers and a lot more help if you don't kick in the door and come in with guns blazing.
