Phantom invisible convoy?

Zanarkin · 08-20-12, 12:07 PM

I tracked a large convoy for a very long period of time (over the course of two evening playing) and when I was within visual range I upped the scope and saw......nothing. I then surfaced and saw nothing. I full speeded right into the middle of the convoy with the map showing around ten merchant ships all around me almost collision range yet I was in empty ocean.

I even rebooted my PC and returned on my third gaming night and still nothing. I just gave up and sped away all while my sonar officer kept spouting their course and distance until I lost contact. My surface watch crew never announced contact despite the map showing squares everywhere.

This unusual or common? I later found multiple new convoys and never had another issue.
