I experienced a weird bug in pvp. I don't know how it can be reproduced but it's a really annoying one.
I've been quickly defeated, and soon after I respawn, my tholian recluse carrier became invisible! I took quickly a couple of screenshots :

I tried to use the holoemitter device I had in my inventory to see if it could fix that issue, but the ship quickly disappeard after appearing as a transport. The same problem occured when I shut down the device. I couldn't see my cannons firing, but I assume they were since I could hear the SFX. I could use my powers and pets normally in the meantime. The camera autofocus seemed disabled during this bug.
My ship remained targetable by pets, and the players took some time to target me again, so it is possible that they could target me with the auto target only. I couldn't ask them, they all left the match quickly after that...
When I respawn for the second time, the problem was fixed.

When I respawned my ship was nowhere to be seen, but I could fly and steer and attack as normal. I could not see the visuals or effects of weaponsfire either. One of my fleetmates said I had displayed as dead (not yet respawned) the entire time I was telling them that I could not see my ship, so I assumed the glitch resulted from an incomplete transition from the waiting stage to the active stage. This has only happened once to me.
I snapped this lone screen at the time, for what good it does, just to mark the oddity of having no visible ship. < http://i.imgur.com/IC2bU.jpg >

And yes when you are invisible your opponents also see you invisible, not sure about teammates though.
which is bad, cuz someone that doesn't know this bug will call hax and report you for it
