Please refer to either the MANUAL or the ingame OPTIONS MENU if you have any more of these questions!

Control + V. Actually, I only fly in cockpit mode now. Feels more real, instead of water skiing behind your ship!

actually, 3rd person is better because you see more things around you and when you have a fully equipped ship and you fire your weps in cockpit, you cant really see what you shoot at.

Not to mention the fact that enemy fire splashing against your shields almost completely blinds you. Cockpit view is really a gimmick rather than a useful tool.

Telling him what the key for cockpit view was would not have been a spoiler as anyone who owns a manual can find it in there.

Here hold my pint while I steer the ship. Of course I'm kidding you stupid bloak, you think I'd trust you with the beer?

It's not the flash of your shield that makes cockpit view bad. It's your own weapons firing away that makes it really hard to see.

My problem with the cockpit is that I find it too underdeveloped in terms of interfaces and such. I think it would look cooler if it had a sort of upgraded version of the Starlancer cockpits (different styles for different ships of course =))

well. I didnt mean to be a n00b crusher, but for any things that you dont know how to fire, you can just press F1 during the game and go under controls. The keys are listed there. BTW, is this a spoiler? Is it is, delete it.

Cockpits in Freelancer really need better visuals. Look at the Border World fighters, their cockpits look primitive.
