Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter is an interactive war thriller which seamlessly blends tactical WW2 anti-submarine warfare simulation with a gripping storyline, presented through Hollywoodesque, interactive cutscenes. Take command of a meticulously reconstructed Fletcher-class destroyer and lead your crew against U-Boats in the Battle of the Atlantic! - Ігри
I like it. The sub AI needs work though. Oof. No U-boat commander would stay shallow while escorts made runs over them.
You have any thoughts on having a bit of narrative fun switching up between destroyer and U-boat
That's actually a pretty good idea
I like the idea too!👍🏻 It would make a very interesting narrative!!
I agree
make it a love story between a destroyer and a uboat, like Romeo and Juliet but boats
@@rowmagnvs what
Hey Wolfpack! UBOAT is officially releasing on the 15th with a massive update, I’d love to see some gameplay on that
There will be Uboat content for sure
@@Wolfpack345 great! Really excited for that.
cant wait :D
Bit sad I won't have my expert crew since it is not save compatible, but I can play from 39 so by 43 they will be again experts.
did you get early access to the patch? they said they gave streamers early access on the 12 oct, to play it early. I thought you were one of them!
seems like multicrew would be badass. if you had a competent crew I think the communication and coordination would be fun and interesting
Depends on the type of entertainment you are after? You a sailor long? How do you find the source mech for the front alignment of the SKL? Did you adjust for the serting or just the fraction of drop? I would assume the later but it is a scary thought! Especially considering all the latest obstructions of fragmented hood lever control techniques. Not sure why they bother!
It's so amazing that there's a game of this now. My grandad ran depth charges and hedgehogs on Flowers through the war. I can't help but wonder what he would think seeing this. I was an anti-submarine plotter so I'm partial as well haha. I love both sides of ASW but of course I'm biased haha. thanks for sharing, always love your stuff.
I have so many questions to ask!
@@Field_Marshal_Emu shoot! haha
Woooo! Here for all the corvettes. Wonderful little ship, salty crews - those big battleships plough through the seas but the Flowers rode them, every peak and trough, rolling on wet grass.
you take this game QUITE seriously, I dig it. you always add a nice roleplay aspect to the game but you really nerd out on this one, great content as usual. Thank you
'
When he takes the persona of the in-game personnel it is always the best.
Why are you so openly flirting? OMG
Hahaha I *adore* the Silent Hunter music at the start, all I can hear in my head is the SH III XO's voice "WE'RE TAKING DAMAGE SIR!"
30:40 I noticed that the pattern depth was set for deep, when it needed to be no more than medium. 😞
We’ve seen him hunt ships in a UBoat, We’ve seen him command terrifying ships such as the USS Iowa, and USS Arleigh Burke. We’ve even seen him fly aircraft.
Now? He’s become the submarine hunter.
The way the music changes after you lost contact with the sub really add to the suspense whether or not you sunk it or its still running. Great content, friend!
it seems a bit annoying that the collision alert CBDR callouts actually come when the bearing isn´t constant.. it is literally "constant bearing, decreasing range"
It's weird after all these submarine games where they go down in a single torpedo hit and where the player seems to get messed up pretty bad by depth changes, and it this game it seems they just suck up explosions right next to them, even when you get oil and debris
Makes me miss destroyer command, I loved that game.
Almost didn't make me scream "Shallow! Shallow!!!" at 29:50
The only thing I dislike about Destroyer is that it is, once again, the US perspective.
They absolutely should have went for a British or Canadian perspective here. They sure deserve the recognition for the sacrifices they made during the battle of the Atlantic and we have seen the US perspective en masse now, everywhere, for decades.
Because America is going to be the largest audience
As a destroyer driver (Uss Stout ddg 55) I can say that driving a destroyer was fun but intense even though we had no enemies to look out for unless we were doing exercises.
You no destroyer driver, you a bad fisherman at best!
The devs of this game really need to consider adding hedgehogs to the arsenal. Would make for a nice 1-2 punch in many of your attacks.
