Does anybody at CIG actually use HOTAS or dual sticks?

Yes. Mostly it's QA. They clutter the desks. That's really what it is. It's just desk clutter.

Some of the systems designers also do.

A lot of QA, though. Absolutely. And I hope you guys noticed that the hardware IDs got fixed up. This was way back to my old... I quietly chased that one down.

Yes, the HOTASes are now linked to the hardware ID and not the Windows ID.

I remember that coming up and I chased that down a little bit because I felt bad because I can't have a non-answer to it.

Yeah, that's one of those neat instances of a direct correlation between RTV and actually affecting the development process.

Yeah, I keep teasing QA a little bit about me finding bugs on Reddit before I see them internally. And usually they exist. It's just listed as something else or whatever.
