Escape from Hoth will tell you if the transports get away, or are destroyed

I don't think so. They follow the process of the game, with updates like 'Weapons cache destroyed (4 of 9)' or 'The infidels have learned the location of a weapons cache! Protect it at all costs!'. Don't know if that means anything, though.

In-game objective messages?

In Project Reality's Insurgency mode, the objective is to destroy a number of weapons caches. The thing is, there's never anyone asking what the objectives are because they're regularly shown by the game engine in the top-left corner, in big letters. It reads something like:

The Insurgency has hidden 10 weapons caches in the area.
Search the map for clues and destroy at least 9 of them!

This may not be possible for FS as it's not based on BF2, but if messages like this could be added, it'd be really great. Simple, short messages that tell you what the objectives are.
