UBOAT
UBOAT is a simulator of a submarine from WWII era, yet different than all you have seen so far. It is a survival sandbox with crew management mechanics while its primary theme is life of German sailors. The boat is their home, but it can become their grave at any time.
In UBOAT you control the crew in order to control the boat. You look after their physical and mental health, because if the sailors are hungry, tired and their spirit is low, there’s no chance of winning even a skirmish.
Survival
The extensive damage system is a foundation of the game's survival elements. Unprecedented situations are bound to happen as the effect of received damage, testing player's creativity and ability to stay calm. You can try to save the whole crew or leave someone behind, to save the others.
While your ship travels through the open seas, you will often find yourself being on your own. Use your management skills to spend resources taken on the trip optimally and in special cases try to recover them on the sea, by asking your allies for the help... or by looting wreckages of enemy ships.
Disable unnecessary devices, to keep your accumulators running for longer.
Tell your crew to stay in their bunks to preserve oxygen.
If crew's morale is low - play with them a session of Skat or play music from nearby radio stations, to fortify their hearts.
Kriegsmarine career
During the playthrough you will receive assignments from the Kriegsmarine headquarters. They are never linear and you may receive additional orders during them or face unexpected problems.
Brave completion of assignments from the headquarters is rewarded with additional budget for the unit under your command and with acceptance of your growing reputation as an u-boat's skipper. You will need that, to upgrade your ship and keep up with enemy's technological advances.
Upgrade your boat for the rewarded funds.
Receive additional permissions for the reputation points.
Buy new equipment - new torpedo types, sonar decoys, CO2 absorbers and much more.
Send your officers on special tasks in the headquarters to, among other things, speed up a research of new technologies.
Accurate simulation
Game's simulation elements are very realistic, but that never comes at a cost of gameplay quality. Despite extensive simulation elements, UBOAT can be played like a regular game and complex matters can be learned later to become a better skipper for the commanded unit.
Even small things like the influence of ballast in each compartment on the ship's trim (tilt) or Earth's curvature are faithfully reproduced in the game.
Perfection can be achieved in many ways. Prove your management skills and swiftly assign work to your officers to speed things up. If, on the other hand, you think that if something needs to be done, it's better to do that on your own - sit behind the periscope, hydrophone or 88 mm deck gun and take matters in your own hands!

Dear sailor, I'd like to inform you that your ship is listing, about to go down and that water's about to engulf you.
And yet he keeps walking as if nothing happened :D
Glad someone else noticed that. Had INCREDIBLE grip on his shoes.
Excellent episode Taff, a change would be interesting, but at this point in the war, it might be the point at which the crew of U96 start to write their last letters home! 😲😉🏴
Nice to include medals in the episode!
3:41 - the "UE" prefix is not a convoy code... UE means it's a group of ships spawned by the Expanded Convoys mod you're using, which is part of the set of Uboat Expanded (UE) mods.
MV GOYA???? You sank that ship last episode lol I suspect shenanigans 😜
Got this game because of your Uboat series’ and it’s great
A change to La Rochelle sounds good. Enjoying the series and your comments. You might want to check that crew member that walked in front of the AA gun. I think he found your scotch.
Ahem, Scotch in ze Kriegsmarine? Schnapps, mein Herr, Schnapps!
A change is good as a holiday.
Go South Young Man.
Watched and 👍 Liked
Having watched all the videos in this series now, I have some suspicion that the Burgermeister of Hamburg may be operating a mail-order bride scheme. Thanks for the video and wherever you go to hunt is perfectly fine with me.
Very nice mission today, great job sinking ships. Transfer would be great too. Congrats on job promotion too.
A change is a good as a holiday :D
13:21 i think youtube went boom in rendering, still happy to watch, even more so after war on the sea
A change to la Rochelle sounds good. Be advised, however, air patrols will be more active. Any chance of upgrading AAA?
You could head for the Med....that always went well on stream :)
La Spezia!
It's torpedo science... (Rocket scientists snicker HERE.)
Warmer waters would be nice 😊
A change of port to France sounds great, good food, nice beaches, where do I sign up ?
The Atlantic would be great coming from French ports. But is there a way you could probably go to the Mediterranean and hunt there ?
The game gives you the option to move through the gibraltar strait and dock at the port La Spezia. So it is possible, yes.
La Rochelle please
kind of cringe that they still have not added the mean's too use the scope on the deck gun
Go to La Rochelle
Go for a transfer
go the the med barely anyone ever goes there
go to the med
Go to the med if you can
