Mysterious Smoke

Not quite sure what this is....it happen every time I load any save mid-patrol.

Anyone have anything similar.

Yep, it's from Deep Purple - it's called "Smoke on the Water".

Sorry, this will only be funny to the old farts among us (the funny part is debatable too).

You are being followed by a uboat with the snorkel up. That is the diesel exhaust. It should go away whey you reload the game. Strange game glitch. I have experienced this before. Not sure what causes it.

Hey, watch it, I resemble that remark:rotfl:

More people will know it then you think....it was included on Guitar Hero....

Kinda ironic being that "smoke on the water" was written while the band watched a Japanese hotel burn.

Edit: If that was a sub....kinda scary, I'm guessing snorkel is uboat only.....and why didn't I hear him if he's running on diesel. I'm sure your right, not questioning you at all. I guess what I'm trying to say is....was there a submarine following me and when I reloaded it glitched...or did I just see the smoke and there never was Uboat.

Also, Do any of the planes drop homing torpedos....??

It's just Reece, after being hit by a shell.

I've had that happen before, also loading mid-patrol. Even mentioned it in a 'patrol log' email I sent to a buddy.

Didn't know it was a bug, actually, thought it was where I'd sank a ship and it was just lingering.

*jams to Deep Purple!*

Good to know I'm not the only one who has seen it.
