For a submariner anything on the surface is a target and should be engaged until identified as freindly or neutral.

Hands up everyone with a Kaleuns cap who calls their family or housemates "the crew" and has a red light in the room with the computer?

I'm there!

My neighbour has a red light at her window, does that mean she shares the same interests in submarine warfare as I do ? :hmm:

No that just means she is a hooker.

Can't speak for sub games, but I'm still addicted to planetside and suffering withdrawl symptoms ( See this post and random mention of planetside for evidence). Every so often I swear to god I hear the little count down timer the game uses for the transport, or the little sounds for implants etc.

H.E.L.P M.E.

Actually, I've never felt the least bit claustrophobic in any sub or ship I've been in. Dunno why, either, as I can get more than a touch so in very closed spaces on land. Maybe something about the motion of the boat on the water or something? ?Or just that metal seems less confining to me than wood and concrete? No idea. No claustrophobia on subs, though.

Used to play PS quite a bit, myself. Before it started sucking, anyway. Was on Emerald, then Konried (when they merged) as TR.

It's ONE of the reasons I think an MMO-subsim would be fun. An MMO can still be compelling without the level "grinding" of tradditional MMORPGs that everyone thinks of when the topic comes up (*cough*WoW).
