I started playing this game a week ago and I'm already addicted.I'm not very good but I'm working on it.I only play on manual targeting.I refuse to play on auto aim.The tutorial vids are a life saver for me.When I say I use manual targeting I mean TDC.I'm not good enough to plot 100% realistic in the U-boats. I'd like to see a manual aiming video down under combat conditions.You know,escorts all over you when you pop the periscope up.I have big problems with dealing with the escorts.I could use some suggestions.Thank you all for your help.
