i've started getting in to the habit of saying,the force is strong with this one,when i am trying to kill someone who i cant seem to. Now i want to take on the death star lol. i no they had that badge as a joke ages ago,destroyed the death star. but then as were all flying to the hit point,we would all turn our targetting computers off(close our eyes) an try an use the force to blow it up lol.

I always use 3rd person, and adjust the camera angle. Not only is it easier to fly for me that way, but I don't have to deal with some of the annoying flashes associated with some of the weapons, especially mining lasers.

I fight in first person.
I have no problems with situation awareness, through my forward veiw and radar I know where everything is and where it is going.
Don't like 3rd person, seems too clumbsy and not very RP'ish, like to feel like I'm flying as much as I can.
