Default SHV's ole one eye may be a stinker?

Intresting to read since i only get a black screen on the SHV site.

By the looks of it his rapsheet should better be edited to read: ''He is also the man most likely to stab you in the back, he's ready to take on all responsibilities.''

If i buy SHV i'll certainly be looking to offload this guy from my boat

Isn't the eyepatch just a measure to prevent nightblindness? Simmilar to red light vs white light?

Hmm sorry I should read b4 I post. RL I don't think they would alow a 1 eyed sailor on a sub.. he needs to be able to estimate range

Somebody on the dev team watched Valkyrie and said "Hey, I've got an idea!"

The thing is, I don't think you can, I'm starting to think you're stuck with these guys, given the effort someone at Ubi has put into pitching their backgrounds and character development.

One can always mod them out. Or at least, unpatch him.

no kidding
Joke aside, I'm sure you don't know how probably right you are on that one... !!!
Look for the other crew members background stories and their das boot similarities...

Anyway, as soon as I can fiddle with 3d models, it's on my top list to get rid of that eye patch! It's so cartoony and kiddy Do our captain 3d model have a parrot on his shoulder?!?

Anyway, that Ol' One-eyed-Jack crewman really looks like an über Nazi bad-ass cliché from an Indiana Jones movie lol! Except Indie movies were never meant to be taken seriously...

If someone has already mentioned it I'm sorry.

But isn't it ironic as hell that all of us fought and screamed for an
"eye-patch" for SH4.
Now we literally have one and we're all fighting and screaming about it.
I think it was put there as an inside joke between all Subsimers and the developing team.

I think it's cool as hell in that regards, funny to say the least.
