-Read what I said, there is a difference between "channeled" and "concentrated." Full Auto is a concentrated spell.

Thank you for your time, actual gameplay proves your initial point wrong, statements made by the developers proves your second point wrong. I think you're done here.

I'm fairly positive that in later posts he admitted the error of his ways, after all.... we're 33 pages in now lol, clearly not enough for Bioware to fix the problems, but 33 pages in nonetheless.

Not reading the entire thread but these are my 2c: I don't mind the damn mortar volley not going off until the animation is almost through, but I do mind full auto not going off half the time AT ALL.

Don't care too much about mortar volley, would be nice too.

However Full Auto not working is very game breaking in pvp, especially considering BHs dont have a version that takes a year to deploy and when it finally deploys, should the wind slightly breeze your way, you lose one tick which is 33% of the damage AND slowing duration on the target.

There's really an insane amount of Republic abilities that have problematic animations compared to their Empire counterparts. Not saying there's any favoritism, just that there's some excessively poor design choices coupled with some extremely poor testing going on behind the scenes.

Not to mention Alderaan civil war turrets EASILY NOTICEABLE ticking faster for empire side.
You don't need a stopwatch or youtube video to notice this. Next time republic takes both mid and left at the start of the game, notice the time it takes before the scores are even.

Nevermind about slight terrain differences giving advantages to one side in other games, one side just blatantly scoring faster for the same resources taken really takes the cake.

However I don't really even care about that as if you're the clearly better team you'll win anyway, I just want my full auto

Bioware ignoring this problem is just another mistake that they're making on top of their already hefty list. Their customer support is already non-existent as it is.

I totally agree. There seems to be a huge delay in both abilities.
