Best part of your content imho. My grandpa was on a german uboat in WWII and I always had a special connection to him before he passed away 2 years ago at the age of 95. Thanks for your content! :) Keep the great work with this nice roleplay-touch up! Greets from Germany :)
23:30 I won't lie, this looks so realistic. The way the water splashes up, the way the entire ship just rocks upon impact and how the second torpedo literally ripped the ship in half. Wow. Brutal.
It’s scary on how realistic games are becoming, I bet by 2030 there will be a game that looks like it where in real life. Real looking buildings, people, cars, etc.
@@axell2027 Why... why is it "scary"? It's still experienced through a keyboard, it's nowhere near real life. Even VR ends with only your visual senses.
I could watch U boat all day, this is one of the greatest submarine games of all time. Watching this and cold waters is definitely my favorite thing Wolfpack does. Absolutely love your content.
Congrats on almost 100k! A tip for the TDC Mod when shooting torpedoes, if you unlock from the target, bring up the torpedoes firing section, and relock onto the target, you can fire torpedoes even without all of the values set.
12:40 You can't open the torpedo panel because you have to unlock the target, open the torpedo panel, select the green light to enable the tdc, then lock the target...in this way the torpedo panel will stay open even without having put the data in the vanilla UI
33:55 : instead of manually dragging the water in the menu, you can also click on the little water icon in the bottom left on the compartment and the crew will empty the compartment.
Nobody actually works the engines, though, there should be a guy on each engine throttle to carry out engine telegraph orders, like in SH5; I'd like to see that, it shouldn't be hard to introduce another crew animation.
Same here. My grandfather lost half a kidney and kept on fighting the russians. He stayed with some others even after his bataillon capitulated to protect women and children from the rape/kill retaliation. Married on of those women later and died 10 years after the war because of that shot. This generation was very different to todays.
Your content is truly amazing, i remember struggling a lot before i found your channel, you are able to make it so interesting for a game that requires so much patience. Love the vids, keep up the good work!
Engineers can get a skill that increases their pre-heat timer. I've certainly enjoyed the schedule UI that allows me to set shifts, so I often have enough well-rested crew. I even keep my radio/hydrophone operator not assigned to work and only manually use him when needed. So its great they added the hydrophone check button. =P I've had to dive under 160 and damaged my pumps in order to avoid the DD screen before (did some test reloads to see how good their detection is. =O Something to note, you'll see the crates floating in the water you can loot... but if you use time compression they will sink rapidly. If you go to normal speed they start to float... slowly. So if you want to loot the crates, don't use time compression. xD That C3 was... extremely tanky. I couldn't see its HP bar due to youtube compression so i was thinking it was bugged.
Night time surface attacks (pre 42-43) are utterly overpowered, expended my entire torpedo stores on a convoy harassed by wolfpacks by only attacking at night, and staying surfaced no matter what, even if detected. The escorts can't detect you with hydro if you are on the surface, and they don't have the radar to find you either, so it's pure mark 1 eyeball.
Well thats pretty realistic. One time a uboat was in the midst of a fleet surfaced and undetected. Then a sailor lit a cig without permission on deck but that helped them because they saw the uboat now
I was playing uboat the other day and found a 32 boat convoy with an aircraft carrier and 11 ASW boats, absolutely rekt the merchants and aircraft carrier, and got away clean
I have fond memories if SH3 and surfacing at pointblank range to a C2 and shooting out its only gun deck. Hopefully we can do something similar in U-Boat down the road. I like the RTB button, though I wish it had an "are you sure" pop-up. I clicked it by accident when I meant to board a neutral freighter and ended my patrol early.
Ocean looks 100% realistic ;) I have been out at sea with sailboat for months doing 36 hour sail stretches' with nothing else then ocean and far away land to look at.
Free tip from one Kaluen to another whenever you crash dive always set your boat on a slow gradual turn, me personally I do this an usually aim myself at the convoy, it's a tad dangerous because I'm usually risking sliding under the destroyers but if you make it under them an into the convoy their ability to attack you becomes limited.
Usual in bed watching on my 32in telly but tonight watched on my 55in telly. I thought this game looked good before but on 55in its amazing. The gameplay, the chat and the graphics, excellent....👍👍👍
yaaay uboat footage! i bought this game because of your videos and i love it... haha its kinda more fun watching you play than playing myself haha but i like the game a lot. Having played the silent hunter and silent service series, i do thinks its an awesome, worthy version of a uboat "sim" ! Hope to see MOAARRR uploads from you. Thanks for the upload
Glad for the continuation of uboat gameplay! Also really cool seing you getting the same amount of views in 4 days that u have gotten on videos years ago, good aging :)
Hey Wolfpack, in case you did not know, I wanted to warn you about the Sinking Physics overhaul mod. It makes Tankers VERY / nearly impossible to sink. The mod authors know this, and they don't know when it will be fixed, if ever. It is still possible to sink a tanker, as I have done it, but only really by getting lucky and having the ship break in half. Though with your creative editing and some console commands, It probably wouldnt be an issue.
Awesome, I need to get back into this. Of all the changes being made I’m astounded we still don’t have a vanilla compass / map tools! Regardless, the game is coming along lovely and I still have hope.
Amazing graphic and gameplay. Thank you so much for sharing. You are starting to succeed in twisting my arm to get this game. However I don't know if I will be able to manage all the tasks required for success. Take care.
U were shoting ap rounds at an unarmord target (C3 Cargo) so shells will just sip right through without doing much dmg guess that's why it survived that long. With HE u would have prob do lot more dmg
@@Ezio2310c Your second comment seemed to imply that he only used AP rounds, not HE, when he used 15 HE and 23 AP, with the crew abandoning ship after he had used 19. So 40% of the shells used where HE.
Really wish you engaged destroyers more purely for the excitement lol, you could've had an amazing stern shot at it after sinking the C3, launch right after she clears and send the tops over her corpse to the destroyer
would be fun to show us what u can do with a Wolfpack one day lol hey I learned that the best way to sink a big ship was to have the torpedo blow up rt under the keel in the middle of the ship and that would crack it in half
The last few 100 subs seem to take forever.... Pity I'm subscribed since a few years already..... wow, that turkey shoot turned out a bit different than expected!
@Christopher Huhmann Sweet, didn't know that, thanks! My GPU died and I still didn't get a new one (exorbitant prices...) but I bought the game. Can't wait to play it :)
32: In real life your boat would be safe from the deck guns on the C3 because the gun crews can not get to the mountings with the deck so tilted over and cannot load the shells. I know this because as a gunner on a WW2 type destroyer I've slid across the deck (standing up) and was grabbed as I slid by (thanks chief).
Getting close to 100k! Thanks everyone! 😊
Congratulations!
Love your work wolf. See you at one million.
Cool😁😁
Keep the work up you make some good videos and nice job to get close to 100k
You deserve it and many many more!
What an exciting episode! Glad the U-boat content is coming back
In the words of Count Dooku, "I've been looking forwards to this"
Same
Ditto
How unsporting: enemies are fighting back. Shouldn´t be a surprise.
Best part of your content imho. My grandpa was on a german uboat in WWII and I always had a special connection to him before he passed away 2 years ago at the age of 95.

