Then the game will remain unplayable for people with eyefinity or nivida surround. That group of people might be small but its growing just like SLI/CF did 4 years ago.
@ Bioware
Stop trolling the EU. Fix the downtimes to the middle of the night and not in the middle of the morning / day.

You actually made a thread to insult people who request a feature?

And you do it with no other purpose than the insult itself?

Bioware has already stated they will implement a mod-able UI and they have also hinted (unless I am mistaken, they have not declared) that add-ons will have room in SWTOR. It will be just like WoW. Home grown devs will cook up easy add-ons that will simplify things for other users once the need grows large enough. Considering sites like Curse already exist, it will probably not be long until we see these things floating around.

Moaning on the forum about people moaning on the forum.

i just want to be able to put 3 or even 4 action bars on the bottom middle, the two on the side suck so much. Especially since between group and quest info, they are covered on the side anyways.

1.2 makes valor rank worthless pretty much. The new War Hero gear is better than BM, and can be worn by fresh 50's

There is a problem with 3rd Party UI's, and that's simply 'player created content'. At first this doesn't seem to bad, but there are major problems with this. Let me use a different word for player: 'hacker created content'. For all those that have been hacked, the first thing you are told to do is delete all 3rd party UI's. There's a reason for this, they sneak keystroke sniffers into their code and get into your account this way.

That is the ONLY reason I am against them. I think some are remarkable and others are downright genius. The problem is, anyone can download them, change the code a tad and upload them back to the provider of UI's and whammo! Hacks gone wild!

Now try to think like a corporation. I don't know the numbers, but I'll hazard a guess that "people with eyefinity or nvidia surround" is like twelve guys.

this tbh....

Plus in all honesty I'd prefer they paid devs to work on bugs and features that benefit the whole community (ie content, expacs, etc) rather than implementing and supporting a half dozen modders and a few hundred users that can't follow a walkthrough guide and install said mod without knackering their client.

Keep sucking information out of your thumb, it makes you sound smart.

I have never had an issue with any mod for any game. I have downloaded many gigs of user created content of various types.

If you can't handle figuring out what websites to avoid, what not to download and how to make sure that files are safe. Someone needs to turn off your internet.
