Yea I turned ext. view off..
I hate to be one of those guys.. But sadly I am now, lol
I ONLY played with auto targeting.. and my immersion was the whole avoiding damage deal, but whenever I saw a ship, I made believe I was actually plotting something, when in reality, I knew no MATTER what, it was going to sink..
Even during a big task force, normally I would sink at least 1 big ship, flat top or cruiser.
Now with manual targeting, I am that guy, the guy that will say, How could anyone play with auto targeting..

I know.. I know.. I was embarrassed to admit I used auto targeting all these years, so I avoided mentioning it.
I told some great war stories over the many years here but never included I was using aimbot
How anyone could use auto targeting it beyond me.. I don't even remember how it was anymore, lol but I could never ever go back to it.
REALLY plotting and figuring things out and shooting 3 fish and only hitting 1, is a huge success..
and I smile
Before, if I missed with just 1 torp. I would be pissed and sometimes reload, lol
With auto targeting, sinking 50k tons or more is not unheard of , lol
now I'm happy with 3 ships and 15k tons
