I was Vasari and once my ships entered a battle they were all frozen. No it was not stun so don't even suggest it. The "lines" show up that designate jump coodinates, but the ships themselves are all frozen. After a few seconds they forget their orders and the jump "lines" disappear, replaced by the red "lines" that designate they are attacking an enemy ship.
Also I have to hit enter tab every single time I want to send messages to my ally. Did developers test this thing at all? I'm so pissed my ships don't even listen to orders right now I'm going to shelve this game until I get control of my ships. This is retarded. I don't appreciate getting my a$s handed to me in multiplayer because my entire fleet is frozen. Is this a f@cking joke or what?
