The destroyer group that was matching your course and speed following you, RAN INTO AN ISLAND while following you? Are you kidding me?

I get the enemy ship "shadowing" me every patrol, matches course and speed but usually just 1 destroyer. You can't get close to it, so I always make them crash into land. Had it happen 4 times while patrolling off Norway I think. Minutes after I had run one aground, another took its place. Really annoying, as is the magical people underwater.

Interesting review But i'm noticed on screenshots that at 1940 only one mission is completed. It looks like the game has permanent online disconnection Maybe strange behavior of ships lies beyond crack of game?

This game is rubbish. What a waste of $50.

If the game is untouched by hackers, then missions will not solve that behavior. I'm just hears many rumors that cracked game have some glitches, similar to this one...

Same here, it begs the question...

Just where are these troop transports heading to in the north sea 1 week after war broke out?

By the course mine were heading the likely target was either somewhere in the Baltic or Norway, either way the Tommy's sure mobilized fast!

Funny shots if it wasnt so sad, really. Who was it from UBI who said they werent satisfied with SH5 when released... Well that is the understatement of the year!

Oh well, Im a patient man, I can wait another year, plenty of other games to enjoy.

Default Stupid me stupid AI...

Another day another patrol...

So I decided I will go to Plymouth. When I was in canal I encountered a convoy with one DD protecting it. So I sunk the DD (he was actually trying to avoid my torpedo ). So only merchants left. Easy job... ?
I sunk some with torpedoes then went to surface to use cannon. But they got a few lucky hits and destroyed my engines...


Destroyed diesel engines...


Destroyed electric engines...


Flooding level: 100% hmm ?

There was a merchant left so I went upstairs to take it out. So what to do now. No engines. And my sub in on surface. Some time later an airplane showed up, but it didn`t attack me... after the airplane I got report of smoke on horizon. So I got to periscope level. And guess what, they send carrier my way. Escorted with some destroyers.



Carrier...

Remember my engines didn`t function so I could only wait..
But he got on my way... I fired some torpedoes at it but hit a DD instead. So I went on surface to use my cannon... And sunk her with one shell



bye bye carrier



So you only need 1 shell to sink a carrier and 20-30+ to sink a merchant ????



well destroyer escort eventualy put me out of busines. But what an end...
Another carrier went down.


I was defeated on 1940, Aug, 4
With total tonage of: 2137980

Guess I won the WAR

I didn`t do any missions! So I don`t know how I completed the first one!


There she goes...

Always out of torpedoes and shells...
And now without a submarine.

If unit can`t sink, it will fly



As I said above...



Happy times, ammo just minits away...



Just as unprotected convoys, happy times...



Game still thinks the ship is ok...



Help from above, the mighty Luftwaffe



Trying to hit airplane...



Trying to hit DD...



And another one...


There goes the plane...

Hi, nice pics.
How do you get air support? Can you call for it, or does it show up if you report convoys, or it just shows up randomly? I'm not very far jet in my game, don't have much time to play.

Oh and one shot carrier kills plus the rest? There aren't enough palms and faces out there to convey what I feel!

How could a developer play this game and not see any of this?
