  • I hate the destroyers! Always ruining my game! lol

  • That's not a destroyer, that's a frigate...

  • @aporlarepublica It's neither. Since it's not a submarines, it's just another target. ;-)

  • good, that bastard deserved it!!

  • She's still plowing ahead as she sinks by the stern and goes vertical? Looks like she put up a fight, eh?

  • Ha LOL im playing SH2 Still!

  • @plavins1 SAME!

  • @andytothesky haha good to know that im not the only one!!!!

  • ANyone else notice that someone says "HEY!!!" When the destroyer gets hit?

  • Other than the special battles, can you find any aircraft carriers or battleships in convoy on this game? I played my crew from 1939 to 1944 and have seen tons and tons of aircraft, destroyers, patrol boats, tug boats, etc etc, but not one cruiser or larger. Is that just bad luck or bad patrolling on my part?

  • @BigBadassR

    Bad luck. I´d convoys with two or more carriers or battleships sometimes. Often you can find a cruiser in a convoy. And with the right Mod you have the chance to take part on big operations like Weserübung, where you can see battlegroups.

  • 200 souls are condemmed to Davy Jones' Locker, including Lieutenant Baker, who made it out as the hatches closed.....at least, half of him did...heh sorry that's dark lol but its from American Dad.

  • Does anyone else find the noises that the ships make as they sink to the sea floor kinda.. Chilling or creepy?

  • Nice hit. I love it when they point up like that

  • someone forgot to order abandon ship

  • Direct Hit to the stern and didn't even knock out his propulsion? Bad luck. Still sank him though. A human captain would've immediately stopped propulsion to minimize the intake of water.

  • Direct Hit to the stern and didn't even knock out his propulsion? Bad luck

  • How do you get to free roam?

  • @vexviper F12 key.

  • If the convoy is small enough, I'll torpedo the escorts first and then take my time shelling the merchants.

  • i did that and these fat little people were in the air and they were sinking :)

  • the guys in the back are on fire yet acting as though nothing is happening.

  • Of course if you actually did that to a destroyer with live depth charges on the racks you'd have blown her whole stern off! shame SH3 can't model that sort of damage.

  • And all the loyal men stayed at their posts :D

  • thats not a destroyer its a frigate

  • @statusquoch1 or an escort destroyer really

  • you should try down the throat in 5.

  • Forget backup, radio reports are useless, all their good for is a history lesson. You could be close to base with 5 destroyers bearing down on your ass and you send a status report right before you dive and later on your sitting at 140 m with the brits poppin' fire crackers all over your ass and out of nowhere: beep, "Radio report received: continue as long as fuel and armament hold out". WTF!!! The least they could do is send out a damn shrimp boat with a deck gun or something. FUCK IT!!!

  • @guitardavid79 send a contact report, not a patrol report

  • this is a super gay video

  • Wait, what happened in this part? A torpedo hit a this British destroyer, but the second explosions followed after the torpedo hit, is it depth charges or hedgehogs?

  • I agree, a hit there from a sub heavy weight torpedo would have broken that DE in record time. Still its a great sim and the ship did sink

  • now the destroyer got destroyed xD

  • its so funny how the people just stand there as there ship sinks, then again, it is a game.

  • What do you expect them to do ? Writing code to have them run around and abandon ship would be a waste of time. On the view from the sub it looks real enough. We just have the hollywood up close cam that will reveal slight flaws such as this

  • just got the hang of playing this sim and learned a few tactics. does anyone play SH3 online?

  • I'm the best player of this game, I could win the sinking championship easily

  • Reminds me of the US U-Boat Captain in "Hunt For Red October":

    "The problem with playing cat and mouse is to know, who the mouse is."

  • In Silent Hunter I don't like when ships are sinking fast. They should sink like Titanic, slow, and you should look at it, and anjoy it!

  • look in the settings there you can choose between fast and slow sinking (Realism Settings)

  • @Paplokh Well, if a smaller ship gets hit by a torpedo it can just take a second for it to sink, depends of course on the size of the ship.

  • @Paplokh

    I've had ships take hours to sink. one ever took all night..... although i did speed up time somewhat. but it still went down veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery slowly.

  • If you're speaking about SH3 I don't know, perhaps it is possible, but in SH4 there isn't any speed option and ships are sinkin fast.

  • dude Titanic was HUGE and most of boats in SH3 are not that huge like Titanic, so they will sink faster, if you want they to sink slowly change the time to 1/2x or 1/4x

    LOL

  • So I am waiting for SH5, there should be something like Queen Mary... Why there isn'y any Titanic mod for SH?!

  • @seusgordo Or just turn on realistic sink times in the options. I had a Polish freighter take about an hour to sink once.

  • @nubbie1944 true. I forgot about this one :)

  • I once torpedo a destroyer who was depth charging me but when it sunk and went down it hammered the top of my U-boat and brought me down the bottom lol.

  • doesn't anybody abandon ship.

  • @mgrande11 lol those depth charge guys are like "Skipper told me to hold my post or no rations for a week!" *head submerges underwater*

  • There are very good and very big mods available for Silent Hunter 4!

    Check out "Fall of the rising sun" or "Trigger Maru" for more realism and better graphics.

  • XD at the end the boat says im fuckin vertical asshole

  • Very nice game. Once I decided (for the fun of it) to shell a destroyer using my deck gun after finally running away from its depth charge attack. (I had no torpedoes left.) I think I hit its gun or something as it stopped firing back early. But it did charge at me full speed, and essentially I played a game of chicken with this destroyer. Long story short, neither of us flinched and I sank after making a manned torpedo out of my U-boat.

  • a Truly amazing game

  • It shouldn't be beautiful when the bow comes up into the air.

    But it is.

  • Right around 1:00 everyone on board is thinking "uhh, that's no good."

  • in silent hunter 3 you are german in the

    u-boot?

  • Yes, you can choose English or german speech and texts, the best alternative is ofc german :D

  • yes you are

    in the 1st part i don't know, the 2nd and 3rd you are german, in the 4th you're american and in the 5th (coming early 2010) youu're german again

  • On the 1st Silent Hunter, you're commanding German U-Boat.

    Silent Hunter 2, you're American in the Pacific campaign

    Silent Hunter 3 - German again.

    Silent Hunter 4 - American again, Pacific again.

  • and sh5 is on a german u- boat again. damn i wish they'd make a kick ass simulation with modern subs. there aren't any good games with them out there

  • change first with two

    and then you are right

  • Thats right , your a german U-Boat captain and you have to sink allied ships of all kinds.The Silent Hunter 4 : U-Boat Missions takes place in pacific and you are there with the german u-boat to help japanese in fight against US/British navy.

  • holy shit...in the beginning of the video I nevver had think that this ship is sinking...and soo quick...thats like hell...

  • im not shure whats wrong with mine but when u play the tatorial vids or even the demo at the begining the picture is not the right colors. instead its basic colors like red yellow blue and green istead of making the picture. any help.

  • Die British DIE!!!!!

  • I never get that Cheering German sound when i hit a Destroyer ;(

  • need to mod it. get grey wolf mod is the best for SH3 they are making the mod too for the SH4

  • ur pry right, ive never played 3 but it seems realy cool, 4 run smoothly on my computer and i find it realy fun

  • I hope SH4 runs on the custom build laptop I am waiting to come. I would be happy if SH3 will play with the graphics and not like this desktop where the water surface isnt generated. But the graphics card is supposed to support Pixel shader 3.0 or something like that and Direct x 10.1

  • yea im not an expert on this stuff so idk if it will work. it pry will sounds like some advanced material, my computer was made in 2007 just so ya know.

  • Same as me I am not a expert all I know is that some people on Silent Hunter`s forums from their main site are running SH4 on basically old computers and say long as your drives supports direct X 9.0 or 10.0 what ever SH4 calls for youll be fine. I think I should be I mean its a 512MB graphics card that supports 10.1 DX and 4.1 pixel shaders I think or 3.1 and SHIII calls for 2.0. and I also have 4GB of ram soo it should work but I will wait till I see the game fairly cheap to try.

  • I thought I would give you an update got the laptop and I tried to get SH3 to work on it but kept saying even running the program as an adminstrator and in XP and windows 98 mode and the game said it didnt detect it. So I got SH4 Gold edition and it runs great even running the game at max graphical settings the pc blows barely warmed air out the exhaust vent.

  • glad to hear 4 works on it, idk whats wrong with 3

  • I've got the very same problem w/ SH2 on my Vista PC ( 2.66 quadcore, 4gigram, etc...) Hardware certainly is not the problem here...

    i tried running it in 95/98/xp/2000 mode w/ administrator on / off and SH2 started loading the mission/campaign, but instead of switchung to my boat, all there was is a black screen. What's really strange is that taskmanager tells me that it isn't frozen.

    Any ideas on how to fix this problem ?? please!

  • i got this problem to.

    I went to control panel/ Nvidia control and let the program (SH) choose it setting it self, after that it worked

  • I like the graphics of SH4 but the game play of SH3 is better in my book. I just like the whole Uboat in the atlantic over US subs in the pacific. Not to mention I heard lots of people complaining about how SH4 doesnt have the wreckage in pearl harbor but I dont know if they resolved that with a patch or a mod.

  • Comment removed

  • Schwupp di wupp

  • 1:51

    Im fucking vertical asshole

  • L class destoryer right there...i think.

    I remeber whe ni first seen this, i was like "Oh, great its just sailing on...wasnt till the smoke poured out did i realize it WAS sinking...

  • acoustic torps work great against escorts- i sometimes will kill the escort of a convoy first- then pick off merchants with no worry

  • Yep I love having the acoustic torps but its Jan 1943 in my first carreer and I am not getting the acoustics anymore I guess they are on limited supplies now but they were great to keep two tubes loadedwith them in the bow and one in the stern just incase a destoryer starts pinging you.

  • i know- i would equip with like 3 acoustics before i patrol and often i would get caught up in heat of sinking merchants and accidentaly fire one at a merchant- which is totally useless

  • I have had three errors with the acoustics before lately. All three of them the gryoscope didnt turn the torpedo and i just ran straight. I have SH3 Commander and got the Malfunction/Sabotage tured on so thats probably where it came in but the only merchant the acoustic I could get to lock onto was like the T2 tanker or the troop transport. Found that out by accident when it lost the destoryer and picked up the T2 and the troop transport

  • SH3 is like more epic wiht the germans sups

  • got her right in the ass

  • SH3 with GWX 2.0 :)))))

  • SH3 in my opinion.

  • whats better SH3 or SH4?

  • thats a tough call, gameplay wise sh3 graphics - sh4, both good though

  • lol, crew stands still as boat sinks! Love this game, listen to wolfpack by Sabaton, you'd like it!

  • thats not a destroyer sorry dude its only a flower class Corvette... but still one hell of a job

  • WHOA she sank fast!

  • I'm having trouble with my SH3 game. My computer says it's got all the minimum requirements but it's missing a recommended one so it won't run, can anyone help me please?

  • super ;) 5

  • Wow that DD went down quick by the stern.

  • jajaj titanic... ajja

  • Nice man, it's fucking tricky to destroy a destroyer^^

  • well is you get it on its rear u can destroy them very easly and safe only 1 torpedo needed bad thing is they dont have much tonnage merchants much more

  • I'm still waiting for some decent french simulations... turning around and running from every enemy encountered sounds like fun! You win the game by surrendering.

  • LOL. That's so wrong.

  • Somebody didn't sound GE in time.

  • wuz the destroyer leaking oil off the stern?

  • petite fuite a l'arriere du vaisseaux commandant!!

    -mettez y une rustine !!!!lol

  • with what program have you record this game?

    because the quality is very good!

    and luck that you won´t be destroyed!

  • "c'mon! go go go go gloop!" *bubble*

    hehe

  • lol! gutted.

  • ty ty :)

  • of me and i didnt sink all my men were on the deck gun and then i looked up and saw the propellers and i thought how the hell did i get down here so i ordered crash dive but it was too late there was three men and only one campartment alive and functional so i repaired it and orderd blow balast and with my luck i still had a commander that was qwalified for the helm and two other workers and as i was going up i hit the bottom of a merchant and then i lost the mission and you i had 50,000 t lost!

  • amen for revenge way to go cyb show em whose the REAL boss of the sea

  • something simmilar happened to me. Left Brest in U-99 and was halfways to the western coast of Ireland when I encountered a V&W Destoryer. Depth charged me and I took on water in the stern compartments and sunk to the sea floor 134 meters. Didnt know much about the game at the time and didnt know you had to go off silent mode to do repairs and everyone died after the stern two compartments flooded after 3 hours on the ocean floor lol

  • in single mission "Happy Times" i sunk a total of 50,000 tons of tonnage then i ran out of torps but i was switching from deck gun to torps all the time then i came to the serface and fired a shot at a destroyer it turned and i fired again two armor percings to the front left at the water line folowed up with two star shells and two high explosive shells the it went faster and turned headed stright for me i figured that i could sink it but i was wrong something happend and the ship went over top

  • i remember one time in Silent hunter II i had a mission to sink some destroyers (polish i think) i confirmed two kills but cant remember if i got the third or not

  • i came across a carrier group in 44 west of morrocco. but was out of position and blew it :(

  • 1:49 HOLLY ****

  • LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

  • I sunk a King George but I dont rember were it was they had been escorting troop transports

  • I think that you can do that during single-mission mode, or you can always try and arrive at certain areas where you know ships are going to go.

  • My brother (the total Silent Hunter freak) told me that in one career mission he bagged 2(!) Nelson-class battleships and a heavy cruiser S/W of the coast of Ireland in mid 1941. Best catch he had so far.

  • It's funny how they all just stand there as the ship is going down lol

  • I think the captain is the only one that left the ship.

  • @CCampLI Yeah lol xD 2 guys with anti-aircraft machineguns just standing there.

  • What do you expect them to do ?

  • good shot

  • lol, the guys are still on the freakin gun. Well it's sinking

  • Yah. It's even more amazing than the guys on the stern are staying put, despite the depth charges RIGHT NEXT TO THEM being on fire XD . It is a very realistic game though.

  • you make a good point

  • What you can't see, is that they all sport emo combovers, and have grown quite tired of living.

  • Either that or they're the 'challanged' crew-members.

  • rofl

  • what countries' flag is that.

  • looks like sweden and the union jack

  • i was being sarcastic GOD

  • okay, jeezze

  • canadian

  • its $4.98 now!..saw one yesterday(dec.26)!I wanted to buy it but i wasnt sure if my system can take the game

  • Nice. The British keep fighting to the end.

    I plan on buying this game very soon.

  • have seen it localy now for 10$ new :)

  • Maby try the new Silent Hunter 4 ?

  • Nah. I want to command a German boat. They were the best.

  • Good lad!

  • that is german, lol

  • can you tell me if silent hunter version 1.0 have some good mods?

  • is that the actual time

  • One time I hit a destroyer in the ass. Then boom. When the smoke was gone the destroyer was gone lol

  • sorry...now I remember. once I hit a destroyer at 100%. it was after an succesfull attack on a convoy. it spotted me and came straight to my poisicion. I fired a torpedo straight into his face and went down. When I was at 100 meters I heard a how the torpedo explodet and the how a ship went down...it must have been the destroyer.

  • yeah there is a anctual term for it too, its a tactic used in ww2

  • The captain of the U.S.S. Harder used the same tatic too. He'd let destroyers charge him, then fire torpedoes "straight down the throat" before crash diving. He sank about four to five Jap destroyers at Tawi-Tawi using this tatic.

  • but there you can see that the game KI is quite good because after sinking the first destroyer the second one came in a zig-zag toward me

  • Pwned!

  • nah mate he was totally pwned! That baby sank faster than America's campaign in Iraq

  • Yeah I hate those pesky destroyers.

  • that is nothing

    I once hit the ammunition....that is a nice fire and in less the 60 sec the destroyer is benath the waves

  • dude, one time i pulled a U-571 and that sucker went under in less than 45 seconds. not to play the "my thing's better than yours" game, i'm just saying you get that sucker, and he's goin down.

  • what do you mean by you pulled a U-571?

    I have to admit that on 100% realism I never hit a destroyer yet.

  • in U-571 the submarine survives an attack from a destroyer by firing a torpedo from the stern tube and blowing it to kingdom come. i'll admit i don't play at 100% realism, but you get the idea.

  • yeah i have a nice clip of one when i hit the oil tanks, was a strip of fire about a half mile long behind it

  • lmfao

  • i like the noises too

  • I love the squeals and groans of the ship as it goes under.

  • The ship crew didn't even care. xD

  • It's very funny that u see the crew on deck when the ship sinking LOL!

  • Jajajajaja ese cabron ya no se levanta. Bien hecho

  • all my life i admire the U boats

  • have you ever noticed when in this game a ship is sinking, the guys always remain at their place, but when the navigator says unit destroyed that they abandon posts?

  • What the heck the people at the back ARE really retards......nice though

  • this video is very blue... (i have silent hunter 4 now and, when i see videos of SH3 i can't help to think that, it's better than 4)

  • the 2 guys right at the back of the ship are retards at 1:20 they stay were they are and drown! wtf??

  • notting like sinking a ship with silent hunter 4 i ramed one ship with ym sub and it broke in half and the sub came out with hardly a scratch it was to funny
