TrackIR support?
If SQUADRONS wants to move away from arcade push button Gamepad flying, it NEEDS to offer Flight stick/HOTAS support and TrackIR/VR support. Not to mention the shown micro management, we all loved i...
Or you can use VR like the game was desinged around.thats always an option too.
@CA1-PAINLESSThe fact is trackir is significantly more accessible than vr. I got my head tracking equipment for ~$100 cdn including shipping and probably could have got that all the way down $60-70 if I really wanted to. If I wanted to get vr right now I would have to upgrade my gpu and get a vr headset (plus some other upgrades like a psu), if I went cheap that would probably cost around $1000, that's at least x10 the price. Supporting trackir simply means a key aspect of the game will be accessible to much more people.
Not to mention, TrackIR has almost no hit on frame rate, unlike VR.
And right away, a questions for the developers:
Why is Track IR supported in Elite Dangerous ?
Why is Track IR supported in Star Citizien ?
Why is Track IR supported in X-4 Foundations ?
Why is Track IR supported in Star Wars Allians (albeit simplistic) ?
Why is Track IR supported in Infinity Battlespace?
Why, even in many indie projects created by 2-3 people on their knees, there is support for Track IR, but in this "undersimulator", from the richest publisher, in which an order of magnitude more money has been invested, dozens of times more money is not there?
So I understand how developers relate to their community.
They analyzed it and thinks 99% of potential hardcore players who play the game with only cockpit view have VR? I will reveal the secret, but there are several times more FreeTrack and Track IR owners than VR owners.
And how do they fly now? Control the view with the mouse? Well, f*** it.
For those who did not understand my claims - imagine that the DooM developers would release the next game without the ability to control the mouse - keyboard only. Would you play it?
This is what the Squadrons devs have done from the perspective of the guys who fly in space / air sims!
Therefore, I will not fly this spoilage, of course. I don't even want to test this crap that EA s_H_it itself. (Although, of course, the noobs ande mousejerkoffers will be happy. you could spit in theirs eyes and they'd call it God's dew.)
1 out of 10.
Buy Elite Dungerous or Star Wars Alliance instead this reject. There, the developers thought with their heads and not with their a_s_ses.
Good luck.
