I can only find about 20 from bow to stern.
Where are they?
Less than 50.

The game is wrong. Type VII's typically would not have carried 52 crewmen aboard. If you look at the crew lists of Type VII's sunk during the war, you'll see the actual crew number was somewhere in the mid-40s.

Yup, 52 would be for a type IX.

I would have loved to see more crew inside the sub aswell, at least don't make them animate too much, and not stay in my way

really? I find that hard to belive. Why is animated crewmember so heavy on the graphics card? Surely there could be more demaning games out there, graphics-wise?

I mean, they dont have to render them all at once.
