I loved to play the SH series but whit SH5 there is so many new things that i have a hard time to adopt my normaly playstyle i had through the serie to this one.

1. The targeting system is a very odd one ( Guess its time to learn how to do it manually if someone have time to put up a small breifing how to do it for sh5) Give us the old tdc back and targeting system.

2. The interface/gui is not ww2 alike. I miss the gauges, the compass etc.

3. giving orders to crew members. well try to give orders to the gunners,, Where are the orders to the gunners??? I have to climb down my self as captain and fire up that big bertha. Same as whit the AA gun.
And why do i have to climb down the ladders to the bottom and run through the sub just to give some simple orders to someone to do thier speciality skill?

4. Navigation, why cant i set the turn rate i want. I used to do that when i was evading a warship. Now its either, 1 degree to port or full to port.

5 Sonar man never reports any contact. When i sit down at the station i cant interact whit it. spin the wheel, ping etc even if the station is highlighted that iam supposed to do it.

6. WO have his "talk_to_me_captain" mark allways over his head. and its either, man the deckgun. man the flakgun, How is your wife!!!! C´mon. After 30 days at sea he does not even know if he still have a wife waiting for him.
And the watch officers never use an binocular anymore, Il guess they have eaten a lot of carrots so they have hawkeyes.

7. The chef. Doing same soup now for 30 days.

8 Battle stations, The crew just stay in the beds. No sound or nothing that indicate that we are in battle station. No tense raising.

9. Gunner at the aft torpedo room stays there even if my WO shout Man the deckgun, (after he have explained how his wife are doing)

10. Best place to be is in the captain bed

11. where is the radio and the gramophone? how to activate it?


well the game have potential but i think its up to us, the community/modders to make the game we want. The developers have left out so many things.
And since i love to play SH i will continue to do so whit this unpolished gem also. Iam sure it will get better later on.

The graphics are greate in the game. I have a 5970 card (darn expensive one) and i can run the game at full settings and have no problems whit lagg etc.
But the sound is a bit odd. specially the explosions from a ship. Its to low volume for explosions of that magnitude.