That would mean using something British, this is American, and that would be seen as terrible. LOL, clearly, like many of our own British folk today, you have no idea about the true nature of these two countries histories. What I read from so many British today, is quite unbelievable. But is explainable, it's also, today, one of this country's biggest problems. Today, none of these younger Brits know or understand our real history at all, yet they'll all swear they do, only they really don't, you can ask anyone over the age of 52, to tell you all about WW2, and it will be a completely different account to all those under the age of 52.
It's because, in 1986, the British government under US pressure decided to change the British education system. It saw the very good, O'Level, and CSE standard, just done away with, and replaced with this excuse of an education, they call GCSE's. We saw our own government change what we were once taught, and they employed a model of the USA's education system, (that only consists of their propaganda version of world history, and their propaganda outright lying accounts of WW2).
They were also pressured to rubbish much of our own real history. And it was done with a purpose to dumb down our own population. They couldn't have any of us being proud of our history, (as we'd lost our Empire in WW2), we became nothing but a vassal/puppet state of the USA after WW2, and we've remained a puppet state ever since WW2. They couldn't have well-educated British all over the world calling the USA out on every lie we were then going to see from them. So, they've all been taught the lies, and the US propaganda of world history, and only the "Hollywood myth of WW2", and not any of the real facts, or even any understanding of a British viewpoint of WW2 at all.
The reality of WW2 was, that the American people themselves wanted to support Germany against the British, millions of them protested against the British. Many British troops had heard about the American's protesting against the British over the radio, (they weren't supposed to be able to listen to). And from that day on, they all became known as the "cowardly Yankers" (obviously meaning W****rs). When they eventually got here, (We can watch the footage of the first Americans landings, in the UK, In the online British war archives) and you can hear some of them shouting out, calling them cowardly Yankers. And It's not hard to see why.
All the facts also show us this reality, the USA waited, and they waited, and they waited, for the Germans to defeat Britain. They even put up with 1000s of tons of their own shipping (in the Atlantic gap), being sunk by German U Boats, killing thousands of American Merchant Seamen, yet still, Roosevelt refused to declare War on Germany! And let's not forget? Hitler had made his intention of global dominance known in 1936, meaning, it was always going to be a world war. The USA tried to suggest it was "just another European War", but were soon forced to change their minds, as soon as, and only because, they got attacked at Pearl Harbor.
Otherwise, the USA were doing nothing, and they'd refused to do anything. The Americans only arrived, after being forced to fight, (with the attack on Pearl Harbour), and to help with the final assault in Europe. More truth is, after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the British declared war on Japan without a second thought, and they then fought Japan long before the USA did, (In the Battle of Hong Kong). But the USA, once again, still refused to declare war on Germany (who were Japan's ally).
And that actually speaks volumes about the USA. It really says it all, they all really believed, and they really thought the British would be crushed by Nazi Germany, so they waited, and they waited, for Germany to defeat Britain. Roosevelt, even refused Britain the use of 50 old, half sinking, rotting, wooden, WW1 destroyers that were just left rotting away in US waters, as Roosevelt had an election coming up, (and he knew it would not be welcomed by the American people). What does that actually show us?
We needed them to patch up, to use for the protection of our convoys, convoys that were carrying the kids, (our parents and grandparents), from the Island before the Blitz! Roosevelt only agreed to allow Britain the use of those rotting destroyers, after the UK agreed to give up all of her military bases across the world, and lease them all to the USA for 100 years. Some ally hey? And just look what they've done with those military bases since?
By the end of 1941, Britain had survived Dunkirk.
Britain had survived the blitz.
Britain had beaten Germany in the Battle of Britain, (Inflicting Hitler's first defeat, and his first airborne defeat).
Britain and the Aussies had held Tobruk, and forced Rommel all the way back to El Agheila, where he came from. (Inflicting Hitler's second defeat, his first land defeat).
Britain (with tremendous support from Canada), had overcome the German U-Boats in the North Atlantic, and was receiving most of her needed cargo again, (Inflicting Hitler's third defeat, and first Naval defeat). While over on the other front, (a front only opened by Hitler, because he could not defeat the British), the Soviets, (at a massive cost of over 10-20 million men), had turned Germany around (in the battle of Moscow), and were now forcing them back to Berlin and their demise.
