That's an awful big target you're sailing on.

Sink my boat. I would like to see these interior flooding animations.

My better half is of the same breed, i think. We watched "Das Boot" together and she really liked the movie. We did not use the english subtitles, though.
It's not that they are not good or that they distract you from the movie experience, it's just that we are german.

She fully understands my gaming hobby and likes "The Simpsons", "Family Guy", "Star Wars", "Band of Brothers" and "Das Boot."

What should i say, the Wedding is on Saturday.

@Topic:

I will install the game and while it does so, i'll download the Release Patch which adds features that did not make it into the release Version of the Game, e.g.

• Weather Model
• Water Model
• U-Boat Interiors
• Weather Effects
• Water Effects
• Buoyancy Model
• Explosion Effects
• Enemy Ships
• Dynamic Campaign
• U-Boats

After applying the patch, i'll doubleclick the SH5 Icon, Start a Training Mission and Crash to Desktop. After that, i'll update every possible driver for my system.
After i am done with that, i'll probably downgrade every possible driver again, because on the Forums they say, that it runs well with older drivers.

Then i'll update all drivers again and keep torturing myself with the CTDs while waiting for the second patch.

Nothing from the age of sail? Strange for a man with the Lucky Jack moniker.

Wonder when we'll get mods for it making it even better to play and sail with.

And pray for the GWX team to come out of retirement and work their magic with the sim and make it even better.

I could not possibly list everything.
But you have a point there. To clear this up:
"Master and Commander" does not reside on the DVD shelf. I always take the Box to bed with me.
Me and my Wife both love this movie also.

All of O’Brians "Aubrey and Maturin" Books are neatly arranged right beside the "Hornblower" Books by C.S. Forester. As some kind of ritual, we watch "Master and Commander" and "Captain Horatio Hornblower R.N." both on 1st of January.
I read the complete "Aubrey and Maturin" and "Hornblower" Tales once a year.

What we not do is playing Whist.

First, I'll start by spending a weekend or longer playing it. (depending on when it is released and whats going on in real life at the time) Then I'll begin spending the next week trying to figure out how to mod it so that we can enable historically accurate flags and other markings.

[Task Force]

I KNOW WHAT IL DO!!!

Get... sunk... err... thats what ill do...

[danurve]

Check out the tutorials, the game, & wait for patch #1.

I'm sure some alcohol will be involved.

[Donkey-Shot11]

Blow stuff up!

install the first repair patch they just released since thats about the time i expect to be purchasing it


so you guys will get about a 6 to 8 month head start on me as far as playing sh5

Hint - You cook it the same as Galahs here in Australia:
Place bird in large pot, half fill with water and add a tablespoon of salt, bring to the boil and add an old leather boot, cook for a few hours, strain out all the contents into another bowl and throw over the side, except the boot, this you serve with parsley and a sprinkle of pepper to taste.
