A friend and I were playing together online and we saved a map and exited. Some other day a different friend and I were having trouble with the mesh files and so we both uninstalled and reinstalled the game and were able to play online. Soon later my other friend had the same trouble and had to reinstall and then we were able to continue our game.
After a while of playing we noticed that everything was sped up big time. We kept losing our ships because it was going so fast that we couldn't retreat in time or anything. We kept trying to hit the "-" key to slow things down, but nothing happened. So we started a new game and the same thing happened even though the game settings were set on normal for everything.
We tried a game with everything set on slow, but the same thing happened. Tried binding the keys to slow the game speed down differently and then using that, but it wouldn't work. I found some other posts with the same problem, but none give any solutions or suggestions.