Britain had also been successfully destroying many German resources, their weapons factories, their submarine infrastructures, their chemical plants, right across Europe, in country after country, and most importantly, we'd been destroying all the oil refineries they were going to need if they were going to achieve their ambitions.
We were also fighting in Greece, in Egypt, in Burma, in Singapore, (our biggest ever military defeat), and many other places around the world. Sure, we had some hard times. Sure, we lost a few battles. But we won far more! We were never beaten, or even close to being beaten. The closest Britain came to defeat in WW2, was right at the start, in Dunkirk. Surely, the whole world knows this?
That's also the point of WW2, where every historian agrees, and says, Germany could no longer win the War. That was all before the end of 1941. When did the American arrive? Well? Exactly. The rubbish we read from the Americans about WW2, is nothing but propaganda they've all been spoon-fed from birth, (as if, a real part of their history). We endlessly read the Americans claiming the USA somehow saved the UK in WW2? How many times have we all read that? Yet the truth, the reality, and all the known facts of WW2, show us, that actually, the exact opposite is the reality, as all the real known facts of WW2 show us so clearly, (facts, anyone can merely go look up for themselves), only you need to look a little deeper, rather than just reading the outlines of WW2 you're given today, but all the facts are all still there to study and to learn.
So where these Americans get this notion from, that the USA saved Britain?, or in fact, saved anyone else? Nobody knows? Saved Britain from what exactly? When, and where, did the USA save Britain? Where was Britain losing the war, the USA saved us from? We were winning the war!
To understand WW2? You only need to imagine, if Britain had been beaten at any point in the war, or even if Britain did what the USA did, and merely decided to sit out of what was always a world war? We could have done that too, as Hitler never wanted a war against Britain.
So, if Britain had been beaten at any time in WW2, or had simply done the same as the USA?, then Hitler wouldn't have needed to open up the second front, and he would've attacked the Soviets in 1940, with full strength both in the air, and on the ground. And Germany would have absolutely annihilated the USSR, as in 1940, the USSR was not in any way at all, prepared to even defend themselves. The Soviet Red Army were sharing one riffle between 10 troops in places.
That would have left Germany in control of all Europe, all the Soviet Union, plus much of the rest of the world! And that would have seen the USA, completely, and utterly annihilated, is the reality, the real truth. And that truth is nothing like you'll hear today!
Churchill said to the world, ''Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few'' What do the American people think he was talking about? Just how is this possible, in 2022, to read so many that have no idea about their own country's real history?
Roosevelt, actually, set about asking Hitler for some kind of deal/arrangement, to avoid getting involved in the war! (Though we see that also changed and lied about today). But we all know that Hitler even ridiculed the cowardice of the USA, as he read the letter to the German people, (now if that's not cowardly and treacherous?, then I don't know what is). Hitler laughed at the USA, mocking them, rightfully calling them cowards for refusing to declare war on him! And he, then, declared war on the USA. How embarrassing is that, really? Huh?
In a 1945, state department survey, on the USA's public attitudes to its wartime allies? Britain was the least trusted country of the allies. Just another thing that shows the truth?.
The Americans all talk of winning the war, by supplying it? (yet even that is only another US lie, as I'll be proving below). And all while making an enormous profit from it?, the truth is, they only became a superpower, at Britain's expense. And still lie about it endlessly today.
They were the traitors of WW2, is more like the real truth, and real history of WW2. Nothing new there though?, as that's what they've always been, to every single one of their so-called allies, all throughout their ever so short, and criminal murderous history. Their bullshit is like nothing this world has ever seen before, but when you're useless, cowardly, and brain-dead?, what else have they got, other than their bullshit?
Winning the Battle of Britain, was instrumental in getting Hitler to actually lose the war, (by making his biggest mistake of the war, opening up the second front), more so than anyone actually winning it.
Nevertheless, the Soviets holding their front, before then turning Germany around, and chasing them home to their demise, is what actually ended the war. Most certainly not, the USA, not by the stretch of anyone's Imagination.
