Silent Hunter 5: Battle of the Atlantic Message Board  

has anybody elses game done this strange bug where you select a mission, go out to the yellow indicator and kill something then it says its compleated that objective but then i never get anymore of them and if i go back to base i have to retake the mission, frustrating

Yep.. i got the Northern Patrol area(Rute), the mission is to sink 5 ships, now i've killed 20+ ships, but it still say kill 5 ships(the bar won't fill)

And ive even killed the freaking carrier...

I have yet to test this out in game. But i have done some reading on the UBI forums and it would seem you need to sink specific types of ships.. "they look like Troop ships" But are not troop ships.. Whatever that means.

It would seem the requirements for completing missions are really specific.. IE sink this Exact type of ship etc. It doesn't say that though in the mission briefings..

Well.. i sunk a british U-boat;-)
