Those notes aren’t even complete! He kept unveiling more and more you can do with the camera!

I just hope it works smoothly with mouse moving … though maybe it can’t, since holding the left button down will autoattack.

Looks like that was an option you can have off or on to make grenades auto fire for instance.

Can we PLEASE get the option to set up buttons to do what we want like we currently have with the combat mode mod? I am talking about setting left click & right click to what we want them to be, and also allowing shift+left click, shift+right click, etc.

Big reason I take breaks from GW2 is the camera. I’m so used to action camera that it starts to annoy me after a while.

This is the best news ever. I’m so excited!

It is optional right? If not I want a full refund since it wouldn’t be the game I bought anymore. I bought this game three years ago knowing one could mouse turn and I didn’t buy Tera because it didn’t have mouse movement.

It is optional, yes.

Very happy for these changes, more options are always better for the game.

Holy cripes,
This is a heckuva’ thing just sort of being squeaked in at the last minute of the PR cycle.

Thank you Mr. Helmich.
As somebody whose got alot of Action-RPG and FPS games under her belt; this game’s targeting scheme has been a frustration I’ve never quite made peace with, and was one of the major reasons I could never quite recommend GW2 to my action game buddies.

I’m more excited for this one dev’s pet project QoL change than whole official features of the expansion.

Not sure I will use it often but some of the other options like using the target for AoE targeting as well I will. Anything to improve targeting is welcomed.

We are heroes. This is what we do!

RIP City of Heroes

This isn’t something I ever expected to see in GW2, but it’s more than welcome.

I find myself increasingly a fan of cross-hair targeting / camera. It seems to be the way more modern games are going these days. I don’t exactly mind the “traditional” way, but I do find tab targeting rather unsatisfying, and I definitely get tired of holding right-click. So good on you, Anet.

Unless we can re-bind the mouse buttons/ scroll wheel, I don’t see why people would use this over Combat Mode or ICM. I certainly wouldn’t.

Who’s betting they will crack down on those “tools” once this is out.

haha ya I wonder… I would be careful, and uninstall it just in case, before HoT releases…

Even if they could detect people using it, why would they ban it? It doesn’t alter game files nor does it provide an advantage. If the devs want us using action camera over CM or ICM then it needs to have the basic functions those programs provide. The fact that we can’t re-bind mouse buttons to begin with is ridiculous.

It would be like banning every gaming mouse with customizable keys
