New to SubSim - Introduction

Jackson Junglist · 09-24-13, 09:48 PM

I recently was invited by UbiSoft to play the Silent Hunter Online beta. While playing, I decided that I wanted to play a real (not free to play) submarine simulator, so I decided to purchase Silent Hunter 4. I am more interested in commanding American subs than German subs anyways. As a child, my father gave me an old submarine simulator called Gato, and I remember liking it a lot, but I do recall it being relatively basic. So since I got Silent Hunter 4, I have been searching for tips on the Internet, and about half of my searches brought me to subsim.com. I was looking into getting this TriggerMaru mod, and SubSim requires me to join in order to download. So, here I am. I'm sure I will be using this forum because I've been having a difficult time trying to figure out this game. I only hit with about 15% of my torpedoes, and I still can't figure out why.

Thank you everybody for the warm welcomes. I have a ton of questions, but I'll try to figure some out on my own before I start cluttering up these forums.

Check out the SH4 forums. You'll find plenty of help there.

In fact, check out all the forums. Except one. If you value your soul, stay away from General Topics!.
