6 months at the sea??

Shkval · 05-28-09, 04:50 PM

I was transfered to Brizbain from Hawaii, and since then I cannot end the mission! 6 months! I sunk about 250 000 tons of enemy ships, battleships, destroyers, troop transports, but each time I'm back, only the "refit" button is enabled! I'm missing the new types of torpedos, and I have a feeling that computer is trying to kill me at any cost! Did anyone had a same problem except the situation at the beggining of the war, when you are forced to be at the sea, because of lack of bases?

I know it told you Brisbane but double check the map. Look for the tilted anchor. Thats your home base. Sometimes it changes it and forgets to tell you.

Today's Boomers don't even spend that much time at sea. Amazing!!!

Six frigging months?

You better hurry up finding your way back home or you wife will be gone by the time you figure where home is.

Scroll up all the messages you have receaved, some times you find there the "new orders" or you can check the saved games on my documents\SH4 I am sure there is away to change the base there. I mean not to cheat but so you can go home, skipper!

Heck of a mission... LOL I bet SW is right... you are probably not returning to your home base. Hope you make it home soon!

Good thing there isn't a "Mutiny mod!" 6 months at sea, the crew will have you walking the plank!:rotfl:

I think fleet boats were designed for 70/80 days at sea in real life.

Yeah I was thinking there had to be some cannibalism involved here.

I would check the anchor icon. I once missed the change and tried and tired to dock at the wrong base.

Six months out at sea. I bet your crew STINKS!

Perhaps the reason you can only refit is that no harbour wants a stinky boat like yours?

P U!

I bet you are the ranking captain in the fleet by this time.

I dont even think your boat would even be running if this were real life. lol

I believe your new home port is Fremantle on the South West coast of Australia. Check there for the tilted Anchor symbol.

Here is the best explanation I have seen for this so far.
