If missiles are being fired, can we visually see what type, weight and class the missile is?asked by Lightmonk

So definitely, I mean, that's actually already, I'm not sure if in the prototype I was firing all the missiles, but currently in the prototype, in the Hornet, there were three different kinds of missiles. The standard, basically goes back to the Wing Commander days: there was the image recognition missile, a couple of heat-seeking missiles, and there was a dumbfire missile. And they were all visually different. They have different weights, they have different velocities, turn radiuses, and obviously different target acquisition characteristics. So all of that you'll be able to see visually, like when someone deploys their missiles and you see them on the racks, you'll see what kind of missiles they have. So basically in the game, visually, we're very much about what you see is what you get.
