Looks like I know what I'm getting myself with this paycheck!
How are the mouse + keyboard controls? I've had trouble "flying" with games like Battlefield, Arma 2, or Ace Combat. I did fine with Freelancer.
PracticalTechnicality:
They are functional, but a cheap joystick will usually prove to be the superior choice for 'twitch' flying. For general trucking it should suffice. I run an ancient (2004) Saitek Cyborg that retails at about £14 on eBay these days. Solid reversible stick and there really is no need for a sophisticated and expensive HOTAS set up unless you're a total immersion junkie.
Mitara Newelle:
I tried using key+mouse and failed pretty badly and picked up a joystick. I found it MUCH easier to fly that way.

--- Quote from: PracticalTechnicality on 14 Aug 2014, 05:49 ---The Lakon range of industrial vessels have a beaten up feel to them, but most of the combat craft are high performance military/ex-military craft (single seater fighters being most common).
The 'Snake' named ships have a pretty lived in feel (paint chipped interiors and wear), while the Eagle and Zorgon Petersson Hauler are clean and off-the-production-line.

Are 'Snake' line of ships combat ships or freighters?
