or maybe my scenario was a 1 off i dunno. there is so much quality content in GWX that i really want to use it but things like this really ruin it for me

I really think that it is as you say... a "one-off" situation. In most of my own testing with the sensors... they'd ping the crap out of you. "Death music" 
The DD's are a LOT more aggressive in GWX. This is a good thing inspite of the term "uber" that gets tossed around here so easily. |
The warships are darn good in GWX. I believe they react very well. Today I had a day light attack on a convoy. I got by the lead frigate who did detect me but lost me. I sent out four torpedos and sunk a small merchant. OK, I made my grand entrance and they all know I'm here. The convoy steamed on while two warships keep be under. I eluded by going deep/silent/2kts/head changes now and then I . One warship went back to the convoy after about an 1/2 hour and the frigate stayed for another 15 minutes. They dropped DC indescrimintly because they really did not have a bead on me. Both warships high tailed back to the convoy as they got quite far away. I surfaced and prepared for end round night attack.
In my view, the AI warships are on the money. This was 1939 and they knew I was there and keep me down, all be it with just tossing in DC in hopes to sink me. They kept me down long enough to allow the convoy to steam on....just like the real thing. I suspect later on in the war they will be more precise to my location and drop the DC right on top of me.
The GWX mod has made it more challenging for sure. I have not tried the night time attack so cannot comment on the AI reaction. I can tell you this, I went by a destroyer at 500m, clear night without being detected. I WAS SURFACED
. Sorry man, no one will find complaints out of me concerning the AI warships. Hat off to the GWX team.
