So, I’m not even out of the tutorial yet (I think…
spoiler
we just blew up a Borg Cube and I need to speak with Janeway on Starbase 1
), and flight during combat feels “wrong” somehow. I’m finding it very hard to maintain any sort of focus on the target.
All of the tutorials/faqs seem to focus on stats and optimization, but nothing about basic flight controls. Something just doesn’t seem to be clicking for me. Maybe it’s just the slow intro ship, or should I not be constantly trying to maintain an orbit around the target?
If it makes any difference, I’m playing as a Starfleet (post tng) officer.
Yeah, I noticed this as well, and that’s when it clicked to just ignore the vertical motion. However, it feels like adding an up/down component helps increase turning velocity. I could be wrong though, and haven’t experimented with it yet.
The keybinds list is great! Is there a difference between having fore/aft phasers set to “1” and “2” versus spacebar for “fire all phasers”?
I think most people just use “fire all” - I can’t think of any significant reasons not to.
