Ahoy Me Hearties !
Avast Ye ! Shiver Me Timbers etc etc
Hi all, Another nautical cove newbie hooked on the Silent Hunter Series I've been dabbling with Sub Sims for a while but didnt really get into them until I had SHV as a gift. I'm slowly progressing thorugh the game and loving every minute (in frequent CTDs an execption ) How does my machine know how to crash at the precise point I'm about to finish off 2 merchants under a 3 destroyer escort ? I attack both merchants with one still afloat after my 1st run, both are successfully hit but the destroyers come looking complete with depth charges with my name on them. I crash dive to avoid ASDIC detection narrowly avoiding their attack. I swim underneath the reamaing merchant to come up the other side with my aft Torpedo ready to fire. Raise to periscope depth, Destroyers start pinging me again, I have seconds to get the shot away and crash dive to get out of trouble. LOS!....... Screen Freeze with a "BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP". This by the way was going to exceed the 50,000 tonnes required to finish the East Coast mission...... Suffice to say several expletives followed Still, I'm so glad I dodnt venture down the WoW path ! Hope to see you all on here and make your aquaintance |
