This could have a big impact on the way current Squads and Clans are able to play and organise.

Yes this does stink! I asked about this hat switch like 3 times in 3 different threads. No answers until right after I ordered my stick! ha ha ha....

I guess for now I'll just deal with it. But for me I really like the HOTAS setup better than the single stick.

it is pretty annoying. Isn't this something that could be fixed with a patch?

Yes,

Especially as I bought the stick as recommended by Anton himself and I am sure many, many others have done the same!!

well, then more than likely this is at the top of their to-do list. shouldnt be much of a problem for long.

Doesn't the hat switch functionality apply to the stick, not the game? I wouldn't think this is something that could be fixed by Anton and company, but I could be wrong.

Depends on whether the hatstick is an analogue stick or not. Don't know what the Thrustmaster has.

It's an eight way switch.

It isn't analog... only 8 way (based on what I've read).

edit: too late.
