Some quetions off the top of my head.

Originally they stated the Bengal Class Carrier would be able to be controlled. Later they said that smaller capital ships would be able to be controlled but the Bengal Class would not. Can they clarify on how large of a capital ship they plan to allow players to control and how that would work? Would it require 2-5 people on the bridge to effectively control it or would one person be able to control it by themselves.

Elfwyn: Yes. Probably not something as huge as seen in the Squadron 42 demo, but definitely on the order of a destroyer. The higher end ship, the RSI Constellation is a multi-person ship with its own short range fighter.

Probably a destroyer or Corvette - the carrier int he trailer would probably be too unbalancing for the Star Citizen persistent world in a player or group's hands!



They have stated that the want to include all kinds of peripheral support. Does this include TrackIR and will it have free look in FPS mode like in games like ARMAII and WWIIOnline? Or will it be restricted to only the cockpit views?

Speaking of peripheral support. Is there any plans to support things like the Saitek pro flight series. Specifically with output support for the PC Pro Flight Instrument Panel Gages and Radio Panel? What about output to touchscreen monitors for MFDs?
