Das boot flashback

squeak · 12-10-06, 05:31 PM

I was on my 8th patrol just outside dakar at the african westcoast.
The weather was crap, just about 50~100m visibility at most.
On my way home i got the warning " detecting radar signals" then i went to periscope depth and my sonarman says "warship closing at bearing 010 moving fast, i had to check if a could see the warship, and just when i was scaning the surface i got the same view in das boot when the uboat almost got ramed by the destroyer.

It was a really good flashback to Das boot

Sounds cool, mate! Do you have a screenshot? Would be cool if someone could start a "copy this Das Boot screenshot" thread!

Near the end of the film when they return to base and theres an air raid could possibly be emulated....especially late in the war (in game) when your base is often attacked as you commence a patrol

Well if you realy want you can do it. Start campaine with radar on your uboat - when you return to your home - just turn it on and let the show begin