Lucky he survived! Cheers
Mine was in concentration camp.
My great grandfather was at Odessa with the romanians
I'd like to hear more about him and his service
One of my relatives was lost at sea off the coast of england in a Uboot. Wreckage hasnt been found yet according to my father
23:30
I won't lie, this looks so realistic. The way the water splashes up, the way the entire ship just rocks upon impact and how the second torpedo literally ripped the ship in half. Wow. Brutal.
Then there's shit where people are fucking stuck to the gun and can fucking shoot back at you when the depression are at impossible fucking angles
@@xboxgorgo18 hhh, no depression restrictions for NPC ships.

If they aren't making an American pacific version of this already, they should! This is a beautiful game. 😁
They could add AC controls for the american subs as another thing to micromanage.
Serving ice cream to the crew when it goes out! 😂

17:36 I have to say extra details such as this makes the game feel more alive and fun to play
29:50 if you hold the ALT key and click on the ship you are targetting you can see its health as a UI element. Another great video
Thank you
There are mods available to lengthen the time that torpedos stay warmed up. I think it's pretty reasonable to use those.
I might use one if it is savegame compatible
His commentary allows for those who can't see well to enjoy as well, upvote so he keeps up the good work.
23:36 imagine standing on the bridge and as the smoke clears you realize the bow isn't connected to the rest of the ship anymore

More UBoat!! Congrats on damn near 100k subs!
"As you can see"
Very funny, Wolf.
hahahahaha
I remember when you just started!!
I loved watching the different subs and different missions!!
GOOD STUFF!! Keep Em COMING..
it has finally returned!!! looking forward to seeing more
Hell ya. Ive been missing your Uboat series quite a bit. Glad to get this suptise today since you had just released a video yesterday. Thank you!
Johann listening to the piston at 2:01 is so legit. Great attention to detail from the developers
Nobody actually works the engines, though, there should be a guy on each engine throttle to carry out engine telegraph orders, like in SH5; I'd like to see that, it shouldn't be hard to introduce another crew animation.
@@garytwinem5275 I guess you havent seen the TV show that the game is based off....
@@Rose.Of.Hizaki I'm guessing you're guessing I haven't seen Das Boot numerous times, and guessing wrong 😉
I never thought u would return to U-boat I love this game
26:13 a fine example of the greatest Generation, My ships going down but Imma make sure my grand kids know I did my part during WW2.
Same here. My grandfather lost half a kidney and kept on fighting the russians. He stayed with some others even after his bataillon capitulated to protect women and children from the rape/kill retaliation.

