Here is a sneak preview of the how the ship sinks in the upcoming patch.

As a sailor I absolutely do not enjoy watching ships sink... so I tried to take a few shots while closing my eyes...

i think the patch only has the sinking and score for now

Hudizzle · « **Reply #10 on:** August 29, 2007, 22:47:23 »

I see a "mission failed" thing pops up after sinking. Will that window pop up in free mode too? Or is that already in free mode?

Hi dragongfx!

I cannot garantee that all the following features will be in the patch, but as you can see from the pictures posted around the forum there are several

new instruments:
- rudder indicators
- compas
- rev counters
- radars
- VHFs (only for decoration so far)

New vessels:
- Hovercraft
- Jetski

New features:
- Save function
- Ranks
- Internet stats
- Sinking
- Mission editor
- Relative speed condition (when transferring people and connecting lines)

Fixes:
Mission bugs
Better ship's dynamics
Ship's nav. lights

Hmm... I guess that was all what I could think of...

Regards
groennegaard

Not too long, but I had battered her quite a lot before she sank

No problem

I should've explained a little more, it was roughly 4 minutes from last hit into the wall to final sinking

Shipaddict · « **Reply #21 on:** August 30, 2007, 15:32:41 »

That's a good long time compared to the 4 secs bug!

Indeed, I guess it depends on where she first starts taking on water.......only guessing though

Shipaddict · « **Reply #23 on:** August 30, 2007, 15:43:37 »

yup! was that in free roam?

[RWP]DJM · « **Reply #24 on:** August 30, 2007, 15:45:14 »

It was, just tried the Water Taxi in Mission mode, sinks quicker, but it is a smaller vessel
