Okay. Here is the list of things that have happened to me. If you find this very common or similiar please help me figure out a solution to my problem.
1. Your in a mission thats simple, and for no reason, everything that isnt your mission just decides to attack all at once.
2. That your going to end up using your starter ship until you rich enough to have a decent ship that doesnt suck right after your starter ship.
3. that when you dodge, weave and slow down and make sudden stops, the enemy can still precisely and exactly target you no matter what.
4. Find yourself attacking something , disabling it and it jumps into hyperdrive anyways. 
5. Shooting and targeting the enemy in First Person Mode and you end up hitting that stupid button that brings up the annoying messege box .
6. Found yourself never going off planet with your starter ship, and for some reason its parked in entha after taking your Yacht there, even though its impossible becuase you cant go through hyperspace with your starter ship anyways.
Recognize these problems?
p.s. 7. things around you start dissapearing, including yourself while in space. blinking in and out.

This expansion really could do with a month or 2 more in BETA. Preferably Open.

WELCOME TO JUMP TO LIGHTSPEED!
These are known issues that as far as we know the Devs are working on as we speak.

The devs tweaked the AI just before beta ended, making NPC ships way too fast forplayer ships to match up. I wonder if that's been fixed in live.

I dont have a fool proof solution but heres what i did to at least buy myself some precious time.
Example: fighting 2 x-wings with a tie fighter.
First bind the key or look for which key it is that targets the last enemy that fired at the player (or something close to that)
Fight one of the 2 X-wing try to tail him meaning he keeps tryin to get in your butt but just cant cause youre doing the butt sniffing around here...youre the man!
The second the second X-wing hits you from behind (usually) hit the target last enemy that fired at player and chase this one now.
It will give you sometime critical seconds and most of the time the edge you need to win that fight since X-wing 1 will need to do a 180 degree to come back at you while his friend is being uterly destroyed by you :
Hope it helps 
(Feedback appreciated on that tactic plz )

Wait till you get to tier 2 and the NPC ships spawn and instantly get missle lock on you and OWN your butt in seconds.
But so I dont sound bitter, we were told this is being looked at and will be fixed for live. So let us fools that have to work today and cant play yet know what happens when you make it to tier 2.

Oh they wont miss you any more with that tactic btw,they will just need about 1-10 seconds to start firing their 100% accurates shot at your butt.

It will not work against a tier 3 ship, trust me. They're too fast and accurate. AI needs to be worked on real bad.
