I hope theres a way to take it out of the game as well as the bell in battle stations. Even the dc's and ship explosions aren't as loud as that whistle or bell.

Any way to diable both ?

all you need is some modder to find the sound file and edit it.

Same thing with all crew to battlestations when you are using silent running

There's nothing worse than having waving your arms frantically at the screen while going 'shhhhhhh' because of the watch change whistle going off or being told there's a 'SONAR CONTACT!!' Just while a destroyer is moving above you.

OK... it seems a lot of you missed basic training.

Lesson 1. When you engage the enemy GO TO GENERAL QUARTERS!

Not only do you get a bump in crew efficiency but you won't get the crew change whistle until you stand down.

Lesson over.

Yeah, but then my pants would never have got to experience a Starbucks cappucino, John. Wasn't General Quarters killed at the battle of little big horn?

Ummm teacher ? You forgot the part about not forgetting to setp down from GQ when possible or your crew will pass out eventually.

I often step down when running silent as were in "evasion" mode and crew effeciency is irrelevant (they arent loading munitions after all). As in a "role playing" mode to me it doesent make sense to be in GQ and silent at the same time.

So yea Ive been "alerted" by the whistle as well

Okay, here's my question: What exactly does the bump in crew efficiency give you? I've never encountered any change to my sub's performance whether I was at 100% or 1% crew efficiency in any compartment besides torpedo reloading.
