Welcome to the glorious world of GWX! Once you started playing, you will NEVER go back - you have been warned.

You aren't addicted or anything are you?

You can quit anytime you like right?

<At least that's what I keep asking myself.>

Ohh that's something that always annoyed me a bit, sure there is the flottila info in the ingame help screen and the manual, but it's not by chance possible to add the location of the base into the "change flottila" screen?

The trouble is bases change during the war
The screen would have the wrong bases on as war progressed
- thats if its possible to change the screen
Not looked

Might be possible with Cmdr.

Could probably add updated info via the date folders.

Well, if I am addicted, there is no one to blame other than you Lehmann and the rest of your team. :rotfl:

I tried to quit a month ago, lasted about 3 days. The last night I had some sort of breakdown and my wife was pretty disturbed when I woke her up yelling something about wasserbomben and Der Kanal. She's a smart lady and immediately woke me up and sat me down in front of the computer, loaded GWX for me, and inserted an IV line filled with coffee. Isn't she great? Although she's getting a bit testy since I haven't shaved in 3 weeks and am I'm starting to smell a bit, but she know dedication to duty when she sees it

Oh man....and I'm still getting used to release 1.03...

Curious...curious... :hmm:

You guys did a great job. Without GWX I would have given up on SHIII, but now its replay value had doubled or tripled!

PapaG39 · 10-05-07, 01:56 AM

And for all of you old timers....I can quit this game anytime I want...
aaaauuuuu....I just don't want to quit right now.

I had to do a quick save & leave for work. Now I'm back and still sitting quiet like a mouse on the bottom in 21m of water with an Armed Trawler about 2000m away heading directly for my position. I don't know if he just turned toward me because that was his normal search pattern turn or if he is coming to blow me into tiny little pieces...
Anyway, I can't quit now I have to wait & see how this turns out..

I checked commander & it didn't say anything about Bergen or the 11th flotilla.
The GWX manual says that a Norway base didn't start until 1943 & I'm in August 1940.

The GWX effect!

andylegate · 10-05-07, 06:35 AM

The above pics are..........disturbing..........

Actually, I'll be so involved with SH3 that I'll neglect things in RL!

But after awhile, I'll actually go several days without touching it, as I'll get busy doing something else or actually playing something new, and the time just runs out.

Then I'll finally go back and load up SH3, and one of the first things that comes to mind is: why am I bothering with all that other stuff?

And then the cycle begins anew!

I'll probably switch back to grey icons someday, just not today.
