Yes, the INterceptor bug i get sometimes, there is also the bug when you attack a base with a Penetrator or bug when the base completed something or whatever or the bug with GoTo thing, which i used a lot and one or two others. all those bugs cause illegal ops on me.
there is other bugs like when the AI is calling you, shows message that your receiving transmission from lets say Sandiego. i say okay, message pops up again, ok and repeats a few times until it stops and continues with the game and does not go to Diplomacy mode. There is ways to get around them, but usually involves screwing up your faction or give out some bases or disband tons of units or whatever. Can also use the editor, but don't want Cheating on my score either.
I occasionbaly completly reinstall the game from scratch, like uninstall completly and reinstall. That helps prevent bugs, but after awhile, bugs start coming again. Its annoying and they should make another patch to take care of them :P
I hate illegal ops.
Yes, Huge map. I like playing Huge map
don't like smaller map, no fun. Only slows down really later in the game, when factions are bigger and they all have huge armies practicly. The AI is stupid, builds a huge army and only sends occasional transports load of troops, which i usual sink before they get to shore.
AI needs more strategy sense and be able to adapt to situations more better, build different types of units for different circumstances.
I have one situation game i was about to get into orbital war with different factions, since all the big factions built some space stuff, mainly Sky Hydroponics... but game way too slow by then and also started getting illegal ops. annoying.
hate repeating.
