I was just thinking that. I dunno what it is about SW games and nerfing cruiser sizes but I swear every single one does it. The new BF2 is horrible in this regard, it is blatantly obvious in space battles that a single tie fighter is damn near taller than the hangar well is deep. Weirdly tho the scale when you interact with them during ground battles feels mostly correct, though still smaller than they should be, so obviously they knew what they SHOULD be doing. There's a campaign mission that takes place on the exterior of the SD and the scale is damn near perfect. One day I will play a SW game that lets me truly appreciate the true scale of an SD :(

Can you play it in VR even if you bought it via the EA app? Or does it have to be steam?

@@buzzfunk I believe it's natively supported in the game, I did buy it via Steam but I believe it's the game engine that enables a VR support - I'll play it in the next day or so and respond again when I've had a chance to try to check that

I fear they completely missed their built in fan base with it. They tried to build a hero arc with the setting and sensibilities of the one trilogy everyone dislikes. A large part of the appeal of the x wing trilogy was experiencing the pilot life of a random dude working his way through the conflict, slowly becoming an ace as the campaigns roll. But for the most part you got to live the world from the ground level, experiencing being a small cog on the greater machine of an army. This game, as spectacular as it is, misses the mark on that completely. Such incredible wasted potential.

​@@javkiller What do you mean the one trilogy everyone dislikes? This is set closest to the original trilogy, it's still the Galactic Civil War before the battle of Jakku.

Not really. It was a watered down mediocre version of the rogue squadron games.

In VR it’s absolutely breathtaking

I think it was more the lack of replayability. The main multiplayer mode was pretty awful. The single-player was great though.

You can remap the controls though. At least I was able to on PS4

i remapped both the ps4 and pc versions. So you should be able to do the same.

@@XJNautilusEX ! thanks for the heads up. You could not change either pitch and yaw or roll. It might be the roll. It's been a long time since I played. I'll give it a shot again!

George Lucas and the other Star Wars filmmakers added sound to make space travel and space battles more exciting for the audience. Telling an engaging story and providing a thrilling experience was more important to them than being scientifically accurate.

Are you serious...?

@@ZA-7 ​ @ZA-7 Of course I am, or at least that's what I personally know but I am confident that this is the reason

@@Fuskendov I'm not replying to you buddy, but the one who asked...

@@ZA-7 Aight my bad dude calm down just trying to help.

Yes you need a VR headset

@@Jay_Reacts_REAL There actually is baked into the game mechanics, but it's not explicitly explained. All the cannons have some degree of a guided, gimballed cone which enlarges the allowable aiming error and gives the impression of big hitboxes. Guided cannons have large allowable error but do less damage, standard cannons in the middle, burst cannons have very little allowable error but do more damage.

They cant stand a simple game like this, like everything they touch has to be a borefest of reading a manual for a month just to even know how to start the engines of a virtual plane.

I played X-wing so much it was like muscle memory - even coming back to it on Steam after years away didn't take long to get back into it.

@@No1sonuk can't remember exactly but there's something about either controls or physics that bugged the shit out of me.

Slowing makes you an easier target.

Lol, you can stop the ship from even moving in this game, anyway this is an arcade shooter not a fucking simulator dude

This is a differenc gameplay. However check Elite : Dangerous for realistic simulation of physics in space
