    i always get good battles. They look better in first person mode though. Is it possible to view them that way? Makes the person who watches he vid feel like they are controlling my ship.

    Do you mean make it so the camera is on the ship instead of floating above the ship?
    Or making it so other players can see when you move controls and turn the camera?

    IIRC, Miika said it'd double the data traffic on the servers. That's too much just for replays :)

    Listen I don’t have a degree in coding or any desire to get one, no offense devs, but would it be easy to just copy the same system except change the layout a little bit to make it look like a real battle? I don’t mind if target lock isn’t there. And I don’t mind if we see everyone like we do on a regular replay.

    I think replays should include some representation of shot leading. That’s one of the things people always enjoy watching, and replays never do it justice.

    Yeah just something more. I wanna feel like the battle again. Maybe clear out the information at the bottom of the screen like what guild you’re in, your name and you’re infamy
