Beards grow to fast.

[oscar19681]

They should tweak the beard growth. Going from fully shaven to a full beard in 1 day seems a bit to much of a stretch. Love the detail though

Wait beards grow? I must not care about my crew.

[oscar19681]

Yes they start of with no beard, and after one day they grew a full beard.

That is a bit fast,
maybe after day 10 they devolve back in to chimps and throw poo at each other.

Only happen to my sailor crew, but my officers seems to have slower growth, they last 2 -3 patrols before turning completly bush monkeys... Anyone else have like that?

Anyway, cool feature, hope they can add an option to shave the crew, without out having to go to customize screen, and maybe make them actually do it so we can see they are shaving, with animations aboard the ship. Like If i could take an officer, go to any crew menber and ask him to shave, with some kind of FFP interaction, Would be awsome...

Are we sure beards are "growing", and that it isn't just a bug applying the full beard mistakenly? I ask because despite giving none of my officers a full beard, they have one within hours of being on patrol. I go to the customisation screen, and boom, they're back to the way I set them forever. I've never had the full beards "grow" back a second time.

If beards are your greatest problem then i envy you ....

Game has so much issues with core mechanics that i dont think beards should be touched until like 2 years from now on.

I dont see how people have problems with it. I can play the game relativly well with occasions bugs officourse. The Point is there are still game breaking bugs that prevent you to really get Some progressive gameplay that prevent to really get a career going. But i didnt expect to from an EA game

With bugs I can cope, but not with badly designed mechanics.
Alarm for example no way you can turn it on or off on your own, discipline dropping just because im stalking a lonely merchant on periscope depth, some officers sleeping through whole attack, because.. they can, sub takes miles and miles to turn if you are not going flank speed and so on...
TBH i never even noticed that beards are issue.

I like the game, but please a fix about beard times. Three days at sea for to have a big beard is imposible, or perhaps a German things at sea (?).

By a mod on Skyrim game, you have beard cycles on T.E.S. V, and they are realistic, here totally not in your game. It is really funny. Santa Claus's beard (or an American biker) is at to come in two weeks at sea. Please a fix, thank you.

you have a lack of imagination , if a beard grows that fast what other areas do as well .................. ah Sh## here we go again

[Ctbb.]

Yes i agree! looks like my crew is a band of talibans in a day ore two way to fast.
most crew was around eighteen should just have some moped mustashes at the best.
make those Toilets of some useful tool more milkansikten onboard.

This is an ooooooooold thread.
Anyways, just wanted to point out that most people saying this game are broken are just newbs lol

Discipline system is being reworked but officers are sleeping thru an attack because the dude doesnt understand crew schedule. Theyre following his orders by sleeping.
The sub in this game is more maneuverable than a real Uboat - his whining about turning is so funny

CHECK your dates please....
When the posts were made this was 24h old thread from 2019!

What is alarming however is that some of the issues are still not fixed.

[Geandily]

They're not issues imo. It's a misunderstanding of the game mechanics. The subs maneuvering is fine and you had a schedule setup that allowed for sleeping during combat. That's what you told the game you wanted to happen - a better tutorial is needed to fix that.

As per the alarm; why should you have a button to calm down your crew? The alarm could theoretically be turned off but your sailors are still gonna be scared. Maybe not against a lone freighter people wouldn't be scared but other mistakes related to discipline during any combat situation are possible.

Hopefully the new discipline system is more fun

Hi,
Yes, it is the spirit, May 2019-May 2021. They are the same impossible beard cycles for the German sailors, since 2019 (no change on 2021).

Big question, to create a new thread about that on Steam or add here in an old 2019 thread a new message from 2021?

It is clear that beard is important in a game, and that problem in this game on 2019, is still here on 2021.
