This is really important to get a first person impression and with today's technic this is already very realistic looking.

The problem is that the body of the pilot would obscure some instruments. (Just like the Joystick in some planes obscures the instrument now - only it would be worse) Then we'ld need a set of command to move the body of the pilot out of the way. 6DOF would only work to a certain point. The last thing in combat I want to be doing is moving my head to unnatural positions to see some guage!
