What are the odds?
So I was at night in the middle of one of those ever-lasting storms with heavy rain and no visibility. And when I say no visibility, I mean it. In OLCE2 it's so damned dark and murky that I can't even see the outline of my watch officer when I stand on the bridge, just a big blur of rain. I surfaced to recharge batteries after cruising for the day at 60m... Of course I asked the sonar guy for a report before surfacing and he said ''No sound contacts''. Up we go, and I turn on the radar to do a sweep of the horizon. Nothing at all... One would have to be mad to sail in these conditions anyways. I went to TC 512x to recharge batteries and all of a sudden I get this:
''Ship spotted!'' And literally a second later, before I can even get on the bridge: ''Bow torpedo damaged! Hull damaged sir!'' I try to see something from the bridge, but like I described earlier I can't even see the railing. So I press ''ctrl+v'' and the watch officer says something like ship ''090, short range''. I get in the uzo and exploit a little flaw in the game.. I lock the invisible target with it and ask for identification. The weapons officer, with his bionic eyes, says it's a... Guess what... A SLOOP :rotfl: I rammed a 7 ton sailboat in the middle of the Atlantic... Seriously, what are the odds?!
