Bonus objective bugged

Post by Spatule »

Mission : Christchurch, New Zealand

Bonus objective : Sink US ships in less than 10 turns

Bug : After clearing the entire US ships in about 5-6 turns, it was not marked as completed. When I reached turn 10, objective was marked as failed. Restarted the mission, same thing happened. Checked the entire map with planes, used sonar everywhere, not a single US ship to be found.

Is it a simple bug that prevents from completing the objective or is there a very well hidden submarine in a corner of the map, which would be a bit tricky ?

if you have the save, retry it with the cheat key to see what you have or may have missed, yes it may spoil it for you, but there will be a ship somewhere, you just may not have found it

viewtopic.php?f=264&t=64128

cheat keys ^^

there is one to view all and remove the fog of war, use it, find ship or see if there's one left, if there isn't, then it's a bug, just upload save if your having a problem.

good luck

Ok, it was indeed a very well hidden ship in a Lagoon. Sneaky bastard.

You were of great help today, thank you very much ! I was starting to lose my few remaining hair after hours searching for it...

been there and now are totally bold anyway :twisted: :roll: :wink:

while some call it cheating, i think you would have found it anyway with a few more searches, and as you bought it, you and i can play it how you like anyway, i only use keys if i have done it that many times i'm really desperate anyway, good luck on the next one and happy gaming...

I shaved my head during a very hot summer in Brazil in 1992, never looked back...

I can't seem to complete this objective either. I have destroyed all of the US ships, including the supply ship and unmanned destroyer is the lagoon in the far south. I have not destroyed any US submarines...are there some sneaky subs hiding that I need to locate and destroy? I used the cheat code to reveal all units and there were no visible units...

Any help?

I finally achieved this objective....two things were different this time from previous attempts:

1) I accomplished the objective on Turn 9. In previous attempts, I destroyed the fleet on Turn 10. Since the objective states to "destroy the US fleet in 10 turns", I assumed that I had the full 10 turns to accomplish this objective.

2) I did not use my German "Wolfpack" subs to destroy any US ships. I only used IJN ships to finish off US ships.

3) I did not destroy the US supply ship in the south lagoon.

I'm not sure which issue above is causing the bug, but I thought I would provide my feedback for everyone's awareness.
