Sometimes IntelliSense behavior is very annoying. For example, typing in c# editor "Random[SPACE]" resulted "Random3DDataGenerator" in my code when the is no "using System;" in the code. I had to press [CTRL]+[Z] to return back the "Random" word.

In earlier versions of VS there was an option which said after which characters auto-completion is applied, but now it seems there is no such option.

Is there some ways to avoid this annoying behavior?

Just switch off auto completion mode using the settting: Edit->Intellisense->Toggle Completion Mode

You can see more information here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hcw1s69b.aspx

"You can also change to suggestion mode, in which only the text you type is inserted into the code."

Yes, ctrl+alt+space toogles between suggestion mode and standard completion mode. In suggestion mode what you type is part of options you can use.
