Default I have a great idea!

i was reading a book called wolfpack and it said that the c-30s rate of fire was one hell of a lot faster than it is in gwx. why is it so slow?

and a iread about the bachle helicopter, or something and it was used to spot ships far away. so it would be impossible to make.

then i read about radar decoys that act like bold but float in the air. is it possible to make this in the game? it would be great against aircraft at night.

i have been keeping this to myself but...........THE SURCOAF IS POSSIBLE TO MAKE!!!!! i tried to install the playable bismarck mod (plain sh3) but failed epicly. and instead it have a massive gun turret jammed in front of my conning tower, and guess what....... IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!! it fires 2 shells of large calibre but the AA guns dont work.

also i cant load a patrol 2 times in a row because the game randomly crashes.

wouldnt it be good if you could have a new uniform mod for the pacific, like people wear short sleeved shirts and stuff.

and i have another questionj to ask, what is the most amount of servers you have seen online? because all im seeing is the lone vanila server with no ping.

The listed rate of fire of a gun doesn't take into account the unstable footing on a pitching and rolling deck, a bucket brigade of gun crew passing shells up through a conning tower, waiting for the pitch of the waves to allow for an accurate shot, etc. This has been discussed to death. The figure you read about is a theoretical maximum rate of fire under perfect conditions. A WW2 submarine at sea is far from a perfect gun platform.

If you would like to change the rate of fire, SH3 Commander allows you to.

Yep that one brought a smile to my chops as well!

Edit: I've just explained this to my IWO (girlfriend) - she asked who won. I can't remember, can anyone else??
