well im pasting it for shadow
he also says its fine
so not really "against the idea of the game"
if thats the opinion he holds to this day
which is what im asking with this post

its awful when you need to reach across your whole body to flip a few switches. you dont understand why thats the case because you havent played the game

i would either take that loss, or setup my environment so the stick doesnt get in the way

1000 replies wtf happened here

This is fair. I don't really have much to say about this, but at the end of the day it's up to baha to decide if that's something he wants to eventually implement

it's not ingame because after HOTAS flight controls get added, then hotas beggars will be asking for wholesale hotas functionality with VTOL, which would require major effort to port properly

your are almost certainly an exception then here. Most players who are biased to hotas would try this out and find it awful

I'm just going to start deleting people repeating "go play the game", it's already been said a hundred times

thats what im asking, i would prefer the comments locked for now, since i've heard pretty much all the viewpoints on it.
i want to rephrase the original post, since the character limit and all

I mean he obviously has a good reason he hasn't done it yet, and that post only acknowledges the balance/game focus reasons behind it. Not if it would actually make the game better
buoyant basalt
i mean, i would if i could.

locking the comments?
aren't they for us to discuss and debate the suggestion?
buoyant basalt
there isnt much to be gained here anymore
soft lark
I agree. Delete this
hard hedge
I'll be honest with you I don't think there's anything you guys can say that hasn't already been said
hard hedge
An argument does not mean going in circles with the same five talking points
If you have nothing new to add, then you don't have to add anything
buoyant basalt
thats what i wanted for this to be
but people keep coming in here
dropping the same takes over and over
and i have to answer every single one individually

thank you. i understand the point, and dont disagree.
rustic delta
and i have to answer every single one individually
I would take the big points people are making and write your arguments in the top level post
soft lark
That being said, should I ping Sypwn?
rustic delta
then baha/others can evaluate from there
static bridge
i don't believe that hotas would be a nice addition, or something easily implemented
if anything, i would rather baha's time and resources go to other things
hotas maybe farther along the line
buoyant basalt

im going to.
i wish i could write a longer post to include everything, i tend to be quite verbose.
too verbose
hard hedge
I won't lock the request unless things get uncontrollably heated since it isn't fair for other people to not be able to comment on an active, public request. That said, please don't pop in to say the same things repeatedly since that doesn't advance the discussion at all
buoyant basalt
things will calmdown now i think
i will go to bed
well actually i gotta rewrite the post first
hard hedge
If you want to rescind it (close and lock) and make a new one with an updated top-level message, we can do that
buoyant basalt
but then i will not comment unless its the dev himself with a response.

can we lock this and i make a new one, i wanna look back so i dont forget any posts
soft lark
I wish you luck. I don't think I've seen Baha directly comment on other requests
buoyant basalt
i can make it tomorrow, and try out the game for the 2 hours.
soft lark
Not being disrespectful, I've just been here long enough to know that is a fact
buoyant basalt
I wish you luck. I don't think I've seen Baha directly comment on other requests
it might be egotistical to think, but i'd like to make the hotas argument post to end all hotas argument posts
atleast attempt to cover every angle
placid lagoon
I wish you luck. I don't think I've seen Baha directly comment on other requests
I've only seen him comment on requests that he's considering on adding or ones that are in active development

there's only so much of vtol you can see by watching things

Not being disrespectful, I've just been here long enough to know that is a fact
you guys have been pretty disrespectful already :( it wouldnt make much of a difference to stop now

i get it to an extent

if anyone else has something to add say it now, otherwise I'll close this thread

id argue that this should be locked and his new message should be in one of the old hotas threads
a new one is redundant
soft lark
And I know this is old news, but really man. I don't think he's gonna focus on HOTAS support, even if he made a comment saying it's plausible. This is because it's exactly that -- plausible. There have been other HOTAS-related requests that have been ignored and always have been pointed to the FAQ
Feel free to request it again, but I'm just saying to not get your hopes up
Anyway

the other ones are all closed and locked, plus spookki is advocating for a hybrid version which I don't think has been addressed in the older ones
so for the sake of making it smoother I'll allow it
anyway, closing and locking this as per OP's request
buoyant basalt
to be fair, i started off asking for binding options, it didnt end up being a good idea, since apparently the binds that exist are a part of the pvp balance?
so it wasnt exactly the same, but trying to accomplish the same goal.
i also wanted to present my argument properly as to why the faq answer wasnt satisfactory to me
i wish i could fit all i think into the character limit.
static bridge
im not a big PVP person, but my guess is that with hotas you can get so many more actions at your fingertips
buoyant basalt
this was the best way i could figure out how, though.
static bridge
putting some people at a big advantage, and others at a disadvantage
buoyant basalt
that was the argument yes.

anyway, closing and locking this as per OP's request

i would counter with letting other ppl rebind as well could balance it out, but hardware being an advantage like that, is probably too big of a change
but thats
an ancient argument by now
we have come a long way since.
