Why my ships computer/boff's are so stupid that they can only auto fire one dam turret is beyond me. Your weapons should auto fire. even in many other games the primary attack is auto fired. Hunters, wands, guns of ALL types in EvE, ect.

the way it is now is going to ruin my hand and my G-11 and that is not cool.

Just right click on the skill in the bar and the edge should glow green so you know its on.

STUPID FRACKING "FEATURE"

hitting the space bar to fire phasers has nothing to do with tactics, it has nothing to do with playing smart/making decisions......it's simply a wack-a-mole operation that is going to kill my space bar/thumb. I'd rather be able to focus on adjusting my power settings/heading and determining when/what BO power to be using.

i know already to many of these threads, but APPARENTLY the devs aren't listening.



--I knew it, i'm surrouned by *******s......KEEP FIRING *******s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
