Good I must of installed it correctly then. I will know for sure if I get strafed by a plane, but Im still in early war.
You're right, I was parked as in full stop, trying to get a good torpedo shot off on a destroyer infront of me who hadnt seemed to take notice of me as he was at a dead stop as well. When I take a casual glance slightly to the right and directly right on top of me is a whole destroyer just sitting there, if I surfaced we would of colided. I knew I had been detected and if this were real life I would be completely screwed and forced to either abandon ship or go down with the ship.
I reloaded the mission from a few minutes earlier and there was a destroyer on my 6 that I hadn't noticed (partially because it was night time) that was bearing down on me, so that must be the one you were referring to. The sonar I was hearing I was thinking it was the destroyer in front of me, not one behind me I had no idea about, so there was no way for me to know he had spotted me, without having taken a glance back, I was so focused on the destroyer infront of me.
Now the main difference I could tell that these were not the same destroyers was when I was attacking a carrier with 7 destroyers escorting it, I fired off a salvo and sunk the carrier at which point the destroyers completely ignored the fact that the ship they were suppose to be defending got sunk and continued on there way as if nothing had happened. I had changed the method I used for installing IRAI between the carriers destroyers and the one that parked on top of me, I also started a new campaign, not sure if that helps either.
Highly unrealistic, its like ubi made 80% of a game, then said f it, and let the modders do all the polishing of what was a turd.
One last couple of questions since this is my thread for the game I am getting back into, and loving it with the IRAI. There is actually a sense of danger for once which vastly helps with immersion on my 28" monitor and really gets you into the game unlike other simulators I own. I have to say before it seemed like the destroyers never pinged their sonar, now they do it all the time and silent running is once again useful. PLus realism settings helps a lot as well. Anyways....
I did blockade of germany, sunk 5 amc ships, sunk the carrier, sunk 150,000 tons of shipping between the east coast of the UK and the Atlantic approach for the UK. There is still an iron cross in my mission objectives that I have not earned and can not proceed. My question is, do I have to wait it out til June 1st to continue (im still in mid February!) or is there anothe rmission that I haven't gotten to, that needs to be found and requested?
