I can't stand the bull crap stuff that tends to happen in this dynamic campain!! Like when arriving at a nav point in a fighter when there are 3 destroyers you CAN NOT OUT RUN OR AVOID.. Like a small fighter that can not be shaken from your tail even thoug b4 he got there you fired all your missles at them, and last but certainly not least the in effective wingmen, no scrath that and A.I. controled ships on the players side what so ever!!!!![:@] Please patch soon game has so much potentia to be the greatest space sim ever but these things happen far to often even on the easiest of settings

Query: Which physics mode are you using?

In the newtonic physics mode the ship that has the best accelleration outruns the ship with the worst accelleration.
Fighters always have better accel then.
You can switch physics mode when in flight iirc so even if you fly arcade you can just switch to get your self out of trouble.

Do you mean the navpoint is dropping you less than 50km from the target when you use time skip?

I mean both, they both tend to happen and often also, I am experincing a dissapearing carrier on intercept missions?

Ehh, you're the group leader, sort of. Adjust the navpoints! Besides, approaching the second navpoint is generally a bad idea because, as it should be, the command places navpoint at where it EXPECTS enemy ships to be. Consequently, if you use auto (which puts you straight at the waypoint), you should also EXPECT to come immediately into contact with enemy warships. If you don't want that to occur, don't use auto and use time acceleration instead (or go grab something to eat).
I'm also not getting why you call wingmen AI ineffective...Granted, they tend to do their own thing unless constantly reminded to keep in formation, but my wingmen tend to kill more stuff than I do.
