So why is it that my crew doesnt get out of there bunks when I press F7 and I am in the galley. I mean in the intro movie they do but in the game they just lay there, it is not a moral issue, there fed special meals all the time. Is this a bug or normal?

Unfortunately, it's normal. It's also fun to see them lounging about like sloths when you have critical damage and water is knee deep in the control room.

You have not invested enough XP in your Motivation spells. Put a few XP and gold coins into your "Get your ass moving" spell and you should see some good results.....

God I hate these special crew powers....WoW meets U-Boat.

Guys in the bunks are gun crews.

im not a fan of this at all.
experience can perfect how a crew does things, morale is insignificant cos theyre fighting for their very survival. they will always do as instructed cos theyre a professionally trained team, every individual relies on each doing their job. to for a single crew member not do that would be 'suicide' for that individual.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
my take on human psychology =
-people panic, freeze under stress cos they want to survive. portrayed as johan in das boot.
-the easiest way to be suicidal in a uboat [besides the captains lugar] is to be more aggressive and dedicated.
------------------------------------------------------------------
perhaps morale should be treated as a random system failure that is scripted to potentially occur in the heat of battle, or prolonged depth charging? a single random crew member fails to react, so you get someone else to cover for him. he doesnt get an iron cross, he gets a bullet or court-marshal instead. if they cant fix this, i'd be happy to see the morale issue removed from SH5.

just my thoughts.

It's the NEW IMMERSIVE FEATURE that the Devs spent years developing which gives you FULLY INTERACTIVE and REALISTIC ACTING Crewmen...
