Seamless Flight Expectations

For everyone really upset by the lack of manual landings in SF, I do want to remind you that manual space flight as a whole was not 100% expected or confirmed for this game prior to the showcase.

Even other RPG’s like Mass Effect and the Outer Worlds didn’t have it, with the ship serving as a player home/hub. The industry standard for space RPGs wasn’t to have manual space flight.

A month ago people were debating if we would even be able to fly the ship at all, given the Creation Engine, and now people are complaining that space flight isn’t perfect enough in a game that wasn’t required to have it at all.

We do get to dogfight, manually fly to investigate space stations and POIs, and have dialogue ship-to-ship with quests. Obviously it would be great if space flight was the best it ever could be, but let’s also remember that this is a completely new system/feature that we get, not something we were 100% promises or owed from the get go.
