To me personally having to click using the mouse is less immersive than having to press a button on say the keyeboard for example, surely pressing a button is more realistic than pointing with a little arrow with a mouse?
Real pilots have to learn where the real switches are thats for sure but I being a virtual pilot (and a real pilot) have to know what buttons to press in this game i.e. what combination of buttons does what and I don't know about you guys but I learn't a long time ago how to press these combinations without even looking at the keyboard since I now instinctively know where they are - isn't that more realistic than pointing with a mouse pointer?
I'd like the procedures to be more complicated as they should be but I can handle the combinations needed, especially using Game pads etc. which you can assign complex key strokes to one button.
If the option was there to use then fair enough but I wouldn't probably use it as IMO it is less realistic than what we have now.
Would be cool maybe if when you moved the mouse, instead of a pointer you saw an arm and hand actually animated moving the switches but if would take even more development for this stuff so I can't see it happening.
