Default Re: Unusual New Propulsion Idea

Are you serious? SEV combat system like Starfury? I have tried Starfury flight in demo (not combat however) and if Starfury combat is anything like flying one ship in it, I watch with amazed disbelief that have they not learned anything from other "real time strategy experiments" like MOO3; Dune, Battle for Emperor; Starcraft, etc. Is it going to be one more clicking feast? Please, please tell me I'm wrong...

With current interface to communicate with computer (keyboard and mouse) there is no good way to create any system to control fleets, squads, individual troops and such in real time. We would need a direct braincable to handle all the thingies with sufficient efficiency.

Therefore: NO real time combat on STRATEGY games.
