"What's long, hard and full of se(a)men ? You guessed it, this let's play of Silent Hunter 3." Probably one of the best and funniest intros I have ever heard on UA-cam.

C'mon, I'm not the only one re--watching these am I? Best Earliest UA-camr nobody else knew about apparently. I might as well make a blanket comment here and thank you for all Silent Hunter content I've watched 10 times over now. Thanks Effing.
Glad to be of service! Be sure to play through the tutorials, especially the torpedo one. My game is also modded with a package called GWX 3.0 which adds a lot of details and features to the game. I recommend downloading that, but only after you've gotten somewhat comfortable with the stock game. Happy sinkings!
1939 torpedoes were indeed unreliable....but take solace in the fact that on the other hand, allies were not all that greatly prepared to hunt you yet.
Was it as bad as the trailers made it out to be? Cause the trailers made the subs out to be sharks. So much so that I thought they were originally going to make a "Megashark vs. WWII Convoy" movie for Syfy but decided to go with a normal WWII movie.
@@patrickstivers7387 It's pretty good. The trailer really doesn't do it justice because the few scenes they cherrypicked are entirely different when viewed in the proper context.
I'm like: "Hey, there's a little patrol boat. Oh, another ship. Sweet! Well, a third one... okok, four ships... goddammit five f*cking ships... come on..."
At that point, Canada was it's own Dominion. We still didn't our own constitution (That wouldn't happen until the Canada Act of 1982) but we had the ability to make our own laws, and because of our status as the senior dominion as well as Canada's service in the First World War, we had a lot of independence at that point, including choosing if we were going to war against Germany (which we did).
The difference between the torpedoes is not just a bubble trail.... The gas torpedoes have a range of 12.5 km in slow speed and 5km in fast speed, but for fast speed the hit is 99.9% sure when the target ship is moving fast (15-21 kts). The second torpedoes are electric and they aren't fast and their range is only 5km. Their speed is slow and they're most likely to miss a target... Fucking bubbles....
Hey, i have the 3.0 mod version to but whenn i leave port the same as yours and just before i passed rotterdam my game starts lagging. Is it the mod? Or could it be my pc? Your movies are great and so much fun :D keep it up!!
I'm using the GWX Supermod set which adds several features, including additional cities. If you Google "GWX 3.0" the first result will get you to the mod's main page.
Especially before the Norwegian campaign, I preferred the "self exposing" torpedoes to the "toy torpedoes" that likely will not detonate at all. Indeed, if those toy torpedoes had really worked, the British would have likely lost the battleship HMS Warspite during Norwegian campaign. Warspite suffered four direct hits...no damage because torpedo warheads did not detonate. For this historic fact reason, I often used the bubble trail leaving torpedoes...
What's the lag like? Does it just suddenly lag for a few moments and then continue on like normal, or is it ongoing? If it's ongoing (which I'm guessing it is), it can be because the game is loading a port or a convoy. It tends to slow down noticeably if there are lots of ships or other objects that it has to load. If the lag goes away as you go further out to sea, that's probably the culprit. Otherwise, I'm not sure.
yes thats it, when i leave willemshaven than it lags because of all the ships and planes, but i love this mod except that it is pretty hard to hit anything, and i can't always use the deckgun :( but thx!
bugger....Mr Effing Controller, you've taken my time, i've watched this series and i take my hat off to you; dearly as we must foremost excel in the field of duty, to serve our sworn oath into the seldom depths. Anyhoo... i think one thing which you should have REALLY tried was to just got hell-for-leather in using the 'salvo' method. Spread those torps and take out the stragglers. -Subscribed-
ago you start your patrol have the briefing, to give your mission... but in my simple have the grid to i patrol! for what? my sh3 have the grey wolves expansion... pls help me
You may have better luck downloading a torrent of it if the official links aren't working. Apart from that, I'm afraid I don't have any recommendations. The standard game is perfectly fine if you can't find a way of getting GWX, but GWX really, really improves it. I hope you can find a workaround.
Ok i need help badly, i'm playin silent hell 3 (also i'd like to know what that game u r playing, sorry i couldnt catch the name :$) anyways the version im playin is russian and it sux! :S how can i ix that?
back when steam had standards now any game can get on that site even ones with viruses ( heroes and generals) their so called anti cheat software which by the way does absolutely nothing to negate hackers and cheating registered as a virus capable of letting hackers create back door to access files warthunder installer is also a virus
Its a mixed bag. Silent hunter 4 has better graphics and the AI is a bit better. There are some damn good mods for it as well. But there are more bugs than a cheap motel. Silent hunter 3 is a much more reliable engine.
Your actually not butchering Wilhelmshaven (speak v like f, then it's perfect) or Kiel (was perfect). U allways appreciate good pronounciation on German words.
i played some months back Silent Hunter 4 with american & german subs, but SH3 looks even better i might try it and thanks for the useful commentary and gameplay.

Coming back 9 years later to watch one of my favorite video series.
Man, 10 years for the Let's Play which first got me in to SH III. Hope you are doing well
That opening joke just earned you a sub
Edit: I just laughed at my own double usage of the word "sub"
2 years later I laugh at your double usage of the word "sub"

I always come back to this lets play, I remember watching it when I was 11, so fucking comfy man
the best opening to a video ive ever heard
Here to watch again after 4 or 5 years. Lovely series
Im watching for the first time!

Hard to believe its the 3rd time I'm watching this entire series. You should revisit SHIII!
This being the first video of yours that I have ever watched, that was the best intro I have ever heard.
This just popped up on my home page after 11 years :U
Just watched the Greyhound movie. Felt like revisiting this old series again.

Are those.... the voices from "Das Boot"??? Awesome!!! This game sounds great!!
+pikewerfer Look for DBSM_for_SH3 mod
2018???
Downloading this game right now on steam, use to play the original game back in the day.. You just earned a subscriber with the intro 😆
Patrol 1 was a prewar patrol and I didn't make a recording of it. The videos for patrols 2-4 were a part of a text LP I did on the VoltronArmy forums.
You got quite the welcoming party for your passage through the Channel.
Also; 25:53 "Bottoming out". Oh, the context...!
I'm like: "Hey, there's a little patrol boat. Oh, another ship. Sweet! Well, a third one... okok, four ships... goddammit five f*cking ships... come on..."
lol story of my life lol
our house! in the middle of the street!
Long silent hunter videos, informative, funny, subbed!

@TheSquirrel390 Don't worry, it's all downhill from here.
Yep and thanks for the name of the music !

Yep! If you buy it off of Steam it's fully compatible with Windows 7.

THIS WILL NOT GO UNPUNISHED.
Where did you get the wolf add on you were talking about at the beginning of the video?
You got a sense of humor... I like it.

You have a lot of cities on the map. How? I have only10-11?

Totalmadness Gamingstuffs At this point, I think I was using GWX 3.0 and SH3 Commander, and possibly h.sie's hardcoded fixes.
No problem.

@InfluxNUFC Why do I always have to be the butt of your jokes? And yes, it took me four days to come up with that.
