Why only partial attempt at making this game realistic

[stormbird]

OK i am only now finding that despite the fact the makers of SH4 have gone to alot of trouble making the submarine as realistic as possible, they have dismally failed to make the rest of the game realistic. Numerous times i have sailed to areas where Major Japanese fleet actions a supposed to be taking place only to find nothing. So many historic battles never take place in the game. What about production numbers then, heres a basic list of actual WWII japanese warships (basic i know i am missing ships and classes)

When i do come across a Carrier battlegroup or something i am finding a large mix of Destroyers with the odd Heavy/Light Crusier or Battleship, and about 3-4 Shokaku class carriers with equal amounts of Akitsu Maru Escort Carriers. And its not a minor numbers miscount, say i sink all the Shokaku carriers a couple of days later i will find another large group of them, and then another and another. Seriously if the Japs REALLY had this many carriers they would have wiped the Pacific fleet off the map. And its not just the capital Ships its everything. How are they saying this game is so realistic when it ain't.............Don't get me wrong i love the game and have loved the previous ones too, but it could be better, at least SH3 never had super unrealistic masses of carriers like this one


Three Yamato classes and counting
