It's not the worst thing about the game, but yeah, the crew is pretty fat for the early-40s. (Look at reams of photos on-line.) They also have hair way too long and non-reg facial hair when leaving port.

I like the different heights and body types. One officer's head is mostly bald (yay!) One guy has a Clark Gable 'stash. But they're dumpy.

More than that, and I understand Ubi is in Romania, but the voice-overs just blow the immersion for me. They all sound like Kansas newsreaders or SoCal surfers. Americans in 1941 had THICK regional accents--way more than today. We need the Bronx, Appalachia, West Texas, Atlanta, North Dakota, Boston. Too much to ask for at this point I know, but in future . . .

Ah yea, never thought of that....people moved around (work and school wise) less in those days. (Pay my location no mind my family were a bit exceptional). Heard from British and European collegues the same held true in the "old countries."

Modders can take care of that however.
