No ship Import mentioned on the changelog

Need to check if fixes to recognition manual Is a fix for the stadimeter.

[cherbert]

Clocks in sub still not working / missing hands.

Periscope was up when I started a new campaign.

Footstep sounds still speed up when walking through the sub.

[robbo180265]

Thanks for posting that Sonarman. Will be waiting to see what everyone thinks before I bother to re-instal the game.

Looks like no new ships

Thanks for the heads up JU_88

Bah.. Looks like improments to Recognition Manual is just the addition of Draft, Speed and Tonnage.
Ha... my Mod adds more than that. (Mast Height and Lenght are more important than Tonnage)

[Moeceefus]

let the moaning begin again, not that it ever ended

[Cap.Palla]

First 10 minutes of game with 1.2 patch:



Ships AI decreased , on board clocks still shows only hours .

I really don't want to spend other words for these crackers gang called UBI!!

[oscar19681]

So its official!! They dropped the most important things from the orginal patch list!

•Shadow optimizations
•Fixed very slow eye light adaptation after a lost device (alt-tab
•Crewmen on deck change clothes during bad weather
•SH4 ships can now be imported (useful for modders).
•Improvements in the reward system for U-boats in the dynamic campaign
•Improvements to the AI
•Changes to accommodate RU localization will therefore be present in patch 1.2, but will not affect players in a visible form

Call me a moron but i was under the impression that if you delay a game or a patch you are actually adding or fine-tuning stuff but insted Ubi removed the most important features.
I have to be honoust i have to try the patch out for myself. But the feedback seems to confirm my bad feeling about this patch.
It would be totally complete if they deside that this will be the last patch. But hey it seems not fair to conclude anything untill i try the patch myself.

On the contrary, my fps in the interiors is better even with shadows.
I think the shadow performance is now better w/ nvidia cards.

[doomlordis]

Cant seem to get guys on deck after surfacing after a dive, anyone else?
