Radio messages question

Like if I went back to earlier saved game, it assumed I already got the sound and doesn't play it again, like the sound is a live event. Hope that makes sense, lol.

Love this game, but so many new bugs, even after 60+ mods. Why couldn't Ubisoft sent us a finished game?

Raven I know what you mean but in a way, I'm glad this game and the others 3and4 are not complete. For maybe the first time we have a simulation created by a company and finished by the players...that's really incredible , besides, I think it's fun modding up the game. Anyway, getting to the problem, I too usually get no replies from the patrol reports in the message box. I am using all of TDW's stuff it's great! Just the patrol report replies.
Maybe we could get TDW to chime in here if he's got any ideas why we have to check the Captains Log, otherwise it may be just one of those things.
As far as the sounds go, you won't hear one unless you have the boat set to TC1 on incoming messages. I have that setting on unless I don't want the constant interruptions. The sounds (I'm also using DBSM sound which is great as well) are really good, A "Morse Code type beeping" sometimes followed by the radioman calling out the type of message "intercepted enemy transmission" or "Message from the BDU", just great.
I hope we can get the little problem of the patrol replies getting into the message box fixed, otherwise just keep that TC1 on incoming messages on and you should hear the incoming sounds.
Good Hunting
