Until Ubi produces a sub game that isn't deep fried tampons, they have no "good name" for me to sully.

Out of curiosity, what don't you like about SH4? I'll grant that SH5 was way too dumbed down, but just about the only thing about Wolves of the Pacific that I feel mods haven't been able to fix are the non-working magnetic detonators.

You won't have to worry about Ubi making another game though - I believe the lead guys behind SH3-SH5 left the company after this last debacle. Maybe someone else will pick up the slack ... and give us wolfpacks while they're at it.

Wow...not complaining about these results since I am an AFB. NEVER would happen in real life though. Thought a 500 fix patch would take care of some of these obviously outlandish results.

Matrix come on! Maybe 1 more little fix to take care of this BORKED result?

And if you think history is broken, you haven't see BROKEN until you've played SH(it)4.

Ah hell Terminus, them's fightin' words, ya hear? Until someone does a modern-day Silent Service, I'll not have you sully the good name of the Trigger Maru.

Vanilla SH4 was "broken" (on my first patrol, I sank an Agano class CL - in Dec 1941 [8|]), but with mods like Trigger Maru it is an excellent game!

I still remember the very first Silent Hunter - during one war career I singlehandedly sank four Yamatos, a dozen carriers and over 120 destroyers... [:D]

Hi all,

That is odd for sub skipper to risk the sub and the crews for this actions and unbelievable that didnt get spotted and taken out. With your escort screens, should have gotten that sub. Now i am wondering should i keep playing, i just started Grand Campaign vs. Allies AIs and dont want to play if this get alittle crazy like this one.

For some reasons, it doesnt seem realistic in that combat reports you have there.

Fished! [:D]

[Knavey]

Awwww shucks...[:D] Maybe this game isn't so BORKED after all. Real life code seems a bit lacking though. No way this could happen in WitP-AE!

Can't believe Rasher did so well on that cruise. Combine that days tally with her exploits a week or so before, her captain was NOT complaining about the dud rates.

Pulled the data from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Rasher_(SS-269) and also http://www.combinedfleet.com/Noshiro_t.htm

No...not quitting, and yes, still playing. Not as much posting of late, but sure enjoy seeing the old timers posting in the thread.

Great game!

Classic. i read the post before i read the name of the post-er. Welcome back Knavey.

And RisingSun - if your post was serious, you can relax. No, this did NOT happen in game (only in RL!). So you CAN keep playing!!

Yes i was serious playing this huge campaign, since i have alot of free time for awhile. Been writing down alot of notes and keeping tracks of things. After they patches the game numerous times, though i give this one another shot and see how i play out on Japaneses.

You are correct. This is wrong. There is no way all those Allied Torpedoes would have exploded

The torpedo problem was fixed by 1944. By 1944 US subs were using Torpex which had 50% higher yield to the warhead than previous torpedoes.

If this was the combat report than there are bound to be over claims.
