Default Time Compressers are noobs!!

true! if you play above 1X your missing this sim bigtime!!
Time compression facts:
1.the noobest saying -I DONT HAVE THE TIME- duh whats the diffence if you play for 2/3 hours at 1x or 1024x-its still 2/3 hours
1.missing ships/planes/whole convoys/sound contacs/cool ass sunrise and sunsets etc.
2.This sim deserves more than zippin around in circles untill your lucky enough to ram somthin ((if tc didnt drop auto you would))
3.running into frienldly/nuetral ships -well tc didnt turn red so i'll keep goin-NOOOBISH!!!-1X YA JUST CANT TELL WHO IS WHO till ya see a flag or get shot at

I love the fact sh3 is a diffrent game at 1x not like sh2 where it really didnt matter makes this sim a true sim I feel sorry for you guys that TC your really missin it grant you the first and last 700nm of a patrol can be a total bore = but ts worth it!! there are some weather issues also with 1x but those can be ironed out-------- yes i am tryin to get more 1x skippers

I'm sorry, but I'm getting tired of your arrogant, elitist CLAPTRAP! This is the third or fourth time you've started a post looking down your nose at everyone who isn't you, and it gets old fast.

If you don't sit in front of that monitor 24/7, you're NOT really playing at 1x, you're just pretending too, plain and simple.

If ya wana be a seasoned skipper then go join the navy......

Point is theres hardly anyone out there with a patience and the time to go a 1x... It takes about 2 hours to leave wilhelmshaven on 1x. There just arnt enough hours in the day to play 1x on SH3

And this is just one of them,

Really Codmander WHO THE (BLEEP) do you think you are ey , thoughguy!
you miserable little worm with that ''OW LOOK AT ME I,M SO ELITE!!!'' crap.
Some people do not have the bloody time nor patience to play 1 TC , and you call them Noobs? Sorry m8 , but thats just insulting and disrepectfull!
and ofcourse there is a SAVE/LOAD function but not everyone can trust the installation for not screwing it up! so ofcourse people use TC to get from A to B (To prevent that the Save / Load bug will screw up their carreer) and they are not noobs. so I dont know whats up in ur mind.

so the next time , keep that ''No 1TC? ur a Noob'' or anything else that makes other people any LESS then you craptalk for yourself.

have a nice Day,

HunterICX

Ps. a good Fact, it doesnt matter if you play NYGM, WAW, TGW , GWX Realism settings 0 or 100 everyone here is EQUAL!

Games are for fun, and everyone's definition of fun is unique to them.

It is our uniqueness that makes us beautiful.

Rock on with your 1X patrols. I think it's great you (and many others) enjoy them. For me, I primarily enjoy the hunting aspects of the game, rather than the traveling, so I will continue to use TC.

This has got me thinking now BB

Bearing in mind we are currently beta testing a few 'goodies' for the next GWX update (no elitist attitude intended or implied) ...how about if we carried out this function at x1 TC to prove to ourselves we aren't really 'noobs' but more akin to a bunch of people just trying their level best to give every sib simmer a better more equitable chance of enjoying the game:hmm:
Although that would mean a xmas 2007 release I suppose which in effect would make some of us look like 'noobs'
Ah well!...just a thought

Weeks of testing before it gets to you testers

1X testing would take me days only to find something needs changing then test again

I often play at 1x but I don't think it serves any purpose to be calling someone who doesn't play that a "noob" or any other name.

It's a game. Play it the way that gives you the most enjoyment.

Well,I believe,that playing SH3 without TC can be enjoyable for hard-core kaleuns,but no matter how realistic SH3+GWX is - it's still the PC game,so I want to play it.Sometimes sailing 3 days and meet ZERO (don't mean that jap.plane:rotfl: ).Without TC it would be the same bore like fishing simulation or something like that.Don't think,that for example radio messages are missing with TC - I spent 22 days on my first patrol and received more than 50 of them.Same with convoys,planes,ships - everything is there even with 1024x - that's my experience.I went through La Manche - I thought I've already made it so I've pressed 1024x and few minutes later two Hurricanes were approaching and the good thing is,that the game automaticly switch the TC off when there is some engagement.And yes - even with TC off it's not 100% simulation.But I agree,that there are some people who are probably absolutely satisfied when they don't meet ANYTHING for three,four days........

Funny: i'm not playing 1x and my patrols last for 5 (short range usually in 1939 - 1940)
- 10 hours (long range). And I AM using 1024x TC (when needed). Second: my patrols last for 30 - 45 ingame days (sometimes longer) - so if i would want to play in real time then i must sacrifice at least one month of my life - there are some reasons why i wont do that...

About missing ships/konvoys: ive done 9 patrols in my current career so far and 3 of them were 100k patrols...( GWX 1.02 80% realism - DudTorpedoes=false, NoWeaponOfficerAssist=false).

Don' really have a prob with the "Time Comp" I set it all up in "SH3Cmdr" If I need to go slow because of certain events the game will etc. I spend around 2-3 hours for one patrol. I don't see a prob with that.