Finally! Glad to see the return of U-BOAT
Glad the sub content is coming back! Uboat, Cold waters, keep'em coming!
Your content is truly amazing, i remember struggling a lot before i found your channel, you are able to make it so interesting for a game that requires so much patience. Love the vids, keep up the good work!
Woo, a German Cross in Gold. Awarded personally by Grofaz. You're definitely making the headlines!
If you have an engineer with demolishion skill, you can send him over to abandoned ships to skuttle them. Cheaper on ammo.
Really? This game seems awesome.
Thats dope !
Finally UBOAT I am waiting for months
Glad to see Uboat videos again. I had never played any computer games. I bought a computer and this game because I like these videos so much

It's always a great day when Wolf uploads U-Boat!
39:08 lets fire some HE *Doesn't realizes he has AP rounds selected*
Yes! Yes! Finally! I've been waiting for more U-boat contents!
Some Texan gunner on that c3 bent the barrel around the hull and whipped out a mirror.

Wolfpack Tactics the ather U-boat lures out that destroyer while Wolfpack345 sinks the merchant ships noice
26:20
Clearly American Sailors are goats, able to walk perfectly fine even on 89 degree angles.
RIP 🙏 sailor
I love this game!! Thank you for bringing it back!
I cant even remember the 1st U Boat video i watched by you, but im still here. Keep up the good content!
Awesome episode. I was just wondering today when the next Uboot episode would drop. Thanks!
That gunner on the sideways freighter deserves a medal 😅

Finally! Uboat!
22:26 Guy walking casually on that damaged ship. :D
Just started my first campaign yesterday, what a good upload timing!
i remember when you were only at 10k, good to see you didn't give up!
Wish I could have my water effects up that high.
Loving it again great video so glad your back to your best. Thanks wolfpack. Can't wait for more
Let’s go I was just watching your other uboat vids this morning
Amazing graphic and gameplay. Thank you so much for sharing. You are starting to succeed in twisting my arm to get this game. However I don't know if I will be able to manage all the tasks required for success. Take care.
best line, "could probably stop..." shoots two more times...
about effin time we got some uboat content that's not cold waters
26:19 That man is GETTING his pay.
Great new features! Keep on doing the good work.
Nice to see a little uboat for a change. I love cold waters but uboat is refreshing.
he was lobbin those shells like a howitzer at your sub is my guess lol. those sneaky buggers!
AP = Armor Piercing HE = High Explosive The whole time you were firing AP at a cargo ship.
Just had a look and your assessment is incorrect. At 29:00 I am firing HE at the cargo ship.
@@Wolfpack345 that were some HE shots but mostly AP
Play more of this, Wolfpack! Really enjoyed this video
YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH UBOAT FINALLY BACK
sinking ships with the AA guns is one of my favorite things to do in this game.
FINALLY MORE UBOAT

Woo Hoo!! So glad UBoat is back!!
Are some of these merchant ships not double-hulled? That could explain why those C3 Cargoes took an age to sink. A great episode, Wolfpack!
Good to see you back again, Wolf!
Really wish you engaged destroyers more purely for the excitement lol, you could've had an amazing stern shot at it after sinking the C3, launch right after she clears and send the tops over her corpse to the destroyer

Love it and congrats on the verge 100k subscribers dude!
Just when we thought he’d given up on uboat!
I love watching Uboat videos
It would be so useful if you could add a task to someone to preheat torps as soon as one gets cold so you don't have to do it over and over again.
@Christopher Huhmann Sweet, didn't know that, thanks! My GPU died and I still didn't get a new one (exorbitant prices...) but I bought the game. Can't wait to play it :)
things have come a long way from the old silent service game.
What in game realism settings do you use? Great series btw, got me into the game. kinda wanna buy it now
32: In real life your boat would be safe from the deck guns on the C3 because the gun crews can not get to the mountings with the deck so tilted over and cannot load the shells.

Idea for the 100k vid: destroy a destroyer using the deck gun in silent hunter 3
Your older videos are a bit more cinematic than today one, keep your good old style :)
Cool to see UBoat again but wait, can cold water be played as a surface ship?
with DotMod, yes apparently
This was the funniest u boat vid ever
YES. Back to German u boats. Love it
Good old German fleet submarine.
Solid boats.
Yes! Finally more uboat.
