Got killed and when I respawned, the screen was basically black and white. Everything was frozen, though I could shoot, but not move. None of the other players saw me and thought I left!!!!

When the sequence ended, and the the next level started, I respawned again, and everything was back to normal....had some pissed off players!!!

Not a PC issue was getting over 30FPS @ max video settings, Internet connection good too.

    Were you playing against the Borg? Your screen does funky black and white things when you get assimilated. You also lose control of your character.

    That's the only thing I can think of that causes that. :confused:

    No. Pretty sure there are no Borg in this event.

    I have not had the problem myself but have witnessed it happen to others three playthroughs in a row now.

    Actually, some people have reported Borg in Starbase Incursion.

    The only time I have ever personally experienced a black and white effect is when I got assimilated doing a Foundry. That's why I asked.

    That's a funny thread actualy. I'm not doubting what you say, it's just that outside of that thread's OP, no other post confirms BORG for this event. I have played it soooo meny times and have not seen them yet. Weird.:)

    Back on topic though, it just happened to me personaly with the enemy being Gorn. Further I am certain I witnessed it happen to another player VS Klingons, therefore the issue does not appear to be species specific.

    I hope they fix it with the update. I had 4 people put me on their ignore list and talk smack, because they thought I was not participating on purpose.....

    I can confirm that there are Borg in this event. It only happened once and on the KDF side. I have read that, depending on the starbases level, diff types of enemy would spawn. So if Borg were to spawn, it must be a higher level base.

    Also the level of the base for the mission is randomly chosen.

    So the game picks one of the 5 team members base.:D
