Default Found the real game!

Just started a new carreer without contact update on map (no god eyes).
This is the real game!!!! In surface, we have to use the info of the watch officer to place marker on the map for the ship position to get the good AoB, speed and range. In submerged it s a real nightmare to get correct info in rough weather! My hit ration is down to 4 or 5 on 10 from 9 on ten when I used the update option. On type VII, I was used to make home with 30K+ tons, now I m happy with 10K

Indeed. Every torpedo hit is a major success. its hard enough to do it in perfect position without a DD catching wind of you. Late war you'll wonder how they ever sank anything.

Yes, very challenging and thrilling. I played this way when I was doing WaW. Loved it.
