Hi, i would recommend to be pacience. If you play RSRD for a while the initial frustrations will run out as you discover the sweet spots, and the is the reward of RSRD will not be a challenge anymore. If you learn those things too soon then you burn the campaign and will get bored with the game. That is my avice if you like the game enough to play it for a long time and enjoy it. If you just want to play the game occanionally then you can read some of ww2 pacific war history or just take a look at the ME files.

It also happend to me the first time i play the campaign, 2 patrols not anything to shoot. But this will change as you play. One little trick is to time compress either sumberged or surface pop out the clock and when you see a sttuter it means the game has load something into your sonar range, about 20nm, thene submerged go to sonar station an look for the green light, and you have a ship there. This 20nm is far beyond your sonarman cpacity and the suppoed capacity of your sonar ( about 7000 yards RFB in the begining), but it works and it seems to me unrealistic that by 1942 us sonar could only range 7000 yars while the german sonar could range about 20 kms. So although some consider it a cheat, i do not think it is, and brings more excitement to the game, since you are in a huge ocean by yourself and with a crew half blind and deaf.
