Hello everybody, i'm new here, started playing some days ago but decided to make an account here now because of a thing that happend yesterday. The thing was that i was flying around Frankfurt when i saw a battle between the Red Hessians and some Rheinland forces i think, and tried not to get involved so i set course to Munich, but just when i reached the jump gate, the red lag icon (i think?) started flashing up in the screen, then it was yellow, then red and stayed that way, while this was happening i couldn't enter the gate. After a moment of waiting, i saw the Red Hessian forces coming to the gate, so i entered cruiser speed and went to a near asteroid field. I was some 10k from the gate, watching the Red Hessians telling someone "invisible" to move out of their way, but without a response, they open fire, and then my fighter suddenly explodes! Somehow my vision was in the asteroid field, but my fighter never moved from the gate. If i was with such a lag that i was unable to "move" and leave the system, how could i watch everybody moving and talking without a problem?
Red Icon problems, hmm... maybe I'm not the only who has that strangeous and magical problem that appears when it wants.
I temporarily resolved executing the game (Freelancer.exe) as administrator and in Compatibility mode with Windows 7 (or XP).
