New realistic way to play SH3 GWX. (no time compression)

[Gotmilk]

Hello dear sailors. I have invented a new immersive way to play SH3 with GWX. Maybe some of you have done that before. Yesterday at 15.35 i started my brand new patrol. So i synced my ingame time to 15.35 and started the patrol.

The thing is that i will not use time compression. So now my sub has been traveling almos 20 hours. It takes 5-6 days to reach my patrol area. The game will run 24/7 for me and i will live two alternate lives. One is real life doing my everyday stuff and other life is where i am commander of a german submarine. So the question is how can i play this game 24/7. Well yesterday i went to sleep i putted my submarine under water and in silent mode and let it to proceed hes course. Today morning i woke up. I checked if everything was fine. I surfaced to boat and reloaded batterys and new air and CO2. Just right before i went to work i dove the boat again in silent running. I hope that if any enemy appear my sub will pass unnoticed. So when i get back home i will surface the boat again and proceed my patrol on surface.

I have two computers on my table. The PC is for everyday stuff. I usually learn 3ds Max or Maya. But the second comupter witch is laptop is running SH3 24/7

So when i am home i use my PC and when i get some message or contact in SH3 i will jump to my laptop and start to make operations.

The only concern is what happens if my computer locks up or my boat will die under enemy fire while i am away. Then i load the game from last save point. (I save game in every 8 hours) and sync my ingame clock with TC. So my ingame clock will be the same time as in real life. And i pretend that nothing happened

The reason why i play this way is because i dont have lot of time to play SH3 constantly. Playing this way is a lot easier and more realistic. I jump out of my boots when i get a contact after 16 real life hour on patrol.

Oh yeah and one thing more. Tonight i slept with my earplugs on. The GWX underwater interior sounds are perfect. I really have feeling that i slept entire night in a submarine.

From now on i will post my daily logs of that patrol. (i know that i wont sink any enemy ships cause i am too noob to hit anything.)

And i play realism on 100%


EDIT: And i call this kind of gameplay "Captain SleepALot" Because my boat captain is virtually sleeping 16 hours every day and cannot make critical decisions. Every day i am about 6 hours behind my computer. So this 6 hours are the only hours when captain can call the shots
