Do you want manual control over your spaceship in EVE so that you no longer need to point and click in space to maneuver your ship? Here are good news! We are releasing beta opt-in manual keyboard control (WASD style) with Rhea on December 9th.
Read all the details in CCP Nullarbor exciting new dev blog Quick, give me manual control!
We are very much looking forward to all your feedback!

Having tried this already, it's super fun to use. Seriously, go on Sisi when it's deployed and try it out!

However, you must understand what you have unleashed. The inch-mile scenario here is basically guaranteed! I hope you're prepared to weather the inundation of requests for analog joystick support.
(i'd buy one for eve)
Joystick support is not a big leap, we will have a look into this if the testing goes well.

Tippia wrote:How do you handle the precision of this and any client-server mismatches?
After all, we're still looking at a 1Hz simulation, and I'd imagine that the client will end up showing movements that aren't actually happening in the server simulation between those ticks (at least not in any way that makes the slightest bit of difference to the world).
There is some blending going on, but nothing you should notice, EVE still ticks at 1Hz but the controls feel responsive and actually a bit more like flying in space than they currently do.
Proof is in the pudding though, try it out tomorrow and let me know.

Captain StringfellowHawk wrote:besides WASD for moving around.. What will be throttle control... It will be wierd as hell having to click little +/- on the UI with the mouse... Is their a way to incorporate some keys for the speed attribute? I know the game shows +/- for accel /deccel but I have never actually had it do anything ingame other then flash "Please wait" on my screen. That will be a big thing where it concerns ceptor pilots etc.
I have fixed this up too so it actually accelerates your ship, even from completely stopped.

Key Bindings can be changed to whatever you find most convenient. It's up to you how you bind they keys.

No up means actually upwards relative to the solarsystem not based on the roll of your ship. In practice it works out a lot easier to control but you won't be flying your ship upside down.
