My initial thoughts

Just started playing last night and I think that it is awesome. I got depth charged and was on the bottom with a flooded engine room and I had to figure out what to do and a strategy to get repairs and the flooding under control. On a different encounter was able to tell me sonarman to calculate a firing solution using his hydrophone. I feel that the silent hunter series did some things well, but in this game I feel more like I am commanding a submarine and it is way more immersive. Some things are not intuitive and I've learned tips by reading the loading screen like for instance in rough seas at periscope depth have the engineer man the dive planes to reduce the risk of broaching the surface accidentally. A few bugs here and there, but overall I think this game is great.
