Anyone else ever feel guilty?

Col Frost · 01-11-08, 05:11 PM

The other day, when I sank the Rodney, I couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt...Seeing such a majestic ship sent to the bottom, and all those sailors drowned; maybe it's because I'm English, not sure...but I couldn't help but feel a bit like I needed a drink or three to numb the pain of it all. Am I getting too immersed?
Anyone else ever feel that?

No, because it will re-spawn when you left the area. :rotfl:

Back from the deep you could say.

Col Frost · 01-11-08, 06:06 PM

I feel better already:p

Does that mean that you can sink the same ship more than once in a campaign?

Sailor Steve · 01-11-08, 06:27 PM

Yes it does. Just the other day someone reported seeing all three of the two Nelson class ships together in one task force.

That sucks, moral-wise lol

Now get off your butt and find that ship & sink it.

I sunk the Hood twice in the same patrol. I encountered it with a task force at 04:00 and sunk it, I ran into in again (alone this time) at 23:00 that same day ~100km away. I sunk it again but of course I didn't get credit the 2nd time. So far I've sunk Hood 3 times in that campaign.

I feel quite bad about the merchies' cew, having some lifeboats fleeing away form the sinking ship would be nice... it would help that tiny bit of humanity some of us have, anyways... I gues they deserve it for playing on the wrong team

Regarding DD's or BB's crews, after I read a couple of U-boats sinking reports, and how they would shoot with sidearms at anyone trying to get out of the sub, yeah, they pretty much deserve my merciless hunting.

You know.. this can cause problems for you when you get home.
"Yeah ! You know the Nelson ? Well three days ago, I sunk that sucker with one shot !!! You should have seen that thing go up like a fireworks display ! Blew the whole thing apart !! It was incredible ! I'm sure she'll make an EXCELLENT artificial reef for all those fish down there and all the tonnage she's worth ! Man ! I deserve a MEDAL for finding and sinking that ship !! Now how about giving me that renown ?"

"Oh really ? Then how come we have these reports and these pictures that were taken just an hour ago of "The Nelson" is sitting in port right now taking on supplies ?"

"Ummmm"

OK, i´m not british guy but seeing in some mods how sailors blow up in the air, well maybe this is interesting but also in some aspect of the game is also coold blooded or cruel. Some lifeboats near sinking ship will be realy helpfull.

I´v newer installed mod with DOLPHINS in my game just because same reason.

IN REAL LIFE: Watch on animals,trees and plants, they are true treasure of the world.

I feel the same way about merchants. Sometimes it just doesn't seem fair. With warships, on the other hand, it's open season. If there's a cruiser in a convoy, I always sink it first, merchants second. But, orders are orders, i guess...

everytime one of my gunners takes out a spitfire, i feel real guilty, cause my gramps was an ace on the brits... he was a spitfire pilot... thats also why i cant play as germans in combat flight simulator 3!

Tottaly understand you Sniper Fox, i also got similar expirience in T72 Balkans on Fire, i cant play this game because this game recreates war in my country 1991-1995. (My old man was fought in this war, i cant play agains my people) So i throw this game in thrash.

When you pull into port, dont lull yourself into a false sense of security, your mines and subnets are just a petty challenge for my crew and I.
