When will dev's learn that you need a smooth, nice and fluent combat system. Seems like only Blizzard know.

Which is a shame because the game is actually very cool but I simply can't stand clunky, heavy unresponsive controls/combat, it's a total game killer. The jumping in this game makes me what to throw up.

Feels like your character is walking on rails, insane.

Get a new computer, might help actually...

i agree with OP combat is cluncky at best. WoW combat system is much better. Abilities dont fire properly as well.

P.S. crouching implementation is worst.

LOL actually most of those games are doing fine even if you (and I) don't like them

I think you need a new PC, combat is easily the best part of this game. even people highly critical and nitpicking agree combat is fantastic

ps

ending a message like you did tends to paint you as a troll

It's not ridiculous at all to expect a company's first MMO to be completely kink-free and up to all industry standards out of the box.

Right guys? Right?... Oh.

The fact that you can play tardcraft on your 10 years old PC doesn't mean that you can also play modern games, even ones that try to cater for paupers.....

No one wants a ****** unresponsive combat system.

Anyway this was the last MMO I buy unless it comes form Blizzard (Exception for GW2), I wasted a epic large amount of cash on failed MMO's. AOC, RIFT, DC Online, Warhammer etc, to much money literally down the drain.
I told you guys not to feed THIS WoW TROLL! I like the system and Ive played WoW since Sept 05. You go back to your WoW and we will enjoy this.

OP is probably whining because he has been getting killed a lot. Coming from someone who played WoW since beta up until last year, the combat in this game is far smoother.

I'm running two GTX480's in SLI. Doesn't drop under 70 FPS. Latency is 200 which is completely normal as I'm from Australia, which will not change unless we get local servers.

Regardless as movement etc is done client side not server.

Ah of course, pvp kiddo used to faceroll in tardcraft using macros and addons while watching sesame street gets his *** handed to him systematically in a game where you actually have to pay attention to what happens on your screen
