No, I won't do it, either. I'm not interested in standing trial for war crimes. Seriously, shooting people in a lifeboat, even "people" made out of electrons on my computer screen, doesn't interest me at all.

Iron Budokan · 02-02-07, 03:23 PM

I also expect they'll be like the people on the docks in SH3...they can't be "hurt" by your weapons.

JU_88 · 02-02-07, 03:23 PM

I wont MG them.....

Ill torpedo them instead....... MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! After all the Japanese DDs wont be taking any prisoners when they sink my boat. :rotfl:

The reality is the survivors are a bunch of polygons, I just cant seriously apply these levels of morality and political correctness over killing something that isnt dead or alive in the first place.

Its a game.

It's called make-believe and immersion.

And "political correctness"? When did refraining from massacring defenceless shipwrecked people become "political correctness"? I thought it was "murder"?

And here I was thinking I was in charge of a real-life submarine crew. Thank you so much for pointing that out to me.

Bah, I don't even shoot fishing boats in Silent Hunter III, so there you go:p.

Very likely.

You know what I should be able to do?

Pull up to a Japanese fishing boat, hand the sole female crewmember $20, and do the deed with her. This automatically restores your hull integrity to 100% (you see your sub rocking as this happens.) Afterwards, you can run over the fishing boat and get your money back! :rotfl:

Iron Budokan · 02-02-07, 03:45 PM

No, you've busted nothing, "mate". I know the polygon people on the docks can't be hurt because others on this board have said so. I've never done it myself, and if I had I would admit it.

You're better than I if it can be done. I'll very likely shoot at life-boats I see the first time "just to do it" or to see if they sink. Just like with the sea-gulls, ice bergs, and dock people.

But no, I'll let 99,99999999% of the life-boats live. Just like I let 99,99999999% of the fishing boats live.

What bothered me in SHIII was that land-based cannons and machine guns and search-lights couldn't be destroyed, meaning that even the smallest 6-inch AA gun could sink a battleship.

I suspect the survivors will be treated in a way where you can't shoot them, or at least get away with it (meaning the game would punish you severely for doing so) - otherwise the game would not have an E rating indeed.

What I suspect they will be actually for is capturing them for points, or just leaving them alone (perhaps to be picked up by their own ships). Which is cool in my book :p

Sailor Steve · 02-02-07, 05:11 PM

I imagine I'm really there. I sink ships and shoot down planes. I don't shoot unarmed men.
