Out of Pod Experience

...in case that there is a pilot.

Now seriously, most of the clicking comes because the systems have individual controls and are not linked together; it would be theoretically possible to have a big "start" function and still keep the clicking as a backup.

Standard operation does not necessarily need to share the same interface as emergency operation.

Sounds daft to have a spaceship that you can just push the start button and off you go! It makes more sense that when you get on your ship, the ship's computer (or AI) to begin start up procedures, have it running through diagnostics while the reactor and whatnot are coming online before you can launch. If it is a war vessel you are flying, there would be a constant combat readiness that would allow you to skip certain steps.

I completely understand that there are people out there don't want that DCS A-10 experience in Star Citizen. But to have something as simplistic as "press the big green start button" is just as immersion breaking for me as having a door that never opened is for you.

Modern fighters are inherently unstable. Instability leads to maneuverability. Without computer assistance, controlled level flight would be difficult and inefficient. The pilot basically tells the computer where to maneuver the aircraft and computer moves the control surfaces to the needed positions and compensates for any instabilities. Although this is for atmospheric flight and aerodynamics only, not spaceflight .

Spaceflight is whole different animal. At the very least, if there is true newtonian physics, a "kill rotation" button will be needed. Rotation can get out of hand quickly if you're not careful.

Well, that wholly depends on what you define as immersion in EVE. Because unlike you, I don't feel like a terrible human being like you did after killing those miners (lol!) after I kill someone and unlike you, I don't care about avatar based stuff.

Well, I am currently running a fever and, as you can probably imagine, not feeling great. I would give a **** about what you had to say if you had anything to say in the first place.

I think that would be covered under fly-by-wire which would prevent uncontrolled rotation by correcting when the pilot stops their pitch or roll on the yoke. If it works the same as killing velocity in the demo of the prototype engine there will be a little 'lag' as the fbw puts the thrusters to work to correct orientation.

The physics engine of SC was coded by Roberts himself and it simulates a FBW system which in turns simulates WW2 era dogfighting. The system is continuously firing micro-thrusts to keep the ships straight, but Roberts disabled the visualization of such microthrusts because it was ugly to see the thrusters flickering continuously even when the ship was "stopped".

Anyway, I would expect hardcore private servers enabling the effect back just for the sake of it, along with whatever modifcations are allowed via modding of the engine.

Dogfihgting without gravity nor aerodynamics could be a different beast than actual dogfighting... but most maneuvers still would be appliable, if even modified. With newtonian physics, a immelman could be a deadly maneuver by turning 180º in the up section and then fire thruster to max... enemy overshoots and bye bye.

(Anyway, the dogfighting module is coming soon -actual soon, not CCP's Soon)

I won't play it, because of space dogfighting.

I'm looking for a sci-fi experience, not for a ten year old boy's wet dream.
To each his own.

Heh, post of the year. Something CCP knows all too well.
