"We're sinking, sir!"

[Safe-Keeper]

Is it just me, or does anyone else, read all of you, experienced suddenly finding himself at 100+ metres depth because flooding was pulling the boat down without you realizing it? Personally, I'd like it if there was a message from an officer (Chief Engineer?) going "We're sinking, sir!" or "Flooding is pulling the boat down, sir!" to alert me to the fact that the boat is starting to descend.

Yeah, theres nothing worse than putting the scope up, to see nothing but water.

Then you glance at the depth meter and realise you're about to crush.

When your busy trying to get repair work done, or avoiding the killer blow from the enemy, it would be nice to know when your about to be crushed paper thin!!

[Safe-Keeper]

Well, they tell you that, by informing you that you're "diving too deep".

"Oh, and skipper, you know how the boat is sinking due to the flooding, even though no one's bothered to inform you? Well, now we're five seconds away from crush depth. Just thought you'd like to know".

You gotta admit, they've got a certain charm.

Another nice feature for the "Easy" difficulty level would be for the game to tell you what your crush depth was at any given time. Like, "U-538 Type VII-C
Hull Integrity: 46%
Crush Depth: 95 m"

It does have a certain sadistic charm indeed. :rotfl::rotfl:

Sometimes I think my boat is completely crewed by Steven Wright clones. Either that or the Engineer from "Galaxy Quest."

This brings me back to my rant on lack of fog warnings!! when the watch cant see where the hell they are going (due to poor weather conditions,) it would be very helpful to hear a "visibility - nil / poor - sir" from one of there filthy cake holes.
What im saying is - we should be automatically be notified about changes in the weather rather than have to ask for it.

Actually I´ve done this already in SH3!
I combined a message from "Das Boot" if the depth of 160 Meters is reached... then a sound comes up.. " 160 Meter... Boot ist nicht mehr zu halten Kaleun" which means.. " sir u-boat at 160 metres... we are not able to maintain depth" or something similar to english.
At the moment I only hav the german sound from "Das Boot"!
