Thank you for your input into this positive thread...
I like the gameplay. As I've said before, I have no problems with radar or CTDs or the lack of escort pursuit. With the fantastic modding community here, all those problems are fixed.
I agree with the missions (I've only had one "repeat" mission, and that was my own fault for not reporting it back to base) I really like that element of the game. It makes it so much more imersive for me. The thrill of sneaking past the harbor patrol to photograph a ship. The search for the poor zoomies that are now floating around the ocean somewhere. The hunt for the important target that is coming into my area. The challenge of getting close enough to a convoy to report it but not so close as to be detected. It's all a blast to me!!
I like patrolling the shipping lanes and trying to get into the middle of a convoy to wreak havoc. I like the challenge of getting through the destroyer screen of an enemy task force and attempting to take down some captial ships.
The visuals, while they may be nice, are not what does it for me. In fact, I have a crappy video card and can hardly enjoy them, so I stick with the 2D map station and occasionally the periscope. What really makes it for me is that I'm a WWII PTO junkie and getting a chance to "participate" in that operation is truely great fun.
