Yup. I have Downloaded my Copy from someware, and i played it till i got SH3. With all the Trix AOD teached me (And wich didn't helped much in AOD) i could Fake the SH3 Destroyers to no end. They are just too Stupid...  
Today everyone just tries to get the best graphics and forgets the rest about it...
Und nochwas: Im englischen schreibt man es "AI" statt "KI".  |
AI, of course, oopsie :rotfl:
anyway, just started a AOD career today...and get sunk at the first patrol! damn. BDU said i shall patrol at AM32. after arriving and getting bored over there another sub send a message:
U42, BE3535, DESTROYERS, SINKING!
wow...shocking, because if you get a message in AOD you know it happens. few hours later i received another message, convoy sighted AMXXXX. after hours at AK my crew spotted smoke at the horizon (at 30.000! (meters i guess). it ws getting dark (perfect) and i tried to get into the heavy guarded (5 escorts in 39!) convoy from behind. just as i thought "ok, 1000m more and i will fire my torps..." a destryoer was heading towards me. dived to P-depth, firing 2 torps. 1 dud, 1 hit, but not sunk. destroyer is pinging me, set depth to 160m, silent running, ruder hard Bb to 350° 2nd destroyer coming my way, the first one drops a lot of well placed DC´s - scree´n is shaking, several damage reports of all kinds! (diesel damaged, pumps damaged, torphatches damaged etc. etc. not so boring like in SH3. and the repair of the diesel would take 47hours! (hours me and my crew dont have...).
my CE told me that he has trouble to maintain depth, so i get on 120m, the frst escort was turning, the second just arrived at the scene and drops DC´s too. well placed again, but no more damage at all. i took my eyes off the screen for maybe 20 seconds... after that i saw a black screen. huh, whats happened? a newspaper appeard - "Oberleutnant Kerber sunk!"
oopsie...
i wish the destroyers would kick a$$ like this in sh3
