I'm one of many who detested the GCD changes they made, im very happy they've listened to the community and acted on it swiftly, for once a step in theb right direction, well done Bioware.

Cant we have a cooldown effect off option though, i dont like the counters at all tbh and was happier with the old hotbar

Oh and must there be a cooldown effect on abilities that arent on cooldown? cant you limit it to abilities that need it rather than virtually the whole hotbar lighting up, my speeder for example defo doesnt need a cooldown effect

looks pretty spiffy... although nothing they do will ever satisfy everyone. This thread is proof of that.

Sounds like 4 hours of downtime to me!

dues to working on the solution,

but, give us the option to turn it off, simple, i liked it the old way, flashing has actually made me log off for the last 3 days, its horrible, it doesn't need to flash, the way it was was fine, great there are new options, give us on to turn off flashing and let the line go down the bar like it used to.

So many flashes, i get bugged. Don't understand nothing, wasn't it clear enough????

What did you exactly needed?????

More numbers?? more messy!
I think it was perfect, and you already had a timer if you use the mouse roll over. And now is ridiculously flashing, as if i had not enough with all that special effects and lights in my screen.

This isn't the ultimate solution, but it is a step in the right direction with giving the player the ability to customize. I do wish there were a LOT more customization in the UI, and I am sure that's being worked on as well, so thank you for this. I was unimpressed with the update, and am glad I can go back to the way it was, at least.

If that's what that is then yes please and no I don't want a timer for the GCD just any CD that is greater than that is fine. I hope you can make a bigger timer if that's what that is.
