Thanks for warm welcome. I still remember DC/SH2 league. Me sitting snowed up to my very nose somewhere in Iceland hunting down the u-boats and defending the convoys. Those were the days.

I hope you can bring the pre-radar era and more flexible options of the battles. IE no air support, possibility to switch between the escort ships and human control. As experienced DC skipper I personally miss few stations. IE central artillery fire control of the warship.

Suggest you to fix the combability with the graphic cards as this is really irritating. I run this game on Hewlett Envy i7 with 4K display Iris XE graphic card and all I can see is **** blank screen. It happens on all lookout, external view, bridge view, cannon monocular. I simple cant see ****.

We'll take a look at this. Sorry for the inconvenience.

No need to apologize. Treat my posts as feedback of the user. I generally love the game. As experienced DC skipper I do make the mistake of comparing DUH to it. The issues with external view are a little bit irritating but as experienced skipper I rarely use them anyway. However it would be nice to have the view at the disposal instead of the blank screen. Similar things happen on the bridge. The screen can go black and that's about it.

TZN - są problemy kompatybilnością gry z kratami graficznymi. Nie chodzi nawet o widoki zewnętrzne, ale o DRT czy TRR. Na zbliżeniu w ogóle rozmywa wszystko. Nie jestem w stanie zobaczyć na jakim namiarze jest ubot. Muszę zgadywać i ustawiać pi razy okno. No i słabo to wychodzi. Sonarzysta AI jest do bani jak w Destroyer Command. Ubot może mi przejść kilkaset metrów obok burty całkowicie niewykryty, ale moment, w którym ja przełożę ten suwak B to sonarzysta AI ogłosi, że ma właśnie kontakt. Z tego względu w DC też zawsze sam słuchałem na sonarze. No bardzo szkoda, że odkryłem tą grę tak późno, bo o kampanii i gry bez błędów można tylko pomarzyć.

Default lookouts

This is what I see. This glow comes from the ship herself. The same is happening with the freighters in the convoy. Every ship simple glows like the torch.
