Since the Patch ...

Xebec · 06-10-08, 09:21 AM

A few things that for me have changed. I did the 1st 1/3 of the war on the original issue and have restarted on the whole war with the patch. After 7 deployments, I have compared the results as follows:
1. On two occassions, new detections while submerged and periscope down.
2. On numerous occassions, the game has returned to 1x time but no ships were sighted.
3. After 7 deployment with captain #1, I had destroyed 14 merchants and 8 warships. But with Captain #2 after 7 deployments, I have 1 merchant and 13 warships. Have not even found a merchant on the last two deployment with a deck gun now installed!
4. Have seen more neutrals, german subs, the Dreadnaught and the "Preussen" on 3 occassions.
5. Fuel is consumed faster (more realistic). Will have to be careful when deployed to the West of Ireland.

None of the above are serious. Still finding enough targets.

I keep forgetting to buy this game.

I guess I better remedy that and buy it here.

No more lame excuses.

I bought this game and even though my computer exceeds the specs it needs, my computer can't seem to handle it for some reason. I think they need to adjust their listed system requirements. It amazes me that SHIII with GWX 2.1 which has better graphics and keeps track of a lot more variables than this game runs smooth as silk while Shells of Fury drops down to about a frame or two every minute (And don't even think about it's performance when I step out onto the bridge to get a look outside). I still havn't figured out why this thing is such a resourse hog.
