So I got 10FPS with my integrated intel HD 4000 chip in my laptop, then proceeded to have the most exciting 6 minutes of my life playing AC until my laptop set fire to the dust inside of it and now my room smells like burning

After a little practice I'm getting better. I'm using a joystick in my left hand and a mouse on the swivel guns with my right hand. Works fairly well except that whenever I touch the joystick it automatically centres the guns.

But my, does this game look gorgeous!

While most people are using the joystick, I've ended up with the Xbox 360 controller. I love the way the buttons are mapped out on it, but I can definitely sense that it'll be difficult to use in high precision combat mostly due to the fact that.. there's just not enough buttons. You can't aim while you're afterburning due to the way the buttons are laid out and there are, of course, other limitations as well.

I've been trying out the KBM as well and boy, controlling fast ships in space sure is difficult.

Using the mouse to move the direction of the ship is incredibly hard and it tends to oversteer and overadjust. while I want slight movements, the ship pitches and rolls a lot more than I actually want it to. I hope there are ways to adjust this b/c it's irritating when trying to aim and the entire ship lurches up when really all I needed were slight adjustments.

I really would like to know if having a joystick makes a huge difference in your ability to fly...

Overall, it's a difficult learning curve that will take some time to get used to. I'm really curious as to how the Constellation will handle seeing as it is a pretty large ship. The Hornet DEFINITELY has a lot of mobility though.

This is so exciting!!!

No multiplayer as of yet.

Still no word on when that is launching and how they will launch it.

Maybe try uninstalling the hangar module and then reinstalling.

Thanks, that helped. Now to wait for the 12 gb patch at ~250 kb/s. Not to worry, just 17 more hours. k:cry:
