GWX Scope Reflection

XLjedi · 08-08-07, 10:09 AM

I finished up my fourth patrol (now 1940) last night...

I think I've found the perfect balance between realism and eye-candy. I have everything turned off except for the event cam, I like to watch the torpedos launch and the ships sinking, and the event cam gives me that without a huge realism % hit. Allows me to play at 97% (and no map updates). Event cam also adds a cool shudder-effect to the explosions that doesn't exist in the ex-cam.

I have noticed two little glitches though, not sure if it's already been reported...

1) In really huge seas, when a wave washes over the bridge I notice I can see the reflection of a raised parascope in the water. Anyone else notice this? I keep looking over my shoulder for a raised scope that isn't there...

2) The nav officer no longer gives the weather reports; which is fine, I don't mind asking the watch officer. But I notice that if I ask the WO for the weather and there's no one at the NO station, the WO will just stare at me and I get the message no officer at station.

Asking the WO about the weather is no bid deal for me, I can look around and see the weather myself, but the extended scope reflection is a little annoying.
