Trying out Dead is Dead play

I play DiD too, it adds alot to the game if your choices can cause you to start all over again. But whats up with the planes? Usually my Radar detects them and takes me outta TC with plenty of time to dive. What mods are you using?

I always play DiD. Loading a savegame is killing the immersion for me.

Ah yeah, the underwater detection by planes can be an issue, although this is true only of mods which allow planes to detect you underwater (TMO, OM, not sure if RFB also does this). In default game, this does not happen. My tip: either go very deep, or keep your periscope+radar out while cruising underwater. Unless you have a way of detecting the planes above you, the TC will not go to 1x until you take damage. In TMO, I believe planes can see down to 60ft, although only from a limited range. In late-war Operation Monsoon play, this gets VERY tough as the planes have ways to hit you up to 100m depth (I presume a simulation of MAD gear and/or FIDO torpedoes). But you just deal with that I guess...
