Hi all!

So, this is my first post. Even before brewing tea; I must be mad.

So, I saw The Mighty Jingles play Cold Waters. I used to love my Harpoon classic and Silent Hunter (back in the day when PC screens had less than 16 colours) so I figured I give it a go.

Admission: I downloaded the game illegally. Yes, I know. Pirates are targets for a torp. I did that to test the game on my hardware and see if I did like it before actually buying it on Steam. Which I now have, so I deleted the other copy. There, I do think games devs these days should put more demos out there.

Anyway, hello! I'm Belgian / Dutch / German / British, 41 years old, married to Barbara, two kids: Erik and Nova. I spend my time working, writing, tinkering with my '82 XT550, camping out and playing.

LEGO
Kerbal Space Program
CMANO
World of Tanks / Warships
OpenTTD

I've been playing Cold Waters for a couple of days now, but I've already shot a Tango at point-blank range, left the water like a dolphin on speed, killed a Foxtrot with his own torpedos and been sunk quite a lot.

Especially in that 'stop the amphibs'-mission, with a Krivak hammering away with active sonar and passing out torps as if they were cookies.

OK, I'll be back soon. Now watch a JiveTurkey vid, learn about torpede evasion. I need it.
