Guild Wars 2

Yeah, because of the slower backpedaling speed playing like this would put you at a disadvantage while kiting. I’m totally okay with that, though.

I have nothing valuable to add to this discussion, I’m just going to +1 it and say I’d like to see it implemented.

UPDATE:

here is more +support

Great vid we need this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpdgW_G4FyU&feature=player_embedded#!

Nijjion.2069:

Love it, great implementation it seems. Missed this sort of action since when playing Tera , The action feel of gameplay is what Guild Wars 2 is missing the most out of anything.

The mouse toggle to look is a MUST for Anet to implement the community is calling out for it.

This is so true!

+1 on this. I posted before asking for mouselook, and this looks and feels exactly what we need. Because of having to hold down the right mouse button all the time to mouselook is so 2004.

I jest. But seriously, holding down the right mouse button to mouselook all the time does not help with wrist pains.

GBT.2734:

This would make GW2 a lot more fun for me. I really don’t like constantly having to
hold rmb, and this would make targeting stuff a lot better!

so so true!

Kqpro.8410:

That really does look amazing, I for one would love being able to turn my character with just the mouse and QWES, I keybind A and D. Please look at adding ANet.

Yep with the right mouse button click toggled a player can play with more ease. It is even easier for people not familiar with mmos.

Ex1 My friend played GW2 and was having a hard time clicking and moving with the WASD keys and he confessed it would be a lot easier if he could just move his mouse and use keys.

It is true there are no stupid questions, but the best question is

Why?

to get to why you need to look at the situation and symptoms first, with the final goal being the why.

So we start with “what”, what is causing this dissatisfaction, what is different?

GW1 combat control only differs from GW2 combat control in two (2) ways…

• There is NO ‘click to move’ (to location on ground, or general direction in 3D) in GW2 – Anet is firm on this, I’m sure.
• You select a target with RMB in GW2, GW1 does not force (or allow?) you to do this.
  ^this is the primary why to the question “what is different?” not the idea that ‘click to move’ needs to be implemented or not.

Simple fix right?

Just remove selecting with RMB, right? WRONG!

Make it bindable AND toggleable or not, same with the “built-in” functionalities of <Alt>, <Ctrl>, and <Shift> and differentiate between LAlt and RAlt, LCtrl – RCtrl ect. (look at Descent: Freespace binds some time, GL finding that one, or running it on a new machine, lol)

Mad King says, “ULTRA-CUSTOM-IZE-ABILITY”

Adding my +1 to this request.

I’m currently not playing much as the game gives me massive wrist pain. I love the game – not so much the pain.

This would be a really cool option to have. It could take some of the awkwardness out of placing AoE attacks.

WOow neoTypic.9284 you took the words right out of my mouth all that right clicking and moving the screen to get the best view is really hurting my wrist too!.

neoTypic.9284 what neoTypic.9284 said (I’m currently not playing much as the game gives me massive wrist pain. I love the game – not so much the pain.)

Here’s an update to the original video giving a lot more information.

This looks amazing!

This looks amazing!

marvellous (apart from the bird, hope it’s OK).

Can an Anet mod comment if they can or are working on something like this if they don’t approve of the combat mod?

PLEASE ANET IMPLEMENT THIS.

I 100% agree you cannot allow such mods because this would open a huge hole for all botting and game automation software to come through, but please, implement this on your own, its simple yet it will add so much to this game.

I like………..

Please for the love of god and all that is holy IMPLEMENT THIS! this seriously makes this game so so so much enjoyable. And it helps handicapped people play it better too.

other than that I have nothing of value to say. just adding to the post count so maybe they notice how many people want this.

Tera was awful. clunky and unresponsive any thoughts on implementing anything like this has to be made optional.

Tera was awful because of the animation lock, not an ability to have locked camera.

Would love to see this ingame. Would be very helpfull.

And btw, of course it must be optional. Noone is going to force this on you. But this must be in, so that those who want it can play with it without fearing a ban.

Dam when i saw that video i was like dam this should have been ingame i really hate the way the camera stuff works ATM that game modder is a genius too bad ANet doesnt allow it lets wait and hope they implement this or allow it or something

of course this type of thing would be optional. it’s called a mod for a reason :p

want Want WANT!!!!

do it ! this is a must …

Hello arenanet, there is alot of people wanting this implemented in game (and using this already) so why dont you contact creator of this mod and add this mod to the game?

Yes, my hand is already starting to hurt trying to circle strave, holding right mouse button and pressing abilites. But i’m too afraid to use this mod because i could still get banned and i value the game too much for this. So in effect this is working against the people that love the game too much to risk a ban. (not saying that the ones that do use this don’t love the game.., but i’d just be destrought if i got banned) Please Arenanet hear us.

I would love this to be implemented in game!
for me, this feature make us more immerse into the combat. Even more in competitive play like sPvP.
At least give us the option A-net!

This needs mroe attention

I’m in the same boat. I can’t play that much cause I’m worried about some sort of injury.

I really want the mod but I’m not willing to risk trouble!

NEED!

This would be a great feature that I know many people would love and It would especially make a very good addition for disabled players!

Yes please, this would make combat SO much more fun.
The way ground targeted spells work here looks so much easier than having to aim that green circle or check where to cursor is before pressing spell.
Also not having to press down right mouse button would save my poor guitar playing right hand a lot of strain.
Add to that i find the manual targeting when you have to click mobs a pain and this looks so much easier.

Dear Arena net can we have a confirmation that this is OK to install!

I love this. Tera combat was awesome but it didn’t have the depth GW2 has. Now I can have both!!!

Definitely much wanted, and soon.

Would love to see this implemented, so yea, go ArenaNET!

There is literally no reason to not patch this in.Please give us true action combat in Guild Wars 2.This is one thing that would make the gameplay so much richer.

A few days ago, I posted in another suggestion thread saying that I wanted them to implement the ability to lock the camera and give us a crosshair above our characters. At the time, I had no idea that this thread existed. This is exactly what I meant.

I want this so much! I’m not gonna use a third party program to achieve this, but the fact that such a feature can be emulated on autohotkey gives me hope that it wouldn’t be too difficult to add it as an actual feature.

Please?

In my opinion, this should already be in the game.

Please, make it happen!

Go Go Go Anet.. gief proper action gameplay pliz!

Adding my support for this. This is what I was expecting when GW2 was advertised as a revolutionary action MMO.

Please implement this or let us use the – very simple – mod!

Please implement this or at least allow us to use it! It would make combat so much more fun!

I simply cannot wait to be using this without fear of the banhammer.

Adding my support. We want this.

most be done by Anet, or at least be allowed.

+1

ArenaNet pls
