LOL - I'll say it's a big problem. So nobody has a solution to this issue?
Let me see - based on what I've seen and read so far:
1. you can't use the binoculars on the bridge to approach or attack on the surface;
2. you can't avoid the "monolith of FPS death" or whatever they're calling the anomaly that turns the game into a slideshow when you try to look in certain directions (didn't see the monolith itself but I sure did experience the total loss of FPS in the navigation tutorial where I discovered the binoculars thing);
3. you can't reliably conduct submerged attacks using manual targeting because the TDC doesn't work correctly half the time;
4. you can't even enjoy the external camera views of your boat because even though the graphics seem to hold great promise in some respects, without FSAA the jaggies are so bad you spend all your time wondering why you bought that $400-$500 video card...
:hmm: Not sure what else you're really supposed to do in a sub sim - I knew there were issues from reading the forums, but I really hoped I'd at least be able to load it up and play around with it a little to learn the controls and features and stuff while waiting for the next patch (after all, it took them until patch 1.4 to get SH3 really good and stable). However, as much as I hate to be negative, this is pretty much unplayable (for me anyway) in its current state. I hope the devs can hurry up and patch this thing up to something respectable, 'cause there seems to be a lot of potential here for a really fine game if they get it together. In the meantime, I guess it's back to SH3 to explore the latest NYGM and GWX for a bit.
