1xTC is Worse!

Damn it, fanatisism killed by reason.

The problem with playing at 1xTC is that you tend to ignore the computer a lot, and hence can actualy miss more stuff than if you play atentively at reasonable time compressions like 128xTC. Examples of this are people going to the bathroom, going to eat, watering the garden or any other activity that might make you miss the exact moment when your sub get's bombed by a plane

Not that using time compression is... completely satisfactory... let's hope SHIV is improved in this regard

However, I still feel some kind of weird respect for those who have acomplished this feat, and I keep telling myself that I will someday do at least one patrol at 1xTC

Played 1x for 8 days running once then my PC crashed.

Have never bothered after that.

I know what you mean, but it is the same kind of respect one would have for someone who writes long word documents in binary code for no real reason.
