That's the one feature that I think is the most glaring omission in SH3.

As was stated before, if you're playing GWX the radio messages from other u-boats mentioning convoys spotted and wolfpacks are purely for atmosphere.
Agreed! Reprting a convoy only gets you a reply that you are alone and no help is forthcoming. Unlike AOD where sometimes when attacking a convoy one could see markers of other u-boats attacking the same convoy and sometimes visually.

Seems that what older games lacked in graphics they made up for with depth and features. :hmm:
