Actually, I never have, not even my very first time. I had most of the options selected, although I had the event camera, external camera and map contact on, and had manual targetting off.

A side note: one of my gripes about playing MP are the default difficulty levels it has. I could wish for an intermediate level between their 'normal' and 'hard' settings.

I never use manual targetting, and keep the camera (I like to make screenies). I would do manual targetting if there was an AI captain patrol where I shipped as torpedo officer.

I play 0% now, and has done that even since I got the game, which must have been over a year and a half......

Never have. Even when learning there's such a thing as too easy.

Yeah, I never have either, but I got to thinking about it and might give it a try. It might be good for a giggle factor.

I dont know what I`m at, but probably +\- 70%. (Nobody can take my external cam away! Or my weapons officer!)

I have never played at 0%, I felt limited fuel and torpedoes at least had to be turned on, even in the beginning.

I've never played in 0%. I don't see the point. It's far too easy in my opinion. Usually I play something between 40-70%, but my new year's resolution is to try 100%

The two things which took me a long time to get rid of were the WO assist and the map contact updates. Now the manual plotting and targeting are the things I find most interesting... Am now trying my first manual navigation patrol (no sub icon on the map) Having great fun, will make a post about it when I get back home. (If I find Salamis again...)

I think I might have once in SHI days when first tyring to learn the controls. For SHIII I jumped straight to 84% as I like to see what's happening outside with the external camera. I don't use it to cheat but just to see stuff I want to take screenies of.

yeah i started on 0% when i first got the game but it didnt stay at 0% for long the only thing i have off are manual targeting because i still cant work out how to do it and from what ive read it seems far too long and drawn out to do it in the first place for me
