My Initial Impressions

[Aviar]

Just really started playing since 1.3 was released. Some observations after a short session:

1. The Gamma setting changed the gamma on my entire computer, including all of my other games and even my desktop. Man, that is very poor programming. It's also the kind of thing that really infuriates people and turns them off to your game. You really don't want the settings in your game affecting your entire computer.

2. No hot-key (keyboard command) for the Attack Map?

3. I was under attack and in Silent Running when all of a sudden I hear a loud whistle and a guy yelling about a watch change. Too funny. It's small details like this that can really kill the immersion....something that is very important in a game like this.

4. I keep hearing what appears to be a woman's voice calling out bearing readings. A woman serving on a WWII sub? Again, a small detail that kills the immersion. What were the devs thinking?

5. I'm surprised at the low frame rates. Although I have almost all the graphic settings on high, I have a fast computer and expected the game to run a lot faster.
