    • No, it's not a bug.

      The designers thought you wouldn't destroy the Alien fighters in the mission, so they
      had them show up everywhere.

      So it is a returning përs. In my opinion, it adds some character to the game.

      You don't have to do this! Life is too precious! Good, good, slowly, everything will be OK. Now, put the trout down...

    • Exactly its kind of fun to see a little red thing jump into a system and destroy a fed cruiser but you mingt want to watch out your self, its status is bully!

      if it dosent doesn't
      squiel its not worth
      killing

    • I hate them. I never quite found out how to beat them until I ended up getting
      banned from playing it on the Mac because it apparently messed the computer up.

      Now I know to use a tractor beam!

    • Hmmm...I've never seen Alien Fighters proceeding the Alien mission strings. But it does sound as if the Aliens are trying to get their revenge on the player. 🙂

    • i mainly see them in pirate systems. the tractor beam is probably the best way to destroy them.

      I haven't checked, but instinct tells me they only appear in uninhabited systems.

    • No, I saw one in Satori once, which is definately inhabited.

      Anyway, the best way to kill them is to tractor them and use Proton Bolts. Be sure NEVER to let go on the tractor beam, becasue then they will fly away and recharge up to 100% before you can even catch up with them.

    • They appear in systems that ARE colonized, such as Satori and Turin.

      We'll miss you/are missing you!
      sniff sniff

    • well, it is fun to blow them up though. 🙂

      ------------------

    • You're all wrong they show up everywhere!:0

      ------------------
      They'll try to kill 'em all with the FORKLIFT!

    • I destroyed the alien fighter which jumped into the Tiber system with ease... then again I did have my 6 escorts (1 frigate, 5 kestrels) fighting alongside me, and I did have the neutronic weapons from Clavius and Beyond, so that made it a bit easier... great fun.

      ------------------
      I choose to believe that the glass is half empty.

    • I wish there was more missons with the aliens. Its fun to kil them. HA HA HA HA 🙂
