Lets see where to start where to start.
1. This game is not a first person shooter.
2.Crosshairs would probably just complicate this game more.
3.No need for it (if its not broke don't fix it)
4.It would mess up the viewing system IE having to turn your whole ship to see something.

You do realize that 3 updates could take 10 years...
And I second the "denied" movement. Go play the FFOW beta.

I for one dont think its that bad of an idea, however yes it will never happen as there are more important issues.

I understand the inclination to want this, but why is it needed since once you select an enemy you can fire at them from any direction you have weapons pointed, regardless of what direction you are actually looking? Its not so much of a bad idea as an unnessicery one. Perhaps if you could justify why...

This response is for Phellan (self proclaimed ed "pilot") ... Try flying something other than the ed and you'll see that you can not truly fire from every direction effectively. Only works on the ed because it has way too many cannon slots.

what I 'said' is that you can fire from any direction you have weapons. Most ships have at least a few weapons aiming to the sides and reverse. But when Im flying my hc I dont want to have to look behind the ship to aim then end up crashing into a planet. That is what I meant. I use other ships whether you believe me or not but when I do I get ganged up on and icc teamwork isnt legendary so I grab an ed. I lost a ton of HCs, combat dessies, and mds in 6+ on 1 odds and thats partially cuz im not as good at flying them but its not for lack of trying. I'll go 1 on 1 with anyone that wants some in any equal ships but not once have my oponents allowed that so quit your griping.
