1.1 annoyances.

The Vasari anti fighter thingy, and domination

Okay I can't remember their name but those anti-fighter things the vasari build. Their power is annoying, the click to disable all movement and have there weapon fire gain 25% range.

It is annoying because it can't be turned off without going through each one of them and clicking it again. If you have 10 in a protective fleet it stops you moving your fleet quickly between war fronts. So can we fix that? I move my fleet off and realise ten ships have stayed behind giving my fleet no anti fighter protection at the next planet, which could be three four jumps away.

The same thing is even more annoying if you play advent and use your rapture capital ship to capture one at rank 6, using the domination power. Because they lack the icon to turn it off. So you simply possss a small unusable platoform. it being locked in the limited and pointless stationary mode.

However if you use domination of something like the overseer you get the abilites, like the shiled regeneration etc. So that needs looking at.

Also I find the domination adopts the fleet logistics of the possessing ship. so I don't use fleets, don't like them and the flag ship is never the highest ranking capital. It is always about nineteen ships down an d a random fighter carrier. however id you use domination you find suddently around 1 fleet per ship captures, each one wanting to be a different fleet made up of itself. Seems odd and completely pointless.

Anyone else found those problems? Or is it just me?

Otherwise great game and love the improvements in graphics and the new user blackmarket thing.

YES!  I was going to post about this really soon too. lol

The newly captured ships having auto join fleets on is annoying...

And the Sentinels not being able to turn off their charged missles ability (I think that's what it was) means you get a useless ship.  I haven't tried getting an Assailant to see if it's the same.

I haven't noticed these problems, but I have noticed that the game likes to become rather laggy (not online) after about 5 min. of play even on a low graphics setting. And yes, I exceed recommended system requirements with an AMD 6000+ (Dual Core at 3.0 GHz) 3 gigs of DDR2 RAM and a Nvidia Geforce 8600 GT.

Its odd really and it bugs the crap out of me. Especcially since I do not know how to fix it. Just thought I ought to bring it up.

As long as we're talking annoyances, the stacking bug needs to get fiexed sometime soon.
