This coming from a newbie who just got SH3 last week and is enjoying it immensely.

----------------------------------------
News/Current Events Updates

I'd like to see more updates on what's happening in the larger conflict. I've only been playing a short time, but I'd like to see newspaper-like briefs displayed stating that Warsaw has fallen, Denmark and Norway have been invaded, the first air-raid on Berlin took place, etc. etc. These would be especially great during load times.

Although it's not so realistic to get such updates at sea--well, wait a minute--the crews could turn to radio stations when surfaced, right? In any case, it'd be nice to get those updates at sea as well--just to be aware of what's going on in the larger conflict.

These messages should merely be noted--not intrusive enough to interrupt time compression or require player acknowledgement.

----------------------------------------
Concentrate on ONE Playable Side

I've read a few requests here for people to be able to play as Japan or American or Dutch or British or Australian or etc, etc. Please just concentrate on playing as the Allies vs Japan, if not just the Americans vs Japan!

I think it's not realistic to expect the developers to develop good AI based on the varying equipment and doctrines of multiple nations within the timeframe of a commercial release of a game like this. Please just concentrate on the AI for the Japanese side--I want quality, not quantity!

----------------------------------------

That's my short list for now based on my short playing time so far with SH3. I'm sure I'll have more as I play more!
