Awesome, Cruel, Insane, Warped, Distasteful, Brutal, Over the top, Sick.....call it what you like.

I don't think you'd find much support for this idea on SS.

Especially from those of us who's fathers sailed and fought on these ships.

Agreed, shooting at sloops is bad enough, but shooting at liferafts, and calling it 'awesome'? That's just wrong.

Make sure you saved the hot chicks on the boat before you sunk her. That would have been a waist...

Yes...they take it serious in here, aye? Shoot any ship to be carrying war supplies, not the hospital ships or civilian ones.

A good use for the AA guns is for blow up the guns of the decks in armed ships.

you have to surface very close in good weather and start firing at will against the deck and the gun, usually it explode and left the ship as a sitting duck for you 88 mm

One of the biggest discussions before SH4 released involved Life boats
and survivors.

Many didn't want them and many wanted to shoot them!
So we kind of let it die.

SH4 came out, it has Life boats and such so now SH3 has them.
Everyone is happy.

Can all the gore and shoot 'em up stuff be added?
Absolutely.

Will I EVER release some of the experiments I have?
Not before Hell freezes over!

I only have what I have to test limits.
As I know someone, somewhere, will try to make a name by offering
such a mod.

Go play GTA or something if your into Blood Lust.

To be honest I would hope that people would not use such a mod Privateer, if ever one came into existence and released. The sad part is somebody somewhere would. Integrity counts for a lot.

@all
Besides, there was only ONE instance in the war where a U-Boat machine gunned the survivors. The Captain had the dubious honour of being the only U-Boat captain executed for war crimes.

This is a war game. Turning your guns on a helpless ship or lifeboats or hospital ships is just basically a war crime and in doing so, you are not playing the game within the standards of which it is based.

You are only hurting yourself at the end of the day. Admitting to your war crimes on subsim... well... ya got stones, or, no sense. one or the other lol

Na, I was thinking more along the lines of U571 (movie) where the survivors were denied rescue at the muzzle of a machine gun.

Actually I play stalker for my bloodlust. Silent Hunter 3 is a more civilized game which I can listen to classical music and enjoys quiet ocean sceneries. :rotfl:

Why waste ammo?

Wow.....

I don't even attack small vessels, much less machine gun people.
I find it hard when I imagine some poor english fisherman out on another miserable Nordsee day, just trying to make a living when a Uboat pops up and blows him away.
I didn't join the U-bootwaffe for THAT...
