Default Just to introduce myself.

Hello everyone,

I am a newbie to the submarine community. A little bit of my background perhaps, would help to character myself and see if I would be appointed to a sailor role.

Since 1995, I was in the USNF, serving the EA team. I have flew various airplanes in USNF since then. In Jan 1999, I joined the Falcon 4.0 and flew the F-16 for a little less than 4 years before I retired from the F-16 squadron. Since then I had taken up roles in Jane's Fleet Command and later Sub Command. In the last 3 years, I have been serving the infrantry like BF-1942, BF-2 and lately SWAT 4.

I read many review about SH-III and somehow, feel the needs to do something less dynamic. All I know about naval warfare is it takes time to deploy and get into position. Unlike in aerial combat, we can get on stations in a few seconds and taking out targets is just a matter of 4 to 5 seconds. But in naval warefare, I suppose it takes lots of attentions and patience.

Pleas tell me what SH-III is like. And I would like to know if it worths the money to get the simulation. How hard-core it is? One more thing, I fancy submarine warfare is because I have watched too many times "Hunt for the RED October", "Crimsom Tide" and "K-19". That sort of search and destroy is fun. But would it take ages to kill a sub? All I am talking about is multiplayer mode, does SH-III offer Multiplayer Mode? And are they head-to-head online?

I read IGN reviews that the graphics is good and presentation is unique. You have the entire view of the crew rather than just switching between panels. Is that true and how it works in multiplayer mode?
