Special Missions

[Méo]

I'd really like to have the possibility to be selected for special missions in campaign mode such as:


- The raid on Scapa Flow. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:U-47_raid.svg

- The raid on Aruba. http://www.uboat.net/boats/u156.htm (middle of the page)

- Operation Kiebitz. http://www.uboat.net/boats/u536.htm

- Other missions (i don't know all) or maybe missions that never happened!


This would had a lot of diversity in a war that lasted nearly 6 years. Or maybe it could be in an expansion.

A lot of U-Boats were sent on missions to establish weather stations in remote areas like Greenland and Labrador. That could fit the bill. Weather Station Kurt in Canada was the most famous example. It wasn't found again until 1981.

Yep (i didn't know about it).

I know it's another request (devs must be tired to see us asking over and over), but SHV has so much potential.

how about a mission where you get a chance to save k.m.s bismarck in its final hour the battle where it gets its rudder jammed and torpedoes finish her off


can we get a chance to save bismarck ????

Only if she eventually returns the favor and saves me from the bevy of destroyers that finish me off someday.

dont let the dd's worry you 1 or two ok

but more keep an eye out

Special Mission: Be more aggressive!

That was a special enough mission for me.

Wouldnt we just make our own missions like in SH4 . The only problem i had with missions is that once you have mods they wont work unless you use the same mods as the modder who made the mission . I think .

[kptn_kaiserhof]

so make it work with mods you devs

its all about the ships, if you make missions with lets say TMO+RSRDC mods installed you may use non stock ships in your missions and what happens is if a person not using those mods tries the mission then the game cant find the ship it needs and gives you a CTD.

another is the ship "type" numbers changed in v1.5 for iowa and yamato supper BB and the large passanger liner conte verde so thats why v1.4 missions crashed when played in v1.5 and also why v1.5 missions crashed when played in v1.4

its the simple little things like that which cause headaches

U-518, and I'm sure others, also landed spies in Allied countries.

It would be nice to be assigned special missions during the campaign, and, since SH4 had them, I don't see why we wouldn't. That said, very special raids and such should be very rare and only given if we've proven ourselves to be among the best (which means I won't see very many).

I really find very interesting the special mission designed to U-166.

I'd like a chance to try some of the late war missions to ship advanced technology to the Japanese. As I remember there were a few boats tasked to take everything from mercury to jet engines to entire disassembled aircraft to Japan. Could make for some tense missions, trying to avoid both the British and American navies.

[kptn_kaiserhof]

that would be a great feature
