First off I love the game, but it has issues, or maybe I have issues and fail to realize it's just me... go ahead and tell me it's just me, that's okay, I won't get a complex about it I promise!

1. Have you ever shot a ship and destroyed it's propellar and rudder, I mean totally knocked it off the ship, then sit back and watch it continue to sail away at 6 knots? OMG it's a miracle! I just obliterated the ass end of a Large Modern Tanker with two torpedo hits, totally knocked off it's propellar and rudder, and then watched it sail away into the sunset while I was submerged dodging destroyers. Boooo Ubisoft!

2. Though many players play for the pure fun of searching for and sinking Japanese shipping, as do I because it's mainly all I've really read about, never the less I miss the medals and awards, things are very lacking in that area. I really feel shortchanged on the medals and don't buy their story that the medals are copyrighted and they can't use them, I've seen way too many other games use them extensively. To top it off how many times will I be awarded that equivalent to the Navy Cross and not receive any clusters to add to it, to me that's boring. I'd love to see a better example of medals for what we've achieved on our patrols. I've won many of the Navy Crosses yet if you look into my medal box there's one there.. It's the same with the others, only one there with no clusters. Boooo Ubisoft!

3. Part of a fun gaming experience is seeing your achievements, and in this I don't necessarily mean medals, I mean wouldn't it be fantastic if they gave us a battle flag designer to work on and after our return to port each time we were issued earned flags to put on our battle flag as we please, just like the real ones from real subs.. Solid centers for sinkings and hollow or white centers for damaged ships. This would really be a hoot to do, especially if they were printable, which no doubt I'd probably do and frame. I know, that sounds kid like in a way, and I'm 55 years old, but I'm really into this sub sim, especially the Pacific theatre .. I can't seem to get enough. There's zero recognition for shooting down a plane. Come on Ubisoft, wake the heck up, pay attention to the fun part of the game, or bring someone in as a consultant that understands this stuff a little better. You guys have done a good job in making the game but you seem to have missed some of the important other stuff, there's still a little more that needs to be done, and you're so close to being so great at what you have.

4. I read someone in the forums that patch 1.3 is the last we should expect from Ubisoft! I don't get it, what's with these companies that release something and forget about it? Isn't the game still being sold to the public, why forget about it like that? This product is too good to just forget about like hamburger in the freezer, it's the most fun game I've ever had, I love it, I hope that's just a fairytale that 1.3 is the last, there's still a ton of fun here that would continue to inspire people to keep buying this if they didn't sit on their thumbs!

So much for my 2 cents!
