One done really well, or many done relatively well?

Sailor Steve · 02-21-11, 04:48 PM

Both ideas sound good to me, but I like the less-travelled road, like S-boats and V-boats, so I voted many "pretty good" ones over one "perfect" boat.

That's what we're paying your for. Isn't it?

And I'm sure he's more than happy to give you exactly what you've paid for.

I just prefer each boat be historically close as much as possible.

It depends, but I voted for the many types of subs being available.

I would be happy with the one type of submarine done really well, but I don't want a "submarine simulator" as somebody mentioned above. I don't want to trim the boat, load the tubes, operate the diving planes, flush the toilet type of simulator.

I prefer the "submarine commander simulator". I want to set up the attack, evade retaliation, and make those kind of decisions and let my crew operate the boat with a boat that behaves as realistically as possible within the confines of the game.

There are occasions that I decide to see a career through from beginning to end, rather than spend a few weeks in a certain period and boat, then bail for a new situation/challenge. On those occasions, after spending time in a S boat, scrutinizing all the variables, and executing the battle plans, involved to achieve low risk/high return iron-reef construction, being rewarded with a Gato (and those wonderful two additional forward tubes) is like being handed the keys to an F22! Lickety split I'm running to install the 3D TDC Radar mod in anticipation of playing with all the new capabilities & goodies. It would be great not to have to resort to file manipulation to achieve this feeling of glee. Thus, "Fairly Well" works for me.

I second Steve.

I did a little work on the Narwhal, I love the V-Boats.
