Hello everyone, brand new commander here. I have just bought and installed the game yesterday and it is really a pleasure and an eye-candy on my 4K monitor. Finished the first training and the first mission in Dromi.

I am playing with mouse and keyboard for now. But cannot exclude buying a flight controller for this and other games in the near future.

Please advise in general on anything that may be useful to a newbie, but here are a few questions:

  • How much of a campaign is there? I heard the real pleasure is in getting lost, but it would still be interesting to see if any story is there.
  • How much of a multiplayer experience is (left) in there? I could see names that sounded “human-given” in the Ext.Comm. screen but didn’t really understand.
  • Am I ruining my experience significantly by playing without a flight stick? I don’t think I will buy a huge HOTAS set, but if I can get an extremely good experience by buying something chill like the Logitech Extreme 3D, please tell me.

    I put it on the hat on the throttle.

    The ergo and mapping is fine. It’s the build quality that leaves a bit to be desired IMO.
