Im actually worried about hotbar space in the future. I have 1 spot remaining on my hotbars and I dont even have every ability up, a couple I dont use so I removed them.

What will we do if we get legacy abilites? We need more hotbars I guess.

Try playing melee class with hotkeys overdose while you have to stay at your moving targets while piano playing. It is doable, but its uncomfortable as hell - and game are not ment to have uncomfortable controlls you know...
I play a Sent and I don't have a prob it's all about setting up your hotkeys to your comfort lev. They don't need to make the game easier I like skill in my rotation.

cheers tho.
Yes, that certainly gives you adventage over me in terms of fingers agility. But mmo cannot cater only to people skilled in fingers struggle - it woudl have quite small playerbase in the end, when players who dont like so much fingers struggle will abandon it.

This whole thread made me laugh. Now we don't just have the "omg these guise just have 1 key they spam over and overrrrrr" threads. Now we get to see these. Give it a rest. But I guess there's always something you can find to ***** about.

ill be glad when the day comes as clicking keys isn't hard, it just needs practice.

the less monkeys we have playing, the better.

let me change that

the less monkeys we have pvpin, the better, i really dont care about PVE, you can have all the PVE macro's you like, just not for pvp, that would make no sense at all.

Find which binds work for you, take the buffs/least used abilities and throw them to the sidebars and remember their binds. I remember I felt this way for like a day when I hit 50, reworked where I wanted things and now it's fine.

What makes no sense at all is that a "skilled player with no problem with his hotkeys whatsoever" is affraid of macro user who dont have so much controll over his actions as the one who dont use single macro... You either deceive yourself that you have no prbolems with hotkeys, you lie to us or you have irrational fears of macros, am i wrong?

I have absolutely no respect for a post like this.

Go back to wow and play that.



Giving players a variety of skills and lots of different talent to use in any given situation makes for more interesting and challenging gameplay while also making it clear who is actually a real good player and who's not. So in other words if you think you have too many buttons to handle then play a different game...

So... people want game play based on skill and not gear. So now gear is being made easily available for everyone. Which is a great thing.

But then we get posts like this where skill is supposed to be taken out of the equation.

How about the game just plays itself in the future and we all sit back and watch it like a CGI movie?
