Maybe this is the "wolfpack code" designed to make other U-boats stick to the player sub to recreate group behavior.

Maybe Robert Mitchums the captain and just wont let go

Haven't had this happen yet, mind you haven't played much yesterday or today as the master Servers seem to be borked.

HA! I was thinking the exact same thing. Kept remembering the line "Well... he certainly squirms like a pigboat".

Well, me and Hymie might have a surprise for him!

It´s a hidden Ubi DRM policy

Now seriously i think that could be a broken script, perhaps following the u-boat and requesting assistance to other units , like hunter killer groups, but not funtional.

Well I got sick of him hangin' around so I went to PD, turned into him, kept the scope up and when he was at 600m, 0 AOB, Bearing 0, I let him have it.

Quite satisfying, really!

This is almost exactly what happened to me. Had 1 following just like John Channing described. Put on the speed, upped the TC, and wham. Got me.

I had the same thing first patrol but it was friendly. He finally went away but was a pain. The only saving grace wace the patrol mode to keep friendly from tripping TC
