The biggest complaint about the maps in SH3 and 4 is that they are too accurate. Most WW2 era maps only had sounding numbers at various points to indicate known depths. The maps in the stock game anyway, are based on modern sea floor contour maps that give far more information than was known historically. Submarines in WW2 would run often aground on unknown shoals and reefs. Submarines in SH3 and 4 shouldn't ever unless you're not paying attention to your plotting.
