Voted no both cases.

I like the gunboat+ turret steering, and tried the snub turret steering and man, I suck with the snubs but the caps make good use of it.

I got killed by a gunboat few times. So I decided to try out myself. Guess what, I didn't like flying it.

Shall we remove it?

That is
It takes time to learn for the person using it.

AND

It takes time for the person fighting against it.

If anything this feature should be used more by players in the time between now and .86 to learn, because come .86 everyone will be developing their own methods. I went out and bought a little joystick thingy specifically to use with turret steering. Others are remapping their keys...

remember, some people learn and adapt faster than others. Just because you haven't learned it yet, doesn't mean it should be scrapped... if that was the case, Cash would have tossed his guitar out the window after the first lesson, and then where would we be?
Nah, I didn't say: "Scrap It, I don't know what it is and I want it scrapped". All I said is that It's totaly same for me (at least for now) if it would be scrapped or not.

I vote remove it. It combines dodging and firing precisely, which is anti-skill.

Turretsteering on Freighters, Transports, Gunships, Gunboats, Destroyers, Cruisers, Battlecruisers, Light Carriers, Carriers, Battleships, Dreadnoughts, Juggernauts, and all other ship classes mainly outfitted with turrets and not in the fighter/bomber class should stay as it is.

For fighters and bombers it is kinda useless though as most weapons point forward anyway.

fail poll is fail.

Tried fixing that for you.

Turret steering does not give a noticeable advantage to a fighting transport due to very slow turning turrets.

It does for cool and smooth-looking maneuvers though. Especially with the barrel-roll combined with strafing while turning and such. Too bad I have a microsoft keyboard.
