I just installed the game. I've been playing the demo for the last week. Now I have some questions:
1. I've got the US version. I installed the patch mentioned on Dreamcatcher's FAQ, even though I wasn't experiencing any freezes. Is that OK?
2. I tried playing the first US patrol, where the corvette has to sink 2 drone targets. There's a sub there, too, I see. At some point the red marker is nowhere to be found on the HUD. Is the sub running so silent that nothing appears? More confusing is that even though there's no indicator where the sub's position is, I'm getting messages in green "SUB DETECTED TO THE......". Isn't this a bit conflicting. How is the sub detected if there's no indication on the HUD? I also saw no physical indication of the sub in the water when pressing F5 and scanning in the external view. I'm hesitant to move on until I clearly understand what's happening and this is just the first training mission! cry:
3. How can the in-game music be shut off without shutting off the music in menus and patrol description screens? I enjoy it while reading but not during a mission itself.
4. The game does not seem to allow for more than one player name on a single PC. That is, I would like someone else to be able to play the SP game on my PC but under his own name and not effecting my record. Is this possible? It should be!
The sooner you answer, that faster I'll get back to you with more questions. cheesburga:
Hey............ why's everybody running away?

Ooops........... another question:
5. I tried uploading a private avatar file but the load failed with a generic message saying the file type was not valid. I tried a JPG and a GIF version of the same avatar but neither would be accepted. The GIF is 11K, the JPG is 26K and both are 150x150 pixels.
