Elite Dangerous does. I forget what they're called, but there's a toggle keybind that lets you turn the stabilizers or whatever off so that if you throttle up and then cut the throttle you'll continue moving infinitely in that direction until you turn the stabilizers back on or thrust in a different direction.
It lets you do wildly badass shit like boosting past someone, cutting throttle and stabilizers, spinning around, and blasting them as you fly backwards and they're still trying to turn around.
I guess that's turning off the inertial dampeners, I heard Starfield lets you do that but I haven't tried it. But yeah the flight model of ED is far better.
I don't think you can in Starfield, or at least I didn't see options for it. Elite Dangerous ruined me on space flight, I always look in game bindings now for disabling the dampeners and also a button that immediately cuts all throttle, didn't find either in Starfield's bindings
I read about it, apparently it's RB on controller or LAlt on keyboard. Haven't tried it.
No cut throttle button though, hopefully a mod will do that if Bethesda doesn't.
That'll be a game changer, I have to try it out soon
I tried it, doesn't seem to be a toggle. Gonna be tough to fly that way. I like the shooting in Starfield but don't like the flying as much.
