StarLion45 · 03-27-08, 02:14 AM

Now i have a question to you . When i'm on patrol i get those radio messages , and those other u-boats sending radio messages all the time.
Here's the question . Can i send a radio message ( not status , or contact reports ) manually example : From U-46 to Bdu . Nice weather nothing to see ?? :p I'm new on GWX 2.0

No.

Well you can't argue with that reply can you

must have to pay by the letter :hmm:

Canovaro · 03-27-08, 02:43 AM

Not in the game unfortunately. The sending message feature in SH3 is rather limited.
If you really like sending messages to bdu, check my signature below.

Mmm...if we could reply in SH3
I would reply

''STOP FILLING UP MY PM BOX !!!!''

sometimes 5 messages in a short time drives me nuts

Probably best to look at it as an survival issue. I'd love to chat who's 'got more tonnage' with my neighboring U-Boat, but if we all start chatting we're giving the British radio direction-finders lots of lovely triangulation information and the Bletchley Park cipher guys are probably loving it too.

If you sent BdU a message saying your new to GWX, they will conveniently send you to BB89 without a properly qualified flak-gunner

You can send contact and progress reporst; though it won't make any difference. In a few hours you'll get a reply that says something like keep up the good work and what not, or if you're out of torpedos to return to base.

tomfon · 03-27-08, 08:32 AM

...or ''press the attack'' if you haven't sunk any ships...........yet!

Yeah, I got a message saying "Be more aggreessive", so I turned around and punched the chief engineer.

If you send a contact report there is a random % chance that air or naval assets will be sent to assist (usually air).....dependant on where the contact is and the proximity of such assets.

Uh, yeah.
A while back I spotted a nice fat cargo ship near the south coast of Wales. I dutifully reported my contact as I began to maneuver for attack. A few minutes later my Watch reported incomming aircraft. As I prepared to dive I watched a pair of dive bombers sink my target! Blasted Luftwaffe!
