Hi there,
today i bought myself a thrustmaster t16k and wanted to play STO with it. unfortunately it is nearly unplayable for various reasons:
- lack of joystick support: because STO seems not to support joysticks of any kind i had to reroute keys to its axis. as a result the ship is acting like playing it via keyboard, i.e. you can't steer to the left or the right just a bit (like you can with the mouse). therefore you get no real "feeling" for your ship.
- the camera: for using a joystick efficent there need to be a cameraoption that binds the camera behind your ship, so that you can see where your ship is pointed at the whole time.
as a result of theese 2 things i ended up oversteering my raptor over and over (yes, i'm too stupid, i know that allready). i decided to not test this with a bop, simply because i feared to end up moving in circles

now my question is: does anybody know if and when usable joysticksupport is planned for STO?
