I use mouselook :P

although for a time when the IBG was so awesome and light i turned mouselook off to spin it faster. (mouselook has a slower spin speed)

Keyboard only FTW!

That said, I was forced to switch to mouse when I realized my new laptop couldn't register more than 2 simultaneous keypresses. :-( But back in the day when I actually had some skill, I was using keyboard only.

I use a mouse and find mouselook to be very irritating to use.. Only ever turn it on in Capship turrets and when I want to get a better look at someone chasing me.

I use both. I find mouselook to be more valuable while in a larger ship, so you can look around to see where your opponents are.

In fact, I use my joystick along with mouselook and it seems to be OK. The mouse controls where the nose points, and the stick controls the rolling strafing, and speed.

But, in a light ship I think mouselook OFF might be best, that way you get used to the capabilities of your ship, and how fast you can turn.

Keyboard and mouse, with mainly mouse-look, but sometimes with it turned off.

Keyboard and trackpad, or keyboard and Logitech G7. No. Fucking. Mouse-look.

mouselook. Both with energy and with rail-flare combo.

I'm not sure. I play solely by sense of smell.

Keyboard only.

Also, I could make up whatever shit I wanted to about what Icarus used too, but it wouldn't matter because like Eldrad and Shape, not only was he never as good as his reputation's been inflated to, he doesn't play anymore and doesn't count for shit.
