When you drop in a match, you see a flight stick in your right hand.......
that means it is THE most important interface device for the mechwarrior, yet its treated like its unimportant.
that is wrong, shortsighted, and needs to be fixed!
That means top priority, not when YOU get around to it!

Honestly, there are waaay more pressing matters than this. A metric sh*t-ton of matters.

Having grown up just as the last great hurrah of space combat sims was happening (and still owning a functioning Sidewinder 2), I would have agreed with you at one point.

But honestly, the degree of precision a mouse enables outweighs any advantages a stick offers in this game. If there is a superior control setup, we probably won't know it until our weapons are tracking to our head movement through an Occulus.
