Well in all honesty, I had the same kind of shock when I first started the game. I ran around the dockyard for a while but luckily found out what to do, so I didn't have to confess here that I'm lost!

Good luck, and godspeed!

Don't be embarrassed everyone who owns the game had that 10 minutes before figuring it out where we all felt like the biggest noob ever. However, It's very simple, there are two men on the left side of the submarine. There is one that will do cool **** to your sub and another that will assign you a mission and what not. The one to assign you a mission has one where you can start a new patrol. That would be how you get into the sub. However, you should start a mission before doing this. As long as you haven't pirated the game it's all very easy at this point. If you pirated the game though, the DRM will butt rape you. I honestly adore it, because I simply paid for the game. Das all you gots to do!

Hi mates!
wow!, thanks!..I mean..it took not more than half hour before I got 5 replies!!

Now, I might go back and try SH5 again..looking for that Officer..or else..it will be SH4 and Brisbane for some R&R..the girls in Brisbane are just lovely!

Safe journey!

by the way, while working on SH4, I found this, earlier classified manual of Torpedoes Mk 14..
I know it's "high-tech" but always interesting to kniow what you are dealing with..just want to share..

Thank's mate!..I am not embarrassed anymore..just a bit agressive against the game designers!

There is a high learning-threshold in these games, and I think they miss a lot in their tutoring..Sometimes, you know you have to do "trial end error"..but now it seemed like a streamline thing at first..very confusing..Better to start with a huge manual and no instructions than small instructions that don't even help you at all!..It is a problem this...If I where running a business like this, I would have made things clear from the beginning..

Let's see how the officer responds..
