Guild Wars 2

Hi,

I have been doing quite a lot with commander lately. While running Silverwastes tonight I began to notice I was losing track of just where my mouse pointer really was. This wasn’t so bad in the beginning when it was just me and four other people, but when it turned into four other people and eight or more Mordrim I really struggled to find this.

I assumed my eyes were just tired. I’ve been playing a bit longer today than I usually do. Unfortunately, the issue continued while doing Tequatl. Then I remembered that I’d run into this problem in Fractals year when I was doing them every day.

It’s really not my eyes. After a while all the flashes, splashes, bangs, pops, and other bells and whistles really just goes beyond what the eyes can process.

I think you really ought to invest some time into creating a few optional mouse icons for people trying to figure out just what where it is in the middle of all else taking place on screen.

Thanks!

Agreed. I too find it hard to spot the little white cursor amongst all the glowy, shiny, flashy special effects. Would be nice to be able to select a cursor size and/or color.

Try Yolomouse – if there’s one thing Anet don’t ever listen to the player base on it’s the UI, so sometimes you just have to find your own solution. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYc11uUGYfQ This video shows how to set it up and has a link to where you can download it and a link to some custom cursors that fit the game like they were always meant to be there. Seems to be good software too – absolutely no issues with it at all even just letting it run all the time (though it only does anything when you’re playing a game you’ve set it up for).
