Clock

posted on June 6th, 2010, 5:52 am

I don't know if this has been requested, but here it goes: how about a clock to help you keep track of time ? I was thinking it can be placed in the upper left corner of the screen, above the avatar picture. Something small, unobtrusive. I bet Doca can code this in a couple of minutes.

I agree that would be an epic feature. I've gotten so used to the clock in Starcraft 2 that I miss it when I play FO

Would be helpful, lets me know when the Romulans are about to kick out a Tavara

Yay...... then it will be a competition!

How many kills (cruisers and up) can you make with a Tavara in 1 hour?

I was thinking more like current time, but a chronometer wouldn't hurt either.

STO has something similar, and I have found it to be very useful! It would also help with predicting where ships are based on speed

Oh cool,
two lines for the clock, first is the RL Time, so you cannot get lost while playing and underneath it the time the game is running

  That I was thinking of. With different colors, maybe.

I think, as so many people will probably support this idea, i'd sugest a poll, just for counting the supporters and impress our beloved devs a litle to rank it higher on their todo list.

Let me get this straight; you can't be bothered to TURN YOUR NECK any more, even to look at a clock or watch? If that's the case, you really need to go outside, go for a walk in the real world for a while. No offence.

What's a real werld? 

I really don't think we need an ingame real time clock. Guys, come on. Do some gym and use your watch or a clock 
An ingame-timer would be nice though.

Yeah its been suggested before, and I definitely support it.
