Seth8530 · 03-24-07, 08:24 PM

I am sick and tired of my watch crew all 3 shifts dieng at once for no apparent reason. they are not at battle stations or anything anyone know of any fixes

I think fatigue is playin a part
But I had all my watch die too on my first patrol, I hated replacing them for the 2nd

Im on my way back to Midway after another successful patrol (my 2nd), and so far so good.
It could be planes strafing your boat as well.

I had this all the way home from my second patrol in the game... I took a shelling from a merhcant and a good number of my wtach crew would die and my flak gun would be damaged. And there would be no planes about.

Also on a simular note, when ever I'd take damage, notably from a bomb, and even if it did no real major damage the whole rest of the patrol my flak gun would periodicly break down even though its not being used....

Seth...watch your CO2 levels. I had a similar problem. You need to surface the ship before CO2 poisoning kills the crew.

I have not had a single crewman die for no apparent reason. Very strange thing you have there:hmm:

IIRC, the CO2 meter doesn't work at the moment. At least I've never seen it change despite being submerged for very long periods.

Mine definitely works. But the battery is by far the limiting factor. Unless you were sitting on the bottom for days it couldn't be CO2 - there be a lot of air in these American boats.

This is EXACTLY what happend to me. No planes spotted or anything, I'd randomly get a crewmember down, and the flak gun damaged message.

Same thing here, but I'd also get a radar damaged message. Lost all my deck crews in two patrols so far.
