But since you mentioned this I am going to make it a point to report from now on, at least for a while, and see what happens.
I don't see reporting as brown nosing to authority. Reporting a fleet contact or major resupply run would be giving a heads up to your fellow servicemen, saving lives. The sad part is SH4 does not allow one to make reports as they were really done, as I understand it. I like to play according to the doctrine of the day, not using shortcuts or whatever else that makes 100,000 ton single patrols possible. As it is, I still come in with too large "bags". In any case, making a report before attacking cannot be good advice, so I wonder why Ubi even included it. Better wrong than not at all, or a trap for added combat excitement? As I stated before, I don't do it, I just pretend I gave one after breaking off.
