Been suggested a lot. It will not happen in the short term.

Reload for the SS1 is fine, the problem seems to be that it doesn't have enough Airtime or speed to cross No-man's land. Besides, this SS is "Supposed" to be played as a defensive SS (Which means: Stay back, and wait untill something comes nearby you and hope it is not a good player in a KM SS5).

Improving SS1 will mean that all other SS will need to be changed (Which must be done, because SS are unbalanced and ASW weapons are also unbalanced).

Also (and this is WAAAAY more important) the EXP for SS is shared exp because of torp damage going into shared exp, this is why an SS that does 100-200k of damage only gets like 30-40k exp max.

We all sub drivers are just waiting untill they (The dev team) finish solving the BB5 crap guns issue (Especially the H44 damage consistency), and after they finish that they need to finish the airplane unbalance issue (so that a T4 US fighter doesn't means OMGWTFIGOTUST4FIGHTERFICTORYFTWLOLOLOLOLOLOL, or any other T4 by that matter). Untill they finish those two things we must just sit and wait (or you could contribute with the solving of these issues if you take part in the tests done in the tests server)

If you want more information regarding this (and want to see some pretty good trolls on this topic) go to the test server board and search for the SS5 posts.
