RSRD Comments

/agree with most of what's been said. After recently reading 'clear the bridge' it's apparent that life in the Pacific for the Americans was quite a different ballgame than what the U-boats experienced all around.

Early on O'kane even mentions something reflecting the 'inevitable conclusion of the war'.

That said, I do sympathize about the easy pickings, despite running these mods. There are several places one can go and sit...and just wait for the ships to roll into the choke points almost 'assembly line' syle. There have been times I simply passed up ships or saved and exited because it was 'tedious' having to get in position and start the tracking over again immediately after sinking several others...

It's that 'grass is greener' thing though, if the modders were to reduce the traffic to virtually nothing, folks would complain bitterly about 'nothing to shoot at' and 'not being realistic'... dunno what the answer is...

The only answer is creating something with balance. I think RSRD does that. I have had days of patrolling and finding nothing. Then other patrols were all hell breaks loose. RSRD is certainly better than stock.

/agree 100% with that. I would not be playing this game without rsrd and tmo or rfb. It's no stretch to say that mods MAKE this game.

I was extremely disappointed at the released version, I guess that's why I'm not so charged up about SHV.

<------ btw I hate this current avatar...

Popeye the Sailor was a great cartoon. I grew up watching Popeye.

I knew I'd catch hell for that, I just wasn't a fan...
