No screen of the TDC. But i heard a rumour that you can bind it to your XBOX 360 controller on the Y Key (Calculate solution, selects best torpedo, open tube and fire, all this by pressing one button).

Guess you need to walk infront of it, to use it. Maybe. But who knows.

Since you were mostly on the "enemy" side of SH5, from the beginning, it really must be a bitter "victory" . Don't worry, at least we'll be able to mod the IX in the game since the save games are...

Oh , wait...

It's not a "victory"--that would imply a competition--just the thinkings of a realist.

Besides, it isn't the game I've been against, it's the "you're wrong, don't judge SH5 until you play it because I know it will be the best thing ever, even though I haven't played it either!!!!" attitude of some posters. See, hyperbole and hypocrisy don't go down too well with me. Perhaps a personal failing...perhaps not.

hahahahhahaha

a TDC is an important part of gameplay and will most likely make it in.

now, being serious. I hope that you don't actually play with the knobs but rather tell the floating head how to set it.

perhaps you are naïve and expect too much of people?

to the last part. I play SH3 with auto-TDC because I figure as Kaleun it's not my job to do that stuff.

Perhaps I'm not and I don't? Are you charging for this consultation, btw?

I guess, you will take the data and say it to XO, and he will charge in TDC.

thanks for the screenshot, so there is a TDC.

the question is if there are a dedicated screen for it, is automatic , or exist in the interior of the boat

From the videos there is a lack of a lot of information about how game play will happen. It seems like the primary (only?) focus is on glitzy graphic eyecandy.

I do hope that Ubi releases a video that shows plotting and targeting to let the more serious simulation-loving players know what to expect.
