Fatal Error

[Equilibrium]

Could you please fix your ♥♥♥♥ing Fatal Errors? Currently playing through the rather really good campaign on Heroic Difficulty with Ironman turned on for the extra challange but every single time this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game decides to "Fatal Error" the mission counts as a loss and I'm punished becuase your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ product inst working. I'm done beta testing your game this is now a full release yet the crashes have not stoped ever since the very start of the Beta.

tl;dr: Fix your game. I'm salty.

I love the game, hate picking up a loss from Fatal Error. If it just punted me out and reset my ships I'd be less upset. As it is, my ships are either damaged, destroyed, or lost in the warp, why? No reason to leave my fleet in ruins because the game crashes so much, it's so unfair.

Yeah, the crashes really make ironman campaigns pretty much unplayable. I just gave up on mine when a crash screwed me out of destroying a nemesis ship and protecting a space station.

PS: If anyone knows of a way to edit the save game and give yourself another deployment it'd provide a workaround for these campaign crashes.
