I have mixed feelings about the messages. They can be very annoying at times, especially when they arrive one after the other. On one occasion I had 23 radio messages arrive with about two minutes separation. I took the funker out of the radio shack.
On the other hand, the news about the war are interesting and give you a rounded up feel of how the war is going.
Though I have studied WWII in great detail, I find the news interesting.
Besides improving the game , GWX provides a great history lesson.
So despite my GRRRS, I think Cpt Lehman and his nefarious GWXers have done a great job in making SH-3 also an educational game.
Well done chaps!
