I Have Not Played SHIII in Six Weeks

johan_d · 07-08-06, 07:06 AM

Well, I am just new, discovered the game just a week ago. I had then added GW mod, and use SH COmmander and SHGen, what makes this wonderfull and immersive expierience.

About the up and down effect, well, with SHCommander I did set the waves Seasonal, and they were big in a storm just below the Irish coast. I did had to let go a target due to the bad weather. Followed the poor merchant for a couple of hours, but after spilling one torpedo I decided it had just pure luck. I went, further SE, en after a day or so got slightly better weather, where I found another victim who I sunk.

Anyhow, we were shaking all over..

I am recovering from a head injury and I can't work or lift more than 20 pounds for the next few weeks.
Even walking more than two blocks makes me woozy.

So the good part is I've been playing SH3 pretty constantly for several days!

Even SH3 makes me tired, after a while. But its nice to be back into the game - and just in time for the new release of Commander, too!

Take care with your head then.. slow ahead.. lol.

I am also looking into the mission design part.. where I live, a lot had happened what is barely known, Operation Switchback area.
After DDay the Germans are been pushed up north and escaped by boat over the river Scheld, Netherlands. I remember as a kid seeing the Uboat nets here ashore. A massive heap of steel rings. I'm just 40 years old, so you have an idea how long they have been laying here..
Anyhow, after Antwerp was lost to the Allies, convoys started to come in there, while the rest of the Netherlands was in German hands for a winter..
So, you can imagine it has mission potential, just look at the map, a giant death trap for uboats..

According to my career files my last save was on March 27th, 2006. But, hey ya gotta give the sim a break every once in a while or it starts to become stale. Or is that heresy?

This holds true for all immersive games, you like it so much, then you have an OD. It can take months to recover, if you evently do.. if..

I have the same with Flightsim, been a real buff on that for years, but its almost gone. After all you seen it all, no more suprises and so.

It comes back in waves, but each time they seem to be smaller..
