This kind of bug is unforgivable. I expect it to be fixed soon.

I mean it would be different if say your wing man was taking a severe beating from teh opposing enemy force and finally was destroyed. But with this darn bug just blowing up ships for no reason at times it is sometimes best to just start over and hope that the bug doesnt resurface in a rematch.

I prefer that explanation to a bug anyway...

...A week after getting the game I was flying high in a Vor'Cha, my first big ship of the game. I was going solo against a planet and doing quite fine if I do say so myself, however, my ship blew up in warp for no obvious reason. Further more I have heard tales from warriors long past of there ships blowing up for no good reason.
This was put down to lag but if its also happening in single player then I hav'nt a clue.
Time to get me a signature -

- Flying a borg fleet in conquest mode (I didn't want to invest additional lifetime hunting this kind of bugs so this
is the only one I'm sure) each time I had 2 wingmen in a planetary assault mission, BOTH blown away if there were more
than 4 enemy ships (not counting platforms) or just the last one if less. What ALWAYS happen is that your wingman
blows when you blow some other enemy (I haven't tested just sitting far away to see what happens).
- Other MORE ANOYING bug is what happens if you issue capture order to some of your wingman... Not only they doesn't
follow your orders at ALL but seems like instead they try to assimilate your comp, causing a mayor failure followed
by a CTD.

I'm surprised it's a mystery guest in SFC3, too. Taldren, can't you come up with original bugs to put in the game?

Hydrans.
Now that they've been assimilated into the rest of the galaxy, those little methane breathing trash can pukes have started crewing ships for all of the races.
It was only a matter of time before the Tal Sh'iar introduced them to ciggarettes.

This is the only one I just can not stand...
Is Taldren aware of this bug? Is a fix in the works for next patch or a future one?
My own ship has blown up on its own as well. However, its very rare.
When my own ship blew up, it was the very beginning of the mission, and the one enemy ship blew up as well.
The only problem with autosave is if you completed the misson and then a ship blows itself up, autosave saves that...
I save after every single mission that nothing buggy happened in now... but it really should not be that way.
VERY ANNOYING BUG!!!
Kind of dissapointed its not in the patch bug fix list, but hopefully they are working on it.
PLEASE!!! Fix it soon... I agree with you completly Brett.

a simple: "yes it will be fixed", OR "no, not yet but soon...."
would be enough to prevent people being upset all the time about this !!!!
for me, the best in this game beside the d3 is a modded and heavily tweaked conquest game, but with your ai fleet mates exploding nearly every second mission it simply S.... !
in my opinion there is a bug in the ship/shuttle automation. -> when a ship has launched shuttles and is beaten, the shuttles are destroyed in the same moment their "mothership" is exploding, regardless their status. That´s EXACTLY what happens to your team mates AND other ships/stations as well: getting destroyed when something explodes.
p.s. this bug is stealing my nerves! so PLEASE Taldren, a simple "yes" or "not yet" would be enough to save my life

Gotta love it...For those that don't know...This bug has been around since SFC1(3+ years)...It will never get solved...It seems to be a flaw in the game engine itself..And this game engine is old...The SFC1 game engine and SFC3 game engine are the SAME thing...Well, not totally exact....Some modifications and improvements have been made since SFC1...But at it's core..The same thing that drives SFC1 ...Drives SFC3....No matter how you look at it
The same bugs that have been around,will stay around and there have been MANY patches to prove this
Some people say recycling is a good thing....When it comes to game engines..Unless its tried and true (i.e Half-Life/Unreal game engines)....It's not
