Battle Stations

im not a fan of this at all.
experience can perfect how a crew does things, morale is insignificant cos theyre fighting for their very survival. they will always do as instructed cos theyre a professionally trained team, every individual relies on each doing their job. to for a single crew member not do that would be 'suicide' for that individual.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
my take on human psychology =
-people panic, freeze under stress cos they want to survive. portrayed as johan in das boot.
-the easiest way to be suicidal in a uboat [besides the captains lugar] is to be more aggressive and dedicated.
------------------------------------------------------------------
perhaps morale should be treated as a random system failure that is scripted to potentially occur in the heat of battle, or prolonged depth charging? a single random crew member fails to react, so you get someone else to cover for him. he doesnt get an iron cross, he gets a bullet or court-marshal instead. if they cant fix this, i'd be happy to see the morale issue removed from SH5.

just my thoughts.

It's the NEW IMMERSIVE FEATURE that the Devs spent years developing which gives you FULLY INTERACTIVE and REALISTIC ACTING Crewmen...

LoL Yeah, we need a FPS mod where you can bunnyhop and shoot your crew with Luger or Panzerscheck
