Getting married and real life work schedule as kind of limited game time, especially for such an intense game like DW. I remember SC reached a plateu in it's mod features, with the SCX graphics, Sub Changer, and the enhanced realism from SCX II. It was just so polished. I'm wondering if DW will reach that same polished state...

Very soon will reached the same level as SCX.
We already have actually analogue SCX for DW, and even moreover...

At present SHIII takes most of my gaming time, but in between I fire up DW for a quick mission here and there. I still play SC as well, these are games that won't leave my HD anytime soon, if ever. I come to the forums almost every day.

Hey, I'm relatively new to DW. Bought it about three months ago and installed the LWAMI mod just the other day (which seems to make things look subtly better, though I have yet to learn all the ways it augments gameplay). I play DW a couple of times a week, and it's the only thing I play on my PC these days. I just bought a mic too, and issuing voice commands to my virtual crews is like the nearest thing to heaven for me. I also have SHIV, but haven't played it in months, due to irritation at UBI's epic fail with this title.

I love DW and am sad to see that I seemed to have picked it up long after the DW community's more vibrant, earlier times.

I enjoy the nuke boats, but I find the game is too scripted, It would be an awesome game if the patrols were more dynamic in a fictitious war scenario. I just get bored with inserting seals and things like that. Make a game like SH4 but bring it up do date.

LOL! Are you saying you've gotten married TG? If so, congrats!

If you need to flex your multiplayer muscles, I'd be happy to help out...I still need to get you back for that deep diving Sierra II tactic you used on me!

I haven't played for quite some time, but I've recently become hooked on modern subs again after a period of WWII/Aviation interest so I definately plan on getting back in the game! The only thing currently foiling me is a Vista problem involving speech recognition, which starts whether I want it to or not and screws up performance.

You must have a pretty good memory - I don't recall that tactic. PM me and refresh my memory if you would!

I am having the same issue... I guess I have to configure SR to get it to shut up

Default DW

I still play a mission every now and then. This game will stay on my HD for now.
I agree that a more dynamic campaign would be a plus.
Obviously (and fortunately I would say) no real fleet boat mod is available otherwise we would all sit in the middle of a radioactive desert.
The modding of DW has unfortunately more or less stopped, maybe due to the limitations of the game proper or due to lack of interest by the community.
Thanks ot all who have devoted time and efforts to make the gameplay better.

Well, I just got it, driving the 688i only because I am familiar with how it worked in the previous two titles, carefully evaluating the jobs the auto-sonar and auto-TMA guys do (so far not too hot). Basically I got bored with the SH series (for the moment) and wanted something with more tactical "meat"...
