One thing that I really dislike about SEIV

The feature that I HATE most, at least in the demo, is the group movement in combat. I curse it at least 10 times a day! It has a nasty tendency for messing up your battle plan big time when you forget to clear group assignments AND move the group leader. I admit that this function is pretty useful when there are a lot of ships to move, all I'm asking for is, there should be a dialog box that askes me if I want to move the whole fleet when I move the group leader. In the heat of battle it is too easy to forget simple things like this.

I hate scrolling down the same list over and over and over.

I don't hate anything about the game, I love it. There are things I would like to see changed / added but that's what this forum is for.

I hate how SE4 consumes my time and destroys my social life. My boss hates it because he thinks I have some medical problem that leaves me unable to sleep enough. Is a patch coming out for the social life bug?

Everyone has at least one thing that just bugs them about the game. Some its an AI issue, others graphics; etc, but for me it's the GRID.

I'm not quite sure I understand what your complaint is; you do know that you can turn off the grid display in Empire Options? Or are you talking about something else entirely?

I hate after a while of playing in the combat screen, the mouse will F-up and be offset about one game square to the left. This then carries back over to the game interface.
Only way to fix it is to reboot it.
Don't know if it's a game bug, or a personal problem.
I'd rather see a real galaxy too honestly.
Also, allow ships to be larger then 1 square.
I hate trying to make escorts look like fleas.