The arrogance of a naive nation, when they did eventually arrive?, saw them get a crushing defeat in the desert? Utter tomfoolery, and sheer Incompetence. Oh yes, the super intelligent Yanks, thought, as the Brits had managed to force Rommel all the way out of Egypt. It must be quite easy, so that's where they would gently "ease" their troops into the theatre of war. 40,000 crushed and killed within days!
They then tried to help take Italy?. Only It had Churchill groaning, that he'd expected "a rabid wildcat just let loose, but all he got, was a blubbering whale stuck on a beach" LOL (Churchill always said it exactly as it was and never mixed his words), as the Yanks decided to secure the beachhead, rather than as planned, storming inland to cut off and attack the retreating Germans (as the British forced them inland).
Oh, and then, (as If not bad enough), decided to ignore the plan of cutting the retreating Germans off, but Instead, they headed straight for Rome, (so they could be first), while allowing those top crack German troops the time they needed to regroup and dig in. Such arrogant fools! It's reckoned that foolish, selfish act alone, cost over 400 British lives.
They then decided to commit the most cowardly act of human history, by murdering near on a million civilians, with a nuclear attack TWICE on civilian targets! And then the lies as we can now see today?. They claimed Japan surrendered after the second nuclear bomb?, yet again that's a lie, and it's not true.
The truth is, the Japanese only surrendered after Stalin had kept his promise to invade East Asia, and the Soviets had crushed the Japanese. That, alone, ended all of Japan's hopes of getting Stalin to act as a mediator, for a conditional surrender. And it was only then the Japanese surrendered. It's actually undeniable, as the timing of the surrender proves It. It was just another American lie.
If you read American history? And read what ALL Americans want to say and claim? You'll also find them claiming they supplied the USSR, and it's only because of those supplies that the USSR could fight the War?
While the truth is, it was nothing to do with the USA. And the USA did not supply the USSR with anything until 1944. Far too late to have made any difference at all. As the USSR said themselves! (This is true, they did only supply the USSR in 1944, long after it was really needed). So who was it that supplied the USSR? And who was it that allowed the USSR to remain fighting in the war by supplying them and doing so just in time? It was the British.
The British supplied the USSR with all the military equipment they had and used to fight Germany when they got to Moscow. Before the British supplies landed in the USSR, the Soviet Red Army we're sharing one rifle between 10 troops in places. The Soviets kept the British supplies they received under wraps/secret for years, and they never did acknowledge or thank the UK for that critical help. The USSR only acknowledged they received USA “Lend Lease” supplied to them in 1944. With the USSR refusing to pay for any of it, saying that it was too late (true), and they did it anyway!
But since the collapse of the Soviet Union, much more information has emerged from archives in Moscow, containing Information shedding a new light on the subject. Much was in the Russian-language materials of the (State Defence Committee)-the Soviet equivalent of the British War Cabinet, held in the former Central Party Archive.
While much of the documentary evidence remains classified “secret” in the Central Archives of the Ministry of Defence (Russian State Archive of the Economy). Both Western and Russian historians and researchers have been able to gain access to very important, (previously unavailable) first-hand documents of the USSR's complete war effort.
Together with other recently published sources, including the wartime diaries of N. I. Biriukov, (a Red Army officer responsible for troops from August 1941 onwards). Who was also responsible for the distribution of recently acquired Tanks (from the British) to the front lines. This newly available evidence, paints a very different picture from the USA's “perceived wisdom”, or should we just say lies?
In particular, it shows that British assistance to the Soviet Union in late 1941 and early 1942, played a far more significant part in the defence of Moscow and for the swift revival of the USSR in WW2 than has ever been acknowledged or credited. It was an integral part, a critical part, the most important part of allowing the USSR to counter-attack the Nazi's outside Moscow that very nearly saw the Nazi's completely annihilated (as Hitler refused to allow them to retreat). And without which, the USSR would have been unable to remain fighting the war.
It can now clearly be seen, and now said, that the British help and supplies to the USSR in late 1941 & early 1942, were the only reason we saw the revival of Soviet fortunes in WW2 from late 1941, absolutely not anything to do with the USA at all!
