... when you pull your car's steering gear in order to lift off and not to crash into the ground,
when you turn your car's engine neutral to save fuel as in inertial mode,
when you recognize that your "TrackIR" is working better than ever - without having an update,
or when you wonder how Vice made those unbelievable realistic and detailed looking new graphics all around you ^^

Doing your best Han Solo impression and giving the 9 hostiles in hot pursuit of your ship the finger as you jump away from the successful cargo drop they just tried to prevent.

Then wake up wondering where you are and where your ship is parked.... :P

gmccabe01. Those are your crew, or was the woman saying something other than "nearby planets may contain valuable materials" because if so, her rating may be less than optimal.

... you see an afterimage of the jump animation when you close your eyes.

... you are more than half way to discovering your 100th hidden planet.

... you realise the sun is rising and you wonder why is the earth spinning all of a sudden? And who stole the defensive torus? Then you run through the streets screaming about how the Vonarii are going to get us now.

... you try to launch countermeasures when someone passes a ball to you.

With your TrackIR still clipped to it.

When walking against the rain, trying to balance front shield by pressing my mobile's up arrow button!

When the time has come, trying to show my station license to home owner!

This one is real: When I was playing a real fighter plane sim, to turn my face to enemy, I pressed space button to activate Inertial Dampening System(IDS)!!!

:P
