I am replying to a GAME forum.. If you want to be an editor, well, I am sure there are many positions somewhere where you live..
I make mistakes all the time. People correct me. I thank them for the correction and make a point to do better in the future. It's all part of being an adult.

But you're right, and I apologize. It is just a gaming forum, and people should be allowed to show their lack of education without comment.

Maybe I just have good eyesight .

Other than that I spot ships that the game doesn't sometimes even in dense fog, I can make out their shapes in the fog, not all that hard if you're paying attention. (But not at a great distance)

It's partly a game thing. Sometimes they don't see things that are obvious. Same with sound - on one hand they don't hear things that you can easily hear, but on the other they hear things right through solid land.

Well, you have been playing the game since it came out, as you say. So you must have learned years ago that the player is always better than the watch crew at spotting ships, and is always better than the hydrophone operator at hearing them.

However, in dense fog, I guarantee you aren't seeing them at the 300+ meters required to arm the torpedoes, unless you are using the "x-ray vision" exploit.

But, hey, you've already established that you have a, shall we say, remarkable playing style.
