I dont know about anyone else but i am getting RSI on my elbow having to mash my spacebar while positioning my hand over most of the keyboard for different buttons. controller support for ship movement and firing weapons would be great. Keep the other keyboard shortcuts of course but a controller for space would be feasable im sure. X-wing alliance is a great example of this, controller and keyboard commands work exceptionally well.

But point of my post is, has there been any news of it? Is it likely to happen?

    I play this game using a XBOX 360 controller right now there is a thread about it on these forums, also it saves alot of damage on your thumbs that's for sure.

    How do you rekey the camera? I cant figure out how to key rmb + movement :p
    Cause otherwise you end up looking at the ship while it rotates and thats annoying
