Strange Encounter (stopped ship)

Dignan · 04-24-11, 12:54 PM

Last night during a patrol I encountered a small freighter south of Iceland. I then noticed while at periscope depth that the sonar wasn't picking anything up on this ship. The reason was that it wasn't moving at all. I approached it cautiously submerged. Got to about 2500 meters to have another pick. It was a Polish freighter. I torpedoed it but definitely found it odd. It was all alone, south of Iceland and wasn't moving at all. ANyone else every seen this happen?

There's a sticky thread called lets play silent hunter 5. In one of the first few videos the dude encounters a Polish freighter in a German controlled canal. It was sitting at all stop too. Probably a bug

This might be a bug too because every time I torpedo it, I get a CTD.
