I don't fault the AI for being aggressive. In fact, I salute it.  |
Not sure if that is smart though. It means that all an American has to do is fire a torp into the blue to make every enemy reveal itself.
But if you have played this a lot, then you also know they ping at random, even without firing a shot. They ping all the time. Revealing themselves.
Shadriss also has a good point. So maybe don't ping at all. Really, try and disable it: for me, the gameplay improved (in 1968 atm).
