New assigned patrol area?

FreddaH · 03-15-10, 01:21 PM

I keep getting a radio message telling me to proceed to a newly assigned patrol area. I can't find any indication of where this area is, and it seems to completely ignore that I have a mission area I need to patrol already.

Could anyone tell me if I'm missing something here?

Also, the radio message keeps telling me to "be more aggressive". Apparently sinking more than 50,000 tons on a single sortie isn't aggressive enough for some of the higher ups.

new objectives are shown like an "orange" little flag on the map
it´s almost every time close to your last patrol location

BE MORE AGRESSIVE!

Look for the yellow square icons.

Ah, the orange thingy. I didn't think that could be it as it's at the same location as before I received the message - or so I thought.

Well, glad that's cleared up. Now all I have to do is be more aggressive.

While were on the topic is this 'task' similar to the one in SH4 wherin you had to stay within a certain range of the marker for a certain period of time to 'complete' the task?

Quite honestly I dont know and havent really paid attention I usually end up at near or in the straights.

At least in the first part of the campaign you need to stay within 70m of the west cost of England ones and 200km of the ones in the Atlantic I believe. At least that's what the mission file indicates.
