I didn't say it was a awful combat scheme... it could work... but it will never be as good as a standard one. And its selling out to attempt to get better sales from the mass-market for a game in a admittedly niche genre -- space flightsims. I never consider that good... sure it could help sales for a title that could have ended up super hardcore like X or Battlecruiser... but its not a good thing for the genre. The last thing I'd want is for this to catch on and real space sims go even closer to extinction than they already are...
