Too Deep or Not Too Deep

McHub532 · 04-11-10, 12:37 PM

My Cheif of the Boat is telling me he is impressed with the boat and it's welds, etc. He says he thinks she can easily go down to 200 meters.

But.. whenever I hit the 170 meter mark someone starts warning me that we are going too deep.

What gives?

You can still continue to descend, but at 20-30 meters lower if you keep that depth or go even lower, the hull will start taking damage, and eventually you'll sink

Deepest i've been so far was about 212 meters.

He "should" warn you. You're exceeding the test depth of the sub. The manufactor's warranty won't "cover" you beyond test depth!

I 've gone to 175 meters and then my sub crashed. But I didn't hear a warning.

convoy hunter · 04-11-10, 02:23 PM

The only thing I heard before the boom was the dive command.

Always wake up the Helmsman when executing such high-risk maneuvers!

You regarding the sub crashing into the IRL ship in the SUN article?

Or the fact that the old fart at the chart table in-game is worthless and doesn't do anything in the game?

alexradu89 · 04-11-10, 03:44 PM

Both I guess...
