I'ld like some opinions on what people think is a reasonable distance to be able to distinguish a SSN BB effect from others. A lot of it is probably speaker/headset dependent, but Bellman mentioned some ranges that he could tell a SSN from others.
with a SW
A noisey Han was audible at 15nm to Bellman, 12nm to my crappy headset
I heard a Typhoons BB signal in Bill's HFRO mission at 8nm (and could tell it was an SSN by the sound effect).
A cavitating AkulaII in a sand bottom shallow water op was distinguishable at around 4nm...
A Grisha V was distinguishable as a patrol boat at 10-12nm as well.
Loud supertankers / freighters/ etc are very distinct at 15+miles.
Anyone have opinions? I'm mainly worried about them being too high and it representing a sortof cheat...:hmm:
