Der KALEUN | DAS BOOT als Spiel! Realismus-Karriere im U-Boot-Simulator UBOAT #01 [KAMPAGNE 2022.1]

Dear hardcore strategy borggamers and those who may still want to become one, welcome to a new Let's Play series, specifically y

uboat

, a submarine

simulator

that is currently in early access for almost 300 years and that you may remember since the beginning of On my channel I already made a small Let's Play about it, but I have to stop it because the game was simply too unfinished. The good news is that the game is now in very good playable condition and I have to honestly say that it is. I am really fascinated and impressed by this game, simply fun, atmospheric and above all incredibly exciting, and that is exactly what I hope to show you here in this Let's Play.

In the background we can already see some impressions of the campaign. namely the 1941 campaign with U96, the legendary submarine known from film and television, the ship, the film and the miniseries based on Lothar Günther Buchheim and of course things like attacks on large convoice flies, it is There may also be a spy or two to do. missions with David's agents and ours is also awaiting passage through the Strait of Gibraltar; It all promises to be very exciting and action-packed and I will take you on this journey with me. It's also important to say that I will do it.

Of course, I will again combine the game with my own playing style, which means that I will find that I can play relatively authentic or realistic games, but also not too realistic because that hinders the fun of the game, so I can really recommend it. It is also for beginners if you want to get a movie-like game result, which is not too difficult, but you can do it. However, I would say to play this game with a relatively high level of realism. It requires a lot of power and I have quite a few installed, especially and that's the most important thing.

I've attached the mods I'm using here in this Let's Play to the description below. There is a Dropbox folder where you are. You will find the list of all the modifications I use in addition to the original 1942 submarine commander's manual transcribed into PDF. I will do that. I'm sure you'll also want to quote him from the outside during Let's Play or get some tips. and tricks You will also find there, for example, convoy maps that I found on the forum so that you know a little where the big convoys are going and remember. This folder will surely grow a little over the course of Let's.

Play, but I'd say let's get started without much further ado. Over the course of the Let's Play, I will definitely continue to talk about which mods I am using and which ones are currently in use, for example in special situations that we are active. with a modification that brings the real Siemens S3 torpedo computer with the game when quite necessary it's also fun but let's start so that's where we are U96 in La Rochelle The date is January 9, 1941 I'm very happy because I'm leaving The January 8th wouldn't have been good for me because it's my birthday.

Well, I've already done a few things here. I have ordered my officers a little, of course, now I am here, Alexander Beck, as a little one. then we have Jan Hendrik Meyer is my only reference to my presenter of many years, then we have Thomas Fuchs, our Einzv Hans-jürgen Ostermann, our Funk Obermarkt and Johann Pichler Johann, of course, could not ignore the allusion to which I call to my chief machinist Johann Also, I have already increased my team a little. We will review the recruiting officer. I'm not talking about this now. So we'll go and what do you need, Mr.

Calories? We are sure that we carry enough fuel with us, refuel and then equip ourselves, we will definitely see this if you take a look at the torpedo book Torpedo Storage. I take what is this T1 torpedo with PPI 1 gun, a version 2, the revised and healthy gun has a reliable impact detonator that works well with a build angle of up to 60 degrees from the optimal firing angle, although it can occasionally fire in an angle of 84 degrees. Well, I buy mainly and you can already see the T2 torpedoes. , which are those that work with an electric motor.

They have a great advantage, they do not form bubbles on the surface but they are very unreliable and that is why now I only use the 200 steam. They leave a significant mark but are relatively reliable compared to the T2. However, they also cost me a lot of money, I might have to do that first. We'll have to take some shopping with us and we'll have to keep it cheap for now. We already have 50 cans of bread on board. What are we left with here? 24. Maybe you can put some fresh vegetables in the kitchen and buy them.

Yes, then we won't have any money left, but it might be a little expensive. It doesn't matter, we have a good number of torpedoes on board and, as in the example, of course the potassium supply was not bad either. 1,000 ago, you know what? So the guys have to live here with canned bread because I definitely need other items I need where the potassium absorbing equipment is here are the ones that can always be in the previously submerged state the oxygen content sings over time the air that is contained in The absorbents potassium permanganate reacts with carbon dioxide cleans the air and the oxygen content increases, this increases the quality of the air in the boat, which can always help if you are underwater for a long time, but they are also very expensive, but there are still 330 left to eat.

We should have enough with us. Now I'm thinking about it. What else should we take with us? I still have to load some T2 torpedoes, even though I don't like them very much. Otherwise we won't have a T2 anymore, but that's fine here too. We are full of food, we have ammunition, we have protection on the storage platform, well, of course, now I am also enormously limited in terms of money. We will also not receive a first aid kit with equipment. Bye bye. The submarine is currently two days out of commission until Tobias is loaded, we'll go to the time acceleration here to get the Tobias loaded on time and then we'll take a look at the crew because and that's pretty important. here with the regulatory officer, he would like to see her documents.

There is a murder here. Normally in Newport the crew members are limited, so normal crew members, normal sailors, are limited to 18. I have installed clothing that increases the number to a maximum. of 30 I'm currently trying to date 24 moment 23 and look again and another sailor will give us 450 I think Costs I don't think you can see the recruiting files We don't have the exact price yet so. I'm not surprised. Yogurt plays in the re-registered version. He has a maximum of access to 18 sailors. Honestly, it's very nice. There is a little more activity on the track. People also move and have the advantage of that.

Of course, some tasks can be done a little more efficiently, so it's not surprising that there's a nice red load, a little note, I've already created my task lists and we'll probably run the game or something. Already in the first episode, I am becoming relatively strong with the team. Now I will give a small overview. I set the work hours. I set up the original game for three weeks at first, so I cut it down to. two, the port guard and the starboard gun. In World War II, German submarines actually only had a two-way system. I think today the Navy has a three-way system. four hours.

I have to be honest and admit that I really can't imagine working 4 hours and then 4 hours. Well, eat something, get some sleep and then get up again for 4 hours and be back on duty, but that's normal and I'll talk about duty times here at a different time. We'll do it while we're on the road as well as with duty lists, I'll definitely keep experimenting a little bit later in the game because. the developers have put a certain focus on this when playing, in addition to the simulation and that's where the game really comes from, the pure focus on the team, I don't want to give it all away.

That's why I'm going to Focus on the team here, but it's not too small on micromanaging, but it's enough for you to get your bearings a little bit. The problem right now is that I only have four officers here that now you basically have to unlock through. prestige through the missions that we will do and then everything will be a little more effective. Well, we'll move on to Klaus Schmidt's new orders from high command, to the top secret BDU conferences, then let's take a look at the tasks. We can choose between three good trips in the happy season. 1941 was described by submariners as a happy time because you could act quite well, enemy air reconnaissance was not yet so good, the enemy's astic system was not yet so good. , the reconnaissance was not yet so perfect and, consequently, the submarines could yes, go hunting relatively undisturbed, let's take a look, we have a happy schedule here, square BE1 to bi4, ​​low difficulty, medium difficulty here and high difficulty down here, then we have the attack mission. in Skype the difficulty of the flow is high, it is not surprising that sometimes the difficulty is medium.

Oh, that suits the U96 pretty well too. U96 is the ship's boat and, of course, there was the passage with it. No wonder the difficulty here is high, Rescue Commodore. from the Kriegsmarine The difficulty is low and laying mines in the narrow zone of Gibraltar The difficulty is also low I would say come on, that's what we get here rewards 500 prestige and what do we have here plus 100 what is there for the commodore an officer in The Marina Academy headquarters is added here, there are a lot of rewards, so not really, you know what we're starting, we're starting and trying to sink some enemy tomatoes here in the plan box that you want to select from now, well, I received.

New orders I forgot something We've loaded torpedoes Let's take a look at the ship to see if that's really the case. Yes, there are already four dead there. Otherwise, the point is that the torpedo room is full. There is a lot happening on the ship. Everyone is on board. So I would say let's ask the question briefly Mr. Well, of course, from the Atlantic port, of course, it's nice there. Come on, we don't have to drive across the English Channel or something first, but I can actually sail around here. Now we can set course and go halfway, man, I hope I haven't forgotten something and the ship will sail, by the way, I'm not there yet, I'm 100% sure how.

I'll work out some things, I'll say purely in terms of editing or what or how I can present something because of course you have a relatively long period of time where nothing really happens in the game, my guy has it here now. I leave it here now Speed ​​up a little what I thought is that maybe from time to time I have an original, of course, it is wrong, of course, it is brought in the Word documentary PDF document. I have the original manual for the submarine. then you can take it out of Years 1942 and maybe we'll make it so I can use the time for longer marches or something, but maybe from time to time a chapter or two can be prepared for me to read. out loud today, I'm just taking a look.

I have read the chapter, Section 2 of Underwater Basics for Underwater Attacks and I think you will be able to do it after a while. Feel free to leave me comments below in the section. Whether you like it or not, but I thought it would be quite interesting to read what the service regulations were for real submarine commanders back then, maybe you can learn something else in the game, like I said. What I also found is a combo card. It's the conversion cards that are used in the game, you can go a little deeper here. Time Acceleration are the conversion cards used in the game.

You see, it's a little difficult to estimate which grids something is happening on. but I can still imagine that we can use them from time to time. We can take a look here, so generally speaking, let's go to the underwater map where we are not located, I will say at the southern end. from Ireland and then a few kilometers there a few kilometers is good yes I think the convoy route here approximately In this area it runs more towards the plan square and what do we have below be49 46 45 I think the converter routes should be allowed to pass by the map like I saidYou can also find it in the description below.

I have published a document in the folder in which there will be things that will put cards, which of course will grow over time. I also have a copy of the U-Boat. Then you can use it manually and there you will also find a list with all the mods that I use because I have a lot of things here at the beginning. What do I think the game will do, at least the way I'd like it to? Play it? Don't worry, I won't get too simulated and I won't be too light on the simulation either. I think it's a really good combination.

I also really like to play. in bread into actions, which is the first thing I'm going to do now. Who is on duty here? The fox discovers mine where he can now remove the flag, which I think is too easy to see. , then he can return to the procession. What will be important is to observe how my crew behaves. Smokechimney, yes, that's how our ships are, that's how my crew behaves because I have to be careful down here we see blue bars, I know, but they are really relatively difficult to see the so-called blue bars, which basically means resistance or fatigue right now, not everyone is particularly tired, that's why these lists come into play, as we'll get to that later, the best thing I would say is when I see that we have to adapt right now here at the beginning.

The difficulty is, as I said, I only have four officers, I have a Lin light in the sturgeon, I have a 1 million first officer, um, I have my Oberfunkmart and my Oberschenkisten because Johann, therefore some recordings have to be taken two times and it's a little more. Here it was difficult with the direction, no one is tired and if someone is not tired, but that surprises me. Everyone is active here. Let's take a quick look at the equipment lists, the work hours of the pickers, that is, the chief machinist is on duty. What time is it?

Because now we're just looking, let's slow down the time, it's 12:25 AM. m. That's exactly where we'll have to spend a little time so that Pichler is only on duty for 25 hours and is on duty until 4am. m., then will take over at the time all the tasks I can assign here, whether I am off duty. duty or each task I leave it on each task at the moment because they have the priority or they have the instruction on their lists that sleep is the top priority, that means if they get too tired, they put it on themselves, they just do it in phases in which basically everyone has a job, but on the other hand, it would really mean, I would say, 40 stupid people with no duty, lying around and doing nothing else, which leads to the problem that the mom just doesn't get up if it were possible, which is why I'm trying to resolve what I now have doubts about using this rail Alexander Beck, he's on duty too, he's got a job to do, he's supposed to go to bed, you know? he really can do it right now.

That's all I'm ordering now is him because he now he can lie down. Everything was wrong, clearly stop the baker lying down. Now he can also see that he now he should lie here in the coal of him, so I. I'm here, this is the only one on board There's only one here where it's just coming back and the grain has nothing to do with it now, well then we'll force it to sleep and then we'll continue here with As for the approach, we'll go for more time acceleration . I think it's a very good way, or at least I hope it's a good way, not to go over individual game mechanics in an overwhelming way at the beginning, but to explore them. deeper and deeper little by little throughout this Let's Play and to be able to explain them and explain them a little better, I can understand them, I have never been so 100% satisfied with my team's plans.

What will we do then? We will surface, dive with alarm, but I will go back down 50 meters, returning to the key word realism. I always have my own mix, I hope some of you like it too. It won't be very realistic, there will be things where I say I'll cheat a little bit, I don't know exactly too, that would be right here, for example, let's look at all the planes I could see. I would really like to take a look at the plane now, which is why you can't see it here on the map. From time to time I will easily enter the convoice and watch the ships sink. like a real submarine, of course you can't do that, but well, I mean it's just the best that the high command can see the sunken ship, that's how hot, it just looks good, yes, but serotive shouldn't. work, I should cover 50 meters and here we will also have time.

Speed ​​up a little bit until the plane leaves Thomas at eleven, let's say we'll go until 12:30 and then we'll be Open it again and as soon as you're on the map I'll start it myself. Now that my general staff read it, it's not nice since Throne. I'll show you what I mean here. It works when you order time here. Unit no. It doesn't look good and for me personally it gains quite a bit of momentum so it's 12 o'clock then the alarm is canceled and then we start the march towards the destination area. I hope we experience a convocation there in 1841 on 18 41 1941. there should be a lot going on even in larger convocations.

Speed ​​half the speed show again here slowly for a moment because I want to see what's going on here because he already did it here the Meier has my left. Already left. to sleep, that's good, I was exhausted, that means I'm still using my list relatively well so far, but I didn't want to hide it from you now. As soon as an alarm goes off, I'd like to switch here. Unfortunately, I still have to do it manually. You can easily imagine that later in the game, even if you do it automatically, the various tasks that the top machine performs now have the highest priority and the priorities here in the game are. staggered like this The higher it is, the higher the priority, so the priority is not the highest priority, but priority 1 is the second lowest zero and is even lower.

We can see that Pichler's main focus right now is sleeping, which means he. You should go to bed when you can't do it anymore, but the main focus is to monitor the diesel engines, wait and load in the torpedo room and general service room, you have to take care of both at this time, which is a bit unpleasant . but at the moment I just don't have enough officers, but if the case comes I will have to take a look, if the case comes we have an alarm, we should change the position a little and the collector in Pichler doesn't change much, but we need someone to recharge, so the chief engineer lets Li do it.

Meier, which is the normal list. Now we go in here and change the tasks here to 7, then the torpedoes are waiting. the Tobi's are preheated but they have a higher priority and the service here and send one more and then let's take a look. Let's see if it works, we will save it from the settings. It's not normal, hopefully it's on the enemy. Over the course of two patrols, I'll be able to get a good changing of the guard here, so the radio should of course be up when there's contact. I do not have to. Many things can change because he can continue to be Thomas Fox.

Mine, where should I play Mr. Card? Then you don't need to play cards anymore, it's good for the morale of the troops. The 1st, what do I know?, he does the surveillance post and the small contacts should be taken care of quite well. The Funk Obermarkt too. works Save K9 settings. I'm using it, I don't have fly right now, but that will definitely happen like I said, that's one of those things that I'm still trying to figure out what's optimal and somehow I actually have it. It's kind of fun to do the same thing now for the crews and you can see I've got the port guard and the starboard gun here and maybe I'll be surprised that I've done everything I can when it comes to crew management, which means .

I really have to take care of each little one, even though they don't have much impact. I did it mainly because it always bothered me that with the standard settings, even in the worst alarm case, people are still there. panting through bread and cleaning the floor, so I want to stop that. As soon as we are facing the enemy all activities like cleaning and cooking have to stop, I don't want that and the other things I would say I can also look at how to regulate things a little differently confirms the baking powder on the enemy but still we go to the port manufacturer normally it is a good saving confirms the starboard watch on the enemy but we will stay normal again and that's all for now service lists again but for now here back here a normal one also normal and then it fits well we have already been 23 minutes of walking and none of them have had good contact, of course everything can take a while and I barely see that my camera is sitting relatively uncomfortable there.

Then I'll put it all up for the rum in the next episode because you can't even see one or two things in the bottom left. I would say we will do this until we have the first good contact. and then it will probably be time to move on to the next episode. Yes, our position is indeterminate, that's not good, that's what happens when people don't go to the map. So in case something happens. It doesn't quite work, the fox should determine the position, but then I can see the turn list right here, something is wrong, so the card priority is currently too low.

Let's go to a new one that Fuchs does and also how that will happen automatically in the future. Like I said, it's still a little difficult right now. You can see that someone hasn't been at the gaming table for a long time. For now But I still have to identify myself. The channel is available. Well, finally access is good again. Yes, before anything happens. By the way, we are on our way. Somehow, I could stay here in this view for hours and watch. I think that's just fantastic, so the water went extremely well and we're on our way to our first patrol area and we'll take care of that in the next one. episode.

I'd love for you to see him again in the next episode and we spent a lot of time on the theory, I hope. Of course, I can only hope that as a scuba diver you have a lot of time where not much happens. I hope something happens in the next episode and then I'll see you there. I'd love for you to stop by and feel free to leave me comments and tell me on the first video that I'd like to like one or two. People, that will help ensure the video is found. See you in the next episode, do well and until then I wish you good tactical, operational and, of course, strategic decisions on other battlefields.
