During Alpha I will test each of the methods available to see what is best suited for myself. How about everyone else? What are you thinking of using for Star Citizen.

The simple reality is replication of true flight mechanics is best achieved with a Joystick, top quality one like Cyborg or Saitek if you have it. I am praying anyway. I used joysticks to great success in all of the wing commander and successive series, I hope its as viable.

So i recently purchased he Thrustmaster T160000M to test out the joystick features at alpha. If it works well I'll upgrade to something better if necessary. That is if its superior to the other options.

Now you need a good seat on hydraulics to get even more immersion.

I have a Saitek X52 that I havent been able to use since I bought it because most games mouse > stick I will also have a Oculus rift for sure when the production models hit the market. At that point I will probably never leave my computer and become one with my desk chair