In total, 4 million tonnes of war materials including food and medical supplies were delivered to the Soviets. The munitions totalled £908m (not including naval munitions supplied), the food and raw materials totalled £728m in the 1946 index (approx £4.6 billion today).
In accordance with the Anglo-Soviet Military Supplies Agreement of June 27, 1942, military aid sent from Britain to the Soviet Union during the war was entirely free of charge.
3,000+ Hurricanes aircraft
4,000+ other aircraft
27 naval vessels
5,218 tanks (including 1,380 Valentines from Canada)
5,000+ anti-tank guns
4,020 ambulances and trucks
323 machinery trucks (mobile vehicle workshops equipped with generators and all the welding and power tools required to perform heavy servicing)
1,212 Universal Carriers and Lloyd Carriers (with another 1,348 from Canada)
1,721 motorcycles
£1.15bn worth of aircraft engines
1,474 radar sets
4,338 radio sets
600 naval radar and sonar sets
Millions of various rifles
Hundreds of naval guns
15 million pairs of boots.
Yet you go and try to find this history out? See how difficult it is to find? When it should be the first thing being seen, as it's so important, a huge part of history, REAL HISTORY! Not the US creation of fake history, as they ''pretend'' to see it. That's the truth!
And we also see them claim the supplies we got from them were American supplies paid for by the USA? Rubbish!! Nearly every one of those boatyards and factories, built for the manufacture of weapons, was paid for by the British. The British paid for their construction, and all the machinery needed in them. Not the USA.
Their accounts of WW2 are some of the biggest lies of modern history, as anyone that studies world history will find. This is the real history, the provable history making anything they want to say or claim irrelevant, as this is the real history, the facts.
I read British people today agreeing with the American about WW2? And this really is because none of them have ever learnt the truthful real accounts of WW2 at all. But they've all watched US Hollywood propaganda movies, and they've been taught a completely different account of the history of WW2. So when you tell them the USA were far from an ally in WW2, they just don't understand. Yet, they only need to look up public opinion before, and during WW2, and then they might start figuring out and learning the reality and the truth.

20:19 For a second there thought you were playing out the Spaceballs "Suck! SUCK! SUCK!" scene
Now Im imagining the crew of Das Boot listening to a destroyer going above them
that big menu on the top left ... makes you think you're in the game main menu for some reason :D
You need to pull the qualifications on that Lookout and ream your BM1. CBDR on a ship moving away with a definite bearing drift., Bad look, Boats. Bad look.
Imagine if this game and Uboat were integrated into multiplayer! That would be crazy
This is the game we are all waiting for
would be cool but idk how time warp would work
That would be insane!!!! Literally out of this fken world!!!
I was so totally expecting another member of the wolf pack to come around from the far flank of the convoy while you were busy chasing those three down. Seemed like an obvious tactic.
Lovely video as always! So lovely to nerd out on this, the roleplay, the visuals, the sound effects...i love your videos!
Just enjoying myself so much watching these destroyer videos. I get really into this with your method of presentation.
Liked the graphics in this game but sinking anything is super hard.
That's because you are SHlT
:D You should watch the Cruel Sea, Wolf. Classic British 50’s film set on escort corvettes, based on a novel that’s part memoirs. Depth charges, sonar, attack run, “Instantaneous echo, sir!” “Fire!”. Bit, er, stiff upper lip and all that, what what? :D
30:20 my heart dropped once I realized. You did have them set for medium. Instead of the U-boat, it was my heart that sank😂
44:50 Love your videos dude.
At this time, you could commanded right full rudder and reverse speed. You would turn your nose to him, shortening the time to re-engage
Oh man how much I love seeing a new long video from my man Wolfpack 🐺 every day always so interesting and entertaining love the content man.
How could one make a “story” out of this game? Do you have to take the convoy all they way across? At least with uboat or silent hunter you get order. Do you have a route? Halifax to Liverpool etc?
I stopped video at 38m32sec because Wolfpack345 I am loving the patterns of chasing these uboats.
I absolutely love it to be honest with you and if you can keep them throughout this campaign without clogging your chase of the uboats, it adds a whole other prospective of how you would run in a uboat being the Wolfgang of the German side..
As I said we have seen you many times evade sinking from allied shipping in your uboat campaigns and its good to see the AI dose the same in this game ....
I would hope some day the game creators watch you uboat campaigns and set the AI in Destroyer to evade in a similar and more difficult way for this game
P.s love this regardless been watching your videos for the last year an also caught up on previous years of your channel.
Thank you Wolfpack345 🙌
loving this so far, as with all your vids, carry on with the great work and creativity
34:35 Capitan: commence "pretzel" search pattern.
If it makes you feel any better, I was so exited about your first E run that I didn't notice the cans set to deep either.😄
Donitz is on the phone. He wants you back in an unterseeboot.
I recently recommended this to a recently retired Lt. Commander who’s piloted ships and is certified in Anti-Submarine warfare.
He turned down the opportunity to command a cruiser (I think) with a commander rank and retired to civilian life. He really seems like a stand-up guy.
Who knows, this might scratch his itch and keep him from asking, “What if?”
30:04 i was expecting to see the end credits to curb your enthusiasm after this
This is really cool to see. Please keep posting this game.
More Destroyer videos just make me wish for Sea Power to come out sooner.
I’m sure it’ll practically be a guarantee that Wolfpack will go feral for it.
many thanks for a great lesson....... I learned something watching.......... great video
This was brilliant, thanks 🙏 love this so muh
Wow that first run was incredible!
No, you're overreacting you pagan
30:06 "Overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer"
Absolutely outstanding. One very very minor detail, the PBY Catalina rendered in the game is flying with its outboard wing floats in the down or water landing position. If my memory is correct, wouldn’t these be in the flight configuration, so it would reduce drag and fuel consumption?
14:24, I thought you had ‘em
Nice run!
Not sure how or if the game even models it, but you should be able to turn tighter if you move slower. That could help in attacking the uboats sooner and easier after you finish an attack run.
I don’t think it’s modeled in game yet, but in theory the ship would turn tightest at its design speed and would be worse at speeds above and below that design best speed.
@@johnbeauvais3159 What do you mean by "design speed"? You mean standard speed? As far as I know, the faster a ship goes, the more it's drifting to the side when turning. At 1/3 speed should be when the ship is turning the tightest and then it would gradually get bigger the faster it goes.
Makes no sense to me that standard speed is the tightest turn, since the water is intangible so the ship can drift a lot, the rudder can't turn more than it's max regardless of the speed, and the centrifugal force would kick in as well, etc.
@@Nighthunter6666 so there’s this thing with the length of the wave formed by the bow and the corresponding amount of drag generated by the hull which impacts turn performance. There is a “sweet spot” where the length of the hull corresponds to an Ideal Froude number for best performance. For a Fletcher class with a length of 376 feet the design hull speed is 26 knots. Above and below that speed the wave length adds additional drag which hurts performance
Do you have to worry about your supply of depth charges and fuel? At least with fuel you might be able to get refueled from a tanker in the convoy.
limited resources are planned but for now depth charges and fuel are infinite
Lol that first run on Easy I was yelling at my screen that you had the charges set to deep
Great job!!
Having watched some of these videos, I don't see evidence that any of the following have been modeled:
1. You can maintain sonar contact with the target until you pass over it. IIRC the Allies only got "look down" sonar late in the war-before that they'd lose contact about 500 yards out.
2. Sonar appears to still be effective over 15 knots, the water flow doesn't affect it.
3. Depth charges don't roil the water so as to render sonar ineffective for the next several minutes.
I don't know if thermal layers have been modeled either. The tools and graphics look pretty spot-on, but those poor subs don't seem to stand much of a chance.
YES! MORE PLEASE!!
Cool video! I'm going to start playing
The U boat captain wants to live..🤣
Man this is Greyhound vibes, watched the movie a few times, it’s great
I don’t quite understand what you are doing, but really fun to watch
Ahhh yes uboat hunter love it when the get hunted and destroyed.😁love your the uboat hunters wolfpack. Keep it up😎🤩
Thank you!
Do the subs sometimes fire torpedoes at the destroyers? Also, is the thermal layer modeled (loss of contact)?
Where did you get the filters for the old camera like fotage? Also wouldn't it be cool to have a multi-player with multiple people and each at its designated position on the ship
Great hit at 20:18!
I just bought this game and I"m really loving it. I like how you use the DRT to plot the intercept course. I have to ask....what value is the OSC projector? It doesn't seem like there is much information on there that can't be viewed from the DRT? What exactly is the OSC projector used for? Great video thanks very much.
Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep ;)
Looks Fun!
Life, liberty, and the happiness of pursuit
Heck yeah brother!
That was some good hunting.
I’d be so fucked if I was a sub commander or anything with math, degrees, depth, curvature, or anything with decimals I’m glad people understand this.
Tea and medals all round.
Yay for Mountie, definitely MVP... ;-p
The captain and sonar operator remind me a whole lot of the mission briefing officer from 1999's MechWarrior 3.
Amazing!!
Thanks!
I hope they add Multiplayer with UBOAT, like the old Silent Hunter and Destroyer Command days
I keep rooting for the Uboat until I remember what side we're on this time.
Old habits never die
Ouuu wolf always stoke for the upload an ive been loving this game
I have been really liking it too
Q: why turn into couple of times, and not outwards? It would give you more room to improve course I'd think?
Great game. Wait till you face a sub with radar-absorbing hull, towing a FAKE metal hull ... :D ... and what if the Sub fires a circling torp from the rear tubes???
I wonder if it gave that first sub kill to mountie because they had the contact
If you can't pull off the left turn, you can do a full right turn, pull a loop & line back up... 🤪... Depends on what gives you better targeting 🤷...
Do you ever get to see the submarine destroyed in the little box in the corner of the screen?
If you force the U-Boat to continue maneuvering, he's going to wind up with a "flat can"[dead batteries], and then...
I think theres really good multiplayer potential for this game. Either have you and some friends manning the different stations or have a buddy on another DD next to you and you gotta communicate the bearings, closures and ranges yourself. Would be quite a challenge but super rewarding when you send one down
How long does it take to see an oil slick after you damage a sub?
GG Mountie 🤪
Now you gotta set something up where you can fiddle with a real destroyer's instruments and give us a video of it.
Someone please tell me what the “wake on right/left cut means?”
Any chance of a crossover...with one of the Silent Hunter series?
Greyhound: The video game
So iv googled cbdr and from what i found cbdr was implemented buy UN in year 1992 and this isent 1992 as far as i know?
Think you’ve got the acronym mixed up with something else, CBDR in the context of the video is “constant bearing, decreasing range”
is there any ship vs shp type stuff ?
What's the airplane doing? Recon?
For someone who NEVER played really much Submarine games,but more flightsims...is this a game that a a huge learning curve or will it be ok?This game is on sale now at steam ( april 12th 2023) and am thinking of getting it today....Btw I LOVE your videos!Your comments during gameplay sometiems are hilarious :) *thumbs up*
This game is AWESOME. Never mind the haters, keep it up!
I swear I hear Matt Wagner's voice on the crew.
have you ever sunk a sub with your 5" guns ?
One of these days you'll smack One Surfaced with your Guns.
Are they going to add hedgehogs?
Is there any mechanics for uboat retreating from the combat because of damage? Or even decreasing it's combat capabilities from it? Because these subs are suicidal, they just keep charging on a convoy while being critically swisscheesed.
And I don't even start to talk about those stupid mechanics, when sub initiating attack run on the surface (!) in the enemy's radar coverage (!!), in the middle of combat (!!!)
Does this game include other dangers than u-boats such as, possibly Hipper class cruisers, Scharnhorst class battlecruisers, commerce raiders disguising themselves to other Allied warships as civilian ships (until they meet you), Ju-87s, torpedo carrying German bombers etc? Truth is Allied merchant mariners had a legitimate reason to lose their sleep over the possibility they could face something....worse, or at least more terrifying than u-boats and that would have required something totally different from escorting destroyers than depth charges....
Lets go!
Would you ever play silent hunter 5?
