Overall, the interface is simple, but learning how to interact with the game correctly takes time..and it's not boring. You can watch large surface fleets fight it out and join it. I just had close to 80 US planes fly overhead to battle and later pulled 30 pilots out of the sea. I constantly battle convoys of 50 ships or more.
If you're not going to take time to learn the game, you're not going to enjoy it. Again, I can get to Honshu on 1/4 tank, have almost 1/2 to patrol in and get back without a problem.
I go to where the historical battles are well scripted with RSRD. You can take place in every major battle that took place and many minor ones. I watched the Battle of Leyte play out perfectly. Two US surface forces attacked the southern jap force. Kurita's center force came through and attacked the Jeep Carrier Force, planes everywhere....If I wanted I could find a TF most every patrol.
All the tools and info are here for anyone that wants to learn. So many complain that the game sucks because they run out of fuel, can't find ships, ect...when in fact they're not taking the time to learn the game.
We all answer nicely and will help anyone, but you don't come in calling a game stupid or boring just because you want take a few days to learn how to play it. Just attack the game and you're asking to be fish bait.
Don't tell me the games not exciting, here are a few battles I've seen and I've been in hundreds of em.
