Went back and tried this mode again...if I fire in a BB at a sub thats NOT 'impossible to hit' , even if it dives to 6.0 from 5.9 just as the shells are fired , the HE shells SHOULD hit , moving 0.1 of a meter lower SHOULDN'T magically make them immune. played 3 matches...won't go there again....each match it's been BBs vs Subs at the end and we just played chasey chasey no damage ...for the remainder of the match or until subs that nobody can hit torped the BBs.

Subs have a method of avoiding incoming fire way too easily.. They move to 5.9 depth....then sit there (game counts that as surfaced) , incoming fire...they tap the key to move down to 6.0 depth and then suddenly the shells can't hit as it's no longer counted as surfaced. Tap the up key, back to 5.9 and surfaced with all the advantages back.

Seem to be , do they do a daily re-boot now or something?

Does anyone know if the Mutsuki has a hate mod multiplier for AI ships? Playing it is painful as is , but as soon as I get spotted , it seems that every enemy AI ship in firing range turns it's guns on me. Last match for example , I was just caught at the very limit of my spotting range , there were 3 other team ships engaging 4 enemy AI , as soon as I was spotted , all 4 enemy AI ships stopped attacking them and started shelling me , the sky was literally filled with shells heading in my direction. This even allowed another cruiser which was attacking a BB to get close enough to finish it off using 2 sets of torps un-molested even though he was well within the spotting range of it AND had been firing shells at it for 30% of it's health previously.

Trying to go around the edge away from the cruisers and destroyers to get at the big fat warships usually , sometimes it's just unlucky that the AI ships are forced to turn towards me as they avoid other player torps. *shrug*

I was just in a battle in my Langley , JUST as the game started , the screen went black , I was able to Bring up the Task manager which showed an error box (I couldn't read it because as soon as I lett go of the ALT key the screen went black again) , it said something about 'Bigworld has encountered an error it cannot recover from' followed by some text I couldn't read because the process selection box was covering the rest. The ship has now been 'in battle' for over 30 minutes now and appears to be stuck. I couldn't end the process and eventually had to reboot my PC.

Server came back up ..... and went back down again......guess the water gerbils are on strike
