Default Newbie questions... I swear I searched first :)

Well, while I wait for SE:V I decided to show my support and buy Starfury. The demo was pretty slick, all things concidered. I knew I had a decent game on my hands when I thought it was around 10pm and looked up to 11:30pm.....

I do have some questions, I should probabaly wait for the full Version to arrive, but I'm impatient

The action seems a bit fast. Is there a way to slow it down? My destroyer handles more like a fighter and I like to slow down the action (ala Star Fleet Battles) and do a bit of thinking.

So far I've only had a ship with forward firing weapons, but how would I know when the other ship was off my left side anyway? The only view that seems to work is forward facing. Again, ala SFB, can I lock the camera on my target so I know when he is in which arc? I see how to manually (F1, etc) change views, but in the heat of these way to fast battles, I can't keep switching views to find him...

Thanks.
