So, this is a Galactic Starfighter(GSF) match from the game Star Wars: The Old Republic(SWTOR). I've posted about both of those before, with the game SWTOR being how I learned about FIMFiction in the first place and came to be an author on this site. Without this game, I wouldn't have found FIMFiction.

Anyway, the video is me flying the Warcarrier bomber. I'm planning on doing a longer blog about them and incorporating more space combat goodness into at least one more of my stories, probably a few. The REASON I've uploaded this video is because the developers of SWTOR forgot which way the damn bomber is supposed to be flying, because in the cutscenes for the Onslaught expansion, the Warcarriers are flying BACKWARDS.

Honestly, it's not really a big deal, but it is a game people play for and the developers have made a commitment to delivering the best experience they possibly can. So I took it on myself to upload a reference for them, demonstrating some of this ship's flight capabilities. It would be just like SWTOR's devs and the current LucasFilm and even Disney to canonize their own mistakes rather than admitting they messed up, and if they state that the Warcarrier can fly backwards while traveling at attack speed and giving the pilot know visible line of sight unless it has some kind of camera fixture on the outside, then at least I uploaded this as a statement for how it can be flown in a traditional sense.

You're welcome, BioWare, LucasFilm and Disney.
