This always bothered me. Only through experience and knowledge do you have a clue as to what it might be.

But then again generally speaking it is an 'upgrade' however if your happy in your current boat /shrug.

I cant see "Hey we have a new boat avail to you... care to take her on?" "Uhhh what kind of boat, what can she do? Whats her weapons, range, speed?" "Well we cant tell you... so you want it or not?"

I`ve been offered new boats several times, always decline, and stay with the one I have. The renown system has always bothered me in SHIII, ans SHIV. New equiptment should be available on certain dates, and according to where you are based at the time. Supplies may, or may not be always available in certain areas. Puts

Exactly. This is why I always cheated the renown system in SH3 and modified it by hand. However, in SH4 it doesn't seem to be necessary, for I always have the money to buy a couple of Cuties.


Another queastion for you guys. I was watching Destination Tokyo last night, and there is the sequence where the boat's cook gives the crew some Christmas presents. He complains that he never gets a medal, no matter what the boat's successes are. Does anybody have any extra information about the cooks on Navy's subs ? Did they ever get a medal ? After all, in my opinion the cook is one of the most important man aboard, and his job can be sometimes harder, because he has to concentrate on something else than the action itself.

I dont like the fact that you dont know what kind of boat you are going to get. Some boats are worst than the one I have now.:rotfl:

Hm serious problem. It seems that my sub will forever be doomed to be "The flying yankee"

I receive a message that Manila is under constant attack, and my based changed to surubaya. Great. I arrive at Surubaya, only to find out that I can only ressuply, but I cannot dock.


I check the map and see that Manila is still blue. So i plot my course to there, only to find out that it is guarder by some jap subchaser. WTF ?


I radio in my status, and I am ssigned a nex patrol zone, after previously being told that I can get back to post (Ghostly Surubaya)

Am I going to spend the entire war in an eternal patrol ? Where can I dock ?
