Enemy carrier respawn in campaign mode?

Recommended Posts

Loving the trip down memory lane with CC. The original was one of my absolute favourite games of all time.

I've been playing along the campaign as a sort of get-accustomed/tutorial sort of thing (which I suppose that is its purpose). Shortly after liberating an island were the rest of the map is unlocked I had an encounter with the enemy carrier while I was en route to another island. In the, rather frantic and unexpected, battle that ensued I managed to destroy them (I think... they weren't there after lots of boom happening, but it's not like there was debris left) by blocking off their path with my carrier while exchanging broadsides, disabling their engines with deployed Walruses and then finishing them off with a bombing run from a couple of Mantas. I'm not sure if this was supposed to happen as I had just been issued a mission to go find some torpedo without which it would, supposedly, be impossible to destroy them. Then I got some weird cut-scene with further dialog that didn't quite make much sense and was dumped back to the game. The island I encountered them near is permanently flashing red while there are, obviously, no enemy units to be seen. Will the enemy carrier respawn or did I just break the campaign/story and should just load a previous savegame if I want to see how the storyline is supposed to go?

Sounds like about my experience at some point in the campaign. :)

Unless something else broke in your game the enemy carrier will respawn every time you destroy it.

Yup. I just encountered it again, and sunk it again. This time I witnessed, the somewhat lackluster considering it's the main adversary, pyrotechnics of its demise.

If it was any storyline that made sense and was engaging I'd be wondering why do we have to bother with finding the torpedoes.

This happend also to me: I managed to "destroy" the enemy carryer (with tomahawks and many losses).

But the video-message afterwards from the big and nasty enemy says in sense that this is not all and we will met again. So I think that we destroyed the enemy carrier not really. He "escaped" maybe or something. Yes in my game the carrier also seems to be destroyed - but he disappeared just. There was no sink-animation. Because the enemy carrier is stronger and faster then ours.

Therefore I think the storyline is to find the torpedoes and then finish him completely and we managed just to beat him back "a little bit"...
