ASDIC - The other white meat

No. That message doesn't mean they have a lock on you. It's a clue that they may, but they may not.
If the pings start coming very fast I will usually go to flank.

I wouldn't stop, even at that depth. I know you are waiting but at a knot and a half you're not going to move very far. But even that little bit should make you a tougher target. Also if you have to go to flank to avoid a drop you'll already be moving and can get to speed faster.

I agree

I prefer to play with external cam on for screenies and beta testing purposes (well thats my excuse anyway)

.... So I tend to wait until it's about 200 metres off then open the throttle and set the rudder hard over and planes at a steep dive...when your in his baffles, see which way he turns, turn the opposite way and go to silent running before he's 90 degrees to you
