To start..

1. The deck guns in SH3 are far to unrealisticly accurate compared to their real life counterparts...the Uboat made for a bad gun platform with all the rolling and pitching of the boat.

2. The deck gun barrels were not stabalized on the Uboats like a M1 Abrams tank barrel like they are in SH3.The pitch and roll of the boat plays no role in the game.

3. The shells in stock game do far to much damage and sink the ships far faster than it would in real life.

4. With the stock deck gun settings you would bring home 3x more tonnage in 1 patrol that was possible in the real Uboats.

The RUB mod is made for die hard realism fans...not for weekend warriors who just want to go out and sink as much tonnage in as short a time as they can in an arcade shoot em up fashion.

Certain changes had to be made to kill the uber qualities of the stock deck gun.They were made to keep the player from relying on his deck gun and from using it in an unrealistic manner.

With the settings now you have to worry that while you are firing at a merchant with a deck gun will a destroyer sneak up on you or will enemy aircraft come to the aid of the merchant you are attacking.Just as it was in real life.You can change the settings using SH3 Commander or the method posted above.

Yes I agree. The accuracy is of a Leopard II/A5. This should be something to think about for the SHIV?

:hmm:
