Usn Surface #4
Posted: Mon May 31, 2004 7:41 pm
Ok, this missions is about to drive me crazy. I will tell you what I do and then tell ya what is happening. Please give me any suggestions.
I start out by going flank towards the two subs. I then engage them with my deck gun when they are on the surface. They then dive and I proceed towards them. At about 1500 meters they both fire spreads and I evade and continue towards them. They get off about 2 or 3 spreads before I am about 500 meters from them. Now I go over the first one dropping charges a bit ahead of him and I almost always kill the first sub on the first pass. Now this is where I get stuck. I can not for the life of me get the second sub. If I drop same distance ahead of the second as I did the first he just turns south or something. I tried going slow and dropping over him when he is a 0 knots but then his dot on sonar majically apeards 200 meters away. I swear the damn game is cheating here, its jsut not right. Everytime I get a good dropp on him he either moves/jumps 200-300 meters away or sometimes he even disapears completely. Once he disapears I don't know how to find him, even if I cut engines his sonar dot wont show up. Please help me, im new but have never had trouble sinking subs with practice or earlier missions.
Oh and I drop charges at 150 mostly, but sometimes I try 170.
Thanks in advance.
