Farkin aimbots :P Always going for "headshots" :rotfl:
I just bagged a Shokaku! My first carrier. Man, it just feels so awesomely good to actually get one of those. Im in an S-18 with mark 10s but got an early headsup about the task force in the strait south of Sea of Celebes. So I had time to put myself in perfect position and there, about 800 yards sails a Shokaku past.
Im glad I had my whiz wheel so I could set up a shot so fast. I fired 3 eels and scored two hits. The first struck somewhere in the aft of the ship but the secon was a perfect below the keel detonation. Huge hole in the bottom of Shokaku-san. It actually keeled over and sank sideways in less than 2 minutes. I almost felt bad. Such a beauty.
Their destroyer screen never even found out where I hit them from (and Im using Harder Escorts mod)
This experience just washed away my last inklings of doubts about this game.
With faults and all, I love SH4!
As for life boats, I seem them fairly often. Not sure what makes them launch or not, but Ive seen both inflatable ones and wooden ones, complete with rowing sailors ^^
