I still play 688i once in a great while and the autocrew performs far more efficiently than the autocrew does in either SC or DW modded or not.
How do you know the Kilo didn't have you in it's sights also?

Seriously, I like both SC and DW, SC being my preferred option, but that's a personal choice. Whilst I agree that the Autocrew could be improved upon if you like to play the CO's role in the sim, I find manning the sonar quite rewarding. In fact the only Autocrew I leave switched on is TMA, which is just too much for me to want to learn. I have played SC since it came out in the UK and added the SCX mod when it was released, which greatly improved the sim no end. My only gripe is that sometimes the AI isn't as challenging as I would like it to be, but other than that a top notch sim in my opinion. Never played 688i so can't compare SC and DW with it.
