Aircraft carrier

Blue-Casket · 04-04-10, 08:07 AM

Finally after two whole months sailing i managed to find the aircraft carrier !

Now i sank it quickly wit 3 direct hits from a salvo.
Everything ok u think?
Well think again!
Now those destroyers are following me for 5 days.
When i'm speeding away from them they follow me.
Don't ask me how but they have probably somekind of rope tied to my periscope or something.
Now the thing that pisses me off the most is that when i try to be brave and try to sink them, they sail away to keep thesame distance around 3600 meters

That's the final drop of frustrations to me in this game.

I just wait until the patches are out because this is really a big shame for silent hunter 5.

It's a common bug. Simply save and reload and they'll go away.

Or run them aground!

I must be lucky, I sank 2 in 2 days. but I just restarted my whole campaign on the second one & on my very fist patrol. But would you think that count as tonnage toward my kills? But Nooo they only want Cargo ships. Must be to early in the war for me, I ran along slightly parallel @ 18 knots for a couple hundred miles till I was far enough to sneak in 4680 m with plenty of time to set up my shot & sunk Her with 2 torpedo's. Then as I was sitting there sunk 2 destroyers looking for me. I watched for a little while & they didn't really come after me at all so I dropped down to 100 feet an went the other direction. My guess why they went so hard after you must be cause it's later in the war for you.

I have to say though that is a ridiculous amount of explosion for 1 torpedo

It seems to me you need an AI mod to give the DD's a little more bite.
