Agreed SiegDerMaus. I assume the change was based strictly on gameplay which is why i'm fine with it overall. But on a personal level i'd rather still see the US boats have an advantage even if it's a small one.
That's why i'm hoping to get a DLC with later boats such as the Akula improved/Seawolf (and other boats), while the US still has an advantage, the Russian boats were much, much closer in terms of being close to as quiet as the US boats in modern boats compared to their earlier counterparts during the Cold War.
And yeah, i know about the mods. The deal breaker (for me) is the lack of 3d models on the newer boats in the mods. Hopefully we can get a change that allows modding to change the actual 3d modelling or some DLC to fix that problem! It's hard to play the game when your Seawolf looks like a black 688.
