Temporal Reckoning - Crazy Enterprise Bug

msm1977

Lately, when I try to replay the "Temporal Reckoning" mission, there has been some sort of bug preventing me from completing the mission. At the very end, when you're supposed to fly into the last event area to face the I.S.S. Enterprise, it becomes impossible to start the combat. The area does not "trigger" when you fly into it, and the Enterprise starts to fly at the borders of the map at high speed, obviously still moving away from your ship as in the beginning of the mission's act. I'm then forced to abort. Has anyone else seen this happen? Is it the kind of thing that goes away by itself after a server reset or two?

I'm including a link to a picture of the HUD map during the bug.
I.S.S. Enterprise going nuts!

Known problem unfixed as it stands today, been going on now for going into 5 months.

I figured out a way to beat it. You need to be in full screen window, have a browser open, move your ship into its flight path, have all your weapons set to auto fire, alt tab to the browser and the lag will cause your auto fire and the other ships to beat it.

Clearly not the way it was intended to work and likely unobtainable for all but the lucky enough to pull it off successfully. I am happy you figured out a way to do it.

Cryptic Studios should come up with a fix - they fixed New Romulus warehouse mission that was jacked up...I'm sure they will eventually fix this mess too.
