Sounds to me like they dident have time / money to model other boats and decided to 'end' the war early to put the other boats 'out of the question'.

Personally I'm still waiting on a patch to fix little things like I dunno the crew morale loss.....

I'm not sure if they ever planned to model the type 9s etc..

I think the problem is the interiors as opposed to exterior. They would have to redesign the differences otherwise you'd have the same interiror from a type 7 to type 9.

Maybe they looked the same in real life and that would be great, but if they were quite different i could see its another development headache they decided they could do without.

Just the best years for IX boats ,the torpedo load and speed makes difference in surface attacks against convoys night after night .

Yes, sadly this product has been rushed. In business, the execs always think about the bottom line, so basically, they had to release SHV to get the production cost in the FY10 report.

Now, since they have done so, means they can work on an expansion to get extra boats and finish the war, which is "good" for Ubi's pocket, since they will make an extra 20-30$ (i know that it doesn't all goes to Ubi, but I am sure you get the point), on top of an unfinished product that you may have spent 50-120$ (depending on the edition and where you are) for in the first place.

But personally, this should be a patch and not an expansion, due to all the trouble that we encounter connecting and for a poorly finished product.
