I was able to launch the game after reloading drivers, updating all stuff etc.

Then I wanted to change controls - game does not recognize but basic mouse buttons (have logitech proteus core, no one of side buttons is recognizable by game) - I can live with this..

Game stutters horribly sometimes (have SSD and GTX 1080), ok it can happen.

Then I tried to fly and that was the top of my frustration, unbelievable ugly controls of ship. I was not able to kill 3 enemies without getting killed, (using mouse), I tried to remap controls to get better fly controls but no way...

I will try some more controls options (will buy hotas or just joystick to test it), but I believe I will request refund for this... unfinished game.

I've read a few people saying joysticks/HOTAS do not work, just Xbox/game controllers. :(

and Keyboard and Mouse. Honestly, the controls are definitely not something you would want to map to a Joystick or HOTAS. It is not that kind of game.

The flight controls are pretty sluggish. I just don't think they would work well with a stick :/

If you have been playing Elite Dangerous you will find them not good at all.
