At least that submarine warfare was more balanced conditions, but we'll see about testing the game and missions.
Since it is a 'game' and a simulation you have the freedom of choice in choosing sides. But pure realism would say you don't have a choice and even more so you would not know the outcome of the war. Personally I have always enjoyed playing SH3/GWX in the later stages of the war with the expressed goal of surviving. Sinking unescorted ships gets boring after a while. Sinking anything in 1944 is an accomplishment. To each his own. Good hunting in the Pacific.
