The flight model and space combat in NMS are still god awful. As Freespace 2 enjoyer I just can't force myself to play it. I would take at least level of 88 Flak (freelancer mode) but not this.

You'd still want angled surfaces to present to enemy weapons. Could also give better clearance for turrets.
