Your assumption seems to be that QA were unaware of these issues and hence Ubi were unaware of these issues and thats effectively why they decided to guage users oppinion by posting a topic in the Ubi forum asking us to justify a patch.
Personally, if this was the case, I would consider Ubi's business processes as being laughable and would certainly not outsource any work to them.
The whole notion flys in the face of "Quality Assurance".

As I am at work and don't have a lot of time to devote to this, I will focus on one point. What exactly about the AI behaviour troubles you?
Some folks complain they are too passive, some complain that they are too accurate and aggressive.
I get my a** handed to me on a regular basis by them. I can also run circles around some of them.
Read "Silent Victory" by Clay Blair. You will find some striking similarities to SH4.

Same as JCC. I always stated a mixed back of DD. Sometimes just stupid other times sink you in 5 minutes. Great mix as you do not know what you are going to get. All that needs to be done is make the convoy merchants zig zag and go to flank speed. Yes, read also unrestricted warfare, notable O'kane submerged with impunity off the Japanese coast, 100 feet of water below or less. Undetected for days or lost DD very easily. I good with DD reaction. Sub hunter needs work!
