Default Appreciate Killerfish response and support

I'm very impressed with KF's attentiveness, support and response to community interactions and rapid updates to their appealing game.
Everything I've seen so far is making the game better. They certainly got my money through their improvements.

I expect continued sales to govern how much and how long they can make significant updates.

While I'm still learning the game and its fine points, my only personal major wish at this point is friendly forces. The ability to escort Allied surface or friendly Boomers and wolf packs (understandably not a US doctrine- but we have not had an all-out real life shooting naval war yet) seems missing which is a big appeal. I also understand the immense undertaking that would be to add these models and weapons and support the very complex AI to AI interactions involved as well as success/failure logic. Supporting this effort through the modding channel would also be daunting.

Right now it's the world against my single submarine which in the long term limits the future life after owners have invested large amounts of time and skill. This "me against the world" feeling in a lot of games has been a criticism of many war games in the past. Some games like Falcon4 and DCS have completely obliterated that feeling from war gaming.

Understanding the effort and focus of the current design, this is not a demand, but planting a seed for the future of the product.
