I played SE V hundreds of times. I have thousands of hours of play time on the game. Albeit none of my games lasted longer than 150 turns before crashing or locking up.

Same here. Every time a new patch comes out, I play a few games, but they don't last more than around 100 turns or so. I like to play 255-system galaxy with 20 players, and SEV still has problems with that. Until the most recent patch, the processing turns got too slow at around turn 80 and I got tired of waiting 20 minutes between turns, so I'd start a new game. The turn processing is faster now with the current patch, so now the slow part is the ship movement at the start of the turn if you've got hundreds of ships. I could live with that, but every game I started with the most recent patch has crashed or locked up before turn 150.

I'm waiting for the next patch and I'm not going to start any new games of SEV until the patch comes out.
