Oh yeah. As I said, I thought the hardest thing to adjust to when I bumped up to realistic would be the manual aiming. But you're right, with contacts off it totally changes the game. For the better, I've come to believe. It forces you to be more patient. You can't just hit the TC and make course adjustments as you go to follow the contact via the map. You actually have to go in there and look at the hydrophones every so often, which is really immersive.


And @ Rockin Robbins, thanks. Seem to be a helpful dude. Were this the Steam Forum, I'd +rep you.

P.S. @ Bothersome, I'm gonna try what you said; and if it works, I may ask you to marry me.

Have you tried the new radar mod. It's a must for contacts off.
