*points to all those windows on his ship*
Pretty sure that's and indication that there's a crew....
Honestly, what's wrong with having crew?
Would make the game much more fun to actually have to assemble a crew with talents in things like:
Gunnery
Navigation
Engineering
If anyone played the old browser game "Space Pirates" you understand what I'm getting at.
If not.
Basically, SP had crew you could hire that would affect your ship above it's base traits. You also had Morale and if it went to low...ya..they mutiny :P
Also, the whole "pod pilot" thing is really stupid. Look at the ships...you can CLEARLY make out sections that would be the "Bridge". Why have a bridge? It says in the Tutorial that our "outside view" is from chase camera drones...
Hopefully, with this WiS, they'll revamp some of the lore surrounding how we control these massive ships.
Ooooh, ya...I so want to be able to launch boarding parties and boot people out of their ships; provided they lose the Boarding Fight 
BTW: The human brain is simply not capable; nor will it EVER be capable (unless its size grows) to control a ship the size of anything larger than a Frigate. And if you use the "Well we have super computers running all that other stuff". Then my response is:
WHY THE HELL ARE WE EVEN IN THE SHIPS
They are obviously, then, capable of running completely on their own with only us issuing orders for the A.I. to process.
The "i'm the only one on the ship" is one of the major cons this game has for me.
-anyways, that's my take on it. |

even T3 ships? 
Pretty sure those are piloted only by Cappies (yes, I said it!).

are you sure those are windows?
Well, doubt they could be anything else...they emit light so they're not part of the "paint job". If you look at the larger ships...like the Charon the first thing that comes to mind is "windows". |
