I think this might be in vain. They made it very clear that they had to abandon this project after they were barely able to make 1.3.

There needs to be an outlet though for this, hopefully a civil one at that

I never saw a "Red" Radar screen when I was in the Navy. Maybe they had them in WWII.

This is really just a discussion thread. Apparently bugs will be present as we all know but some things that might appear to be bugs may not be. Please post the new things that are great as well. Let's not start tying UBI to the whipping post

yep, cool touch really. I'm working so the patch will have to wait for me

The focus on the all the negative really gets old. Let's give them an atta'boy for what is done well and is new. That's my feelings on it.

Agreed. And let's not forget to have fun. This is a terrific sim, warts and all. I have been an avid sim player since 1990 or thereabouts and this is simply the best. The way it creates an authentic historic atmosphere and sense of drama is remarkable. I build my own missions. I could wish for a more highly featured mission builder but even so, with these superb visuals I feel like a movie director when putting these adventures together. The 1.3 patch has done things for the views that do credit to my big H/D displays. It is so good I play most of my missions from external camera views. Quite stunning. And all of this for less than the cost of a good bottle of Scotch. I recommend "Empire of the Sun" for a real visual feast which can be found by visiting the mission builder section of this forum.

Of course, we hope UBI will continue with the patches. In the meantime I just pretend the occasional glitch is a defect in the machinery which I am sure was the case in real life. I am delighted with this product.

best wishes,

I hinted at this yesterday but no one bit so here it is.

The next time you fire a torp and miss go to F11 and listen...

END OF RUN EXPLOSIONS!

Just like real life. A very nice, subtle touch.
