#2+DID.
External on, but use it only for screenies. Well, almost only for that...
Gods eye on and no, I´m not going for manual targeting but I have no weapon officer helping me. Makes 80%.

Is that semi realistic

Snorkle · 04-03-09, 05:08 AM

#2 at 86%, D.I.D like Roald Larsen, Gods Eye ON, everything else off.
TC usually below 128 except for empty homeward runs.
Hoping to understand how to plot 100% manually soon.
Full manual torp setting in the TDC, not even using the datapad.

I'm assuming "DiD" means "Dead I'm Dead." Been here 5+ years or so and never saw that term used here before.

In any event #2. It isn't "realistic" for the captain to madly rush from station to station like he's the only competent crewmember on board (or the only one on board).

As long as you're enjoying the game, it's the right level for you.

Now excuse me, my U-boat just succumbed to a 4 hour depth charging and I have to go kick my girlfriend out of the bathroom

How odd, considering all the threads devoted to it. It simply means "Dead is Dead", meaning you've died, the career is over and there is no way you would resurrect it by reloading an earlier save.

80% + DID.I don't like manual targetting and I don't think it was the captain's job anyway was it?I do have a house rule though that I must have sight of the target for at least five minutes before I can launch unless it's very close range.Not sure how realistic this is.
For me DID is the thing that generates the excitement.That's where the fear and the joy comes from.It hurts when suddenly it's all over but it's all good character building stuff.
