From what I understand, the ground combat seems that it would be completely boxable (Assuming the existence of a follow command). The space combat however, looks like it could potentially be much more difficult. Firing arcs and the directional shielding that the ships have might be difficult to manage. I anticipate that the enemy ships are going to be a lot more mobile during combat than WoW or other MMOs. Selecting ships that have a lot of forward facing weapons and utilizing focus fire might be able to overcome a lot of this, but it might be difficult to properly protect your fleet. Has anyone here had the supreme fortune of getting into the closed beta and able to report on how important rotating your ships during combat is?
