Hull integrity in GWX

Bloody Bill · 02-16-07, 10:08 AM

Just out of curiosity, I have loaded GWX and noticed that the hull integrity % is no longer on the damage management screen. Was that intentional? It would be helpful since I got my type 9 shot up, fixed the damage, dove to evade, and the boat crushed at 140 meters.

Thanks

Yes, that's intentional.
If you want it back, get the latest SH3Commander...it has an option to enable it again.

I find the % hull deal kind of a gimme'. How would an engineer know what the exact hull % is? He would not. All he could do is make recommendations to dive deep or not.I was hoping the GWX team could come up with a hull integrity of "good" "fair" "no way in hell would I dive" type deal instead of the exact %. Just a little more realism. Anyway, I've got bitten by the no hull integrity % showing

Good idea there... problem is that on one hand it is right to say they wouldn't be good enough to tell exactly, on the other it is surprising they would be so stupid they don't have any clue...
I think it's the same problem with range given by WO : it's too much he can give a range precise to the meter, it's not enough he can't say anything at all.
So each player makes a choice according to his own taste...

True!

I like the hull integrity showing because IMO there would be some kind of understanding as to what damage had been sustained....(if not a really accurate one)

Well, yes...there is that

. I do not use the % scale for hull. I just use my intuition and how bad I just go my butt kicked.
