It was just dropped today and I've been testing it for a few hours. I'm curious—am I the only one dealing with those tricky Imperial shuttles on this mission? Or are others thinking about getting it? Feel free to message me if you have any questions. Thanks!
I rarely receive games right after they launch. The developers seem to be taking their time and often charge a full price for beta testing, which appears to be a problematic situation. I expect to try again once it becomes more affordable through Origin Access or EA Play, or when it's on sale. I’m hoping then there will be better joystick support.
I downloaded it on Steam. I’m really enjoying it so far. It feels like the N64 title Star Fox, especially with the flying squadrons and destruction. The visuals are stunning and enhance the experience. A few players have mentioned tricky controls, but using an Xbox controller has been smooth. Flying an X-Wing or Tie Fighter would demand many buttons, adding realism. Most importantly, there are no loot boxes or pay-to-play elements!
It’s generally wise to pause for a week or two before making a decision.
Do you think the limitation to a single point of view is problematic? Many fans suggested alternatives like first and third person views, similar to what you see in Battlfront. It seems the creators prioritized a first-person experience because they believed it offered the deepest immersion.
I aimed for a game offering the highest realism and immersion when piloting an X-Wing, Tie-Fighter, and similar ships. The best way to achieve this is through a first-person viewpoint, matching the perspective of a pilot experiencing those vessels in real time.
