I know it's only a game, but... (ONLY A GAME!?!?!?!) - Page 2

Ever since I learned the key shortcuts I've never used the icons. Too much risk of a crash!

I think most of the problems I'm encountering are acceptable, and I'll tell you why, lol. This machine is WAY under spec. for the game, yet it still runs. Amazing

. I have a processor that's too slow and only half the "minimim" memory. Decent graphics card though. Gettings a new machine next week thank goodness. It'll be nice to have things running smoothly for once. On Patrol 19 now and after "bobbing" all the way back to port last patrol (running submerged 'til the batteries were almost shot then surfacing 'til they were re-charged, I was almost out of fuel) I'm not looking forward to having to do that again. Nice to hear about the lockable external view, must give that a try. I still have a few unanswered questions though. Anybody able to shed some light? (Read earlier posts)

happened a few times to me, but then i just reloaded it and did it again.

i avoid crew management completely by disabling the fatigue factors.... at my stage my crew is pretty decorated and experienced and they dont' tire as much. plus the crew tire too quickly in the stock version anyways, it's more annoying than realistic.

I sank 3 ships in a convoy, saved and exited, got back in the game and then returned to port happy to have sunk 3 big ships in my first patrol. I get back and even though my map showed they were sunk when I reoaded it, I get no credit for them. SH3 Commander shows I sunk them though. It drove me absolutely crazy!!!!!! I play this game with a couple of friends while talking over Teamspeak VOIP, and I can tell you they had to shield their ears for all the yelling I did.
