Stuck with same mission?

I keep getting the same mission over and over again, troop insertion in Philippines. Mid 1943 to dec 43... Would be nice to recieve another mission, last time i just went off the harbor and back again to get incomplete but next mission troop insertion in phillipines..

Have you updated to 1.3?

This was a known issue before, but was specifically addressed by the devs and supposedly fixed in the latest patch.

yes, had 1.2 and went to 1.3 but i continued on my career from 1.2 might have to start a new one?

If you don't complete your objectives there is a good chance you will get the same mission again, plus you will probably be retired early.

They still need the troops there!

This is still an issue with patch 1.3.

Need another great example?

USS Albacore, Gato Class, based out of Pearl:
Patrol 1: East China Sea
Patrol 2: East China Sea
Patrol 3: East China Sea
Patrol 4: East China Sea

All completed successfully, lost of kills each time. At this point I got so annoyed that I saved the game just before entering Pearl Harbor and then played around to see what happens.

1) Medal awarded, refused new sub, stay at Pearl, new patrol assigned.
Patrol 5: East Cina Sea - AGAIN!!! Several re-loads of saved game confirm this.

2) Two more tries: stayed at sea for another week AND another month before entering Pearl, yet again, next patrol assigned in both cases to (you guessed it): East China Sea.

Several re-loads of saved game confirm this, too.

3) Alternatively, I took the new boat (Balao) and get transferred to Brisbane. No need to tell you where my next patrol zone was assigned: East China Sea. Several re-loads of saved game confirm this, again.

What am I to conclude from this??? The next mission is already coded somewhere before I even enter port?
