Does TMO sometimes have them make attack runs without you hearing the sound of the DCs being launched? I am in a Salmon class boat and I have been going down to 250' (the red line) I guess I could/should be exceeding test depth by what - I think its like 25% or so? Urge
the thought behind TMO in my opinion is its guided by the idea that the stock game is just way too easy and they decided to make the game very hard so it is very challenging. because of this the enemy sensors are a lot better than they should be if you were to limit it to realistic levels. this is enhanced to be even more of a challenge because of the fact that the game "cheats". it sends destroyers right to your exact position no matter what you do even if you dont move or make a sound. i swear the way they act in the game they would have to have have satelite gps tracking and magnetic field technology lol.

unfortunately all you can do is use your best evasive technics and remember that sometimes the game just cheats and its not that you did anything wrong.
