Console controls are disappointing. I can get over most of the controls, but there are two things I can't get over. First I have to click in and hold L3 every single Fn time I need to redistribute shield power? Wut? Have you people played your own game? Do you realize how often this happens and how uncomfortable that is? I've played about 6ish hours and my left thumb is downright tired. This wouldn't be too big a deal if maybe we could set it to hotkeys. Maybe I could set the 4 directions in the L1 menu?
Second, targeting is space is ridiculously bad. Pressing R3 (again, using these buttons is annoying) to target could definitely feel smoother. It feels "janky" right now, and is hard to select the target you want when there are many targets. This too wouldn't be so annoying if the game tried a little harder to fire at the target you want to shoot. I'll have my target reticle over the ship I want to fire on. I press R2 and... it shoot off at some target that's not even on my screen. This happens FAR too often.
I've been holding off playing on PC since this was announced. I'm extremely disappointed in it. It did bring me back to the PC version I guess, but I really wanted to play on new servers where everyone is starting over again. It's too bad the devs couldn't figure the controls out.

Y-axis inversion works, I'm using it.
