Same here, did it for a few months after launch while shopping for a keyboard/gamepad combo and mmo mouse. I hate regular keyboard binding, and my G500 was nice in other games but not here. Ended up with steel series merc stealth and naga, and wouldn't consider clicking again. Snobs aside, I reckon most of the vociferous posters for binding are trying to convey to those that don't what they're missing. The equivalent of "Dude, you gotta *********** believe me, driving a car is faster than walking."

Just don't knock it til you try it is what I want. If you try keybinding and hate it then at least you tried but if you put in the time to learn its almost always worth it.

Please let me now when and where. I want to se that live (also from ToFN).

I am clicker on few chars (ie commando).
Full keybind on some chars (ie. scoundrel Scrapper )
Half keybind on some chars (ie. Vanguard )

I am personaly supporting clickers There are just 2 different ways to play not better but different for me.

Just a question here. I've never played a commando, but I do have a Vanguard tank and strafing and keybinds have really helped my tanking. Is it not required by commandos to strafe and execute certain non-staionary skills to heal and stay away from focus? Especially if speced to healer. I have face quite a few and it seems they have problems keeping up with people who make circles around them. Not asking about Keybind or Clicking here, just the mechanics of playing the commando.

On vanguard ive got about 4 or 5 binds However on commando I dont have any problem clicking. I can write half page os stuff but point is my team is not complaining. Playing Commando on gunnery only. Also point is most os commando skills are channeled and I'm not having problems with slow turning. I agree that on some classes binding really increase their value (ie. Scoundrel) but I think commando clicker can perform as good as commando with keybinds with no problem. Only my personal feelings.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the reply.
I'm not against clicking players. I just think there are different ways to play and if people are comfortable that way and it's helping their teams respectively keep at it. How's the saying go "Never change a running system"? I changed mine, but I'm comfortable like this and I have fun, that's the bottom line really. Teamplay and fun while doing it.
