Almost wanting to count down till they make this change because I know its inevitable. Unless they just enjoy burning off our antenna with magnifying glasses hehe ;p.
“So only players who can afford expensive peripherals would have this feature?”
Pretty much my point. everyone should have the option of having character specific keybinds, a $100 dollar mouse is not in everyone’s budget. A game should not require third party apps for functionality. In WoW they don’t support addons however it adds a lot of character to the game however also a bunch of technical issues. I feel that Anet dose not allow third party apps for that cause which is great because it puts everyone on a level playing field more or less.
I am sure the application is linked to GW2, I found the game in the computer options under profile and linked GW2.exe to my characters profile. There is also many options in how you want the buttons to react, like if you want the move to be pressed repeatedly or a single time. I tried all the combos of these button actions and came out with some interesting results but nothing I was going for.
I try to bind "shift+ M3, M4 and M5 with the macro tab however when I record just two buttons it turns into a huge list. For example, Shift(up), Shift(down), M5(up), M5(down) then usually (M5(up) and M5(down) is repeated another 15 times with a Shift(up) and Shift(down) at the end. When I bind those keys to the button layout some times the buttons don’t work and other times the M5 button works but not while holding shift down. Each time I record I get a different recording or similar so i’m confused. I may have missed something, however watched many videos and followed the manuals to the word.
The only thing I want to bind is the upper action bar with the F1-4 because it has to be changed every time I change characters.
Have a feeling you did not read the post through thoroughly. I have a Razor Naga epic mouse. I know that some mouses work better with the applications that they come with. The Razor Naga Epic’s third party app is unclear and has very little help from its customer service and the manual really does not explain much about macro use aka keybinds. Its either that or the mouse app is glitchy with the game. If anyone has a Razor Naga Epic mouse and knows how to work the macros pleeeeeeaaaaaassssseeeee tell me! <3!!!
Glad you see it my way, lets start a movement!
I’m sure it has been said..
I really hope they put a better LFG system in this game… I find it most difficult finding pugs (pickup group) if no one in the guild wants to do a guild run. One thing I loved about World of Warcraft was the ability to get instant groups for dungeons/raids and pvp. Not saying GW2 should copy WoW’s mechanics but make it to their unique standards for the game.
There is a very expansive range of game play in GW2 including dungeon raiding and pvp. In my opinion having the ability to save more than one spec and having the ability to change them when each occasion calls would add much needed simplicity. Since there is already an option to switch from DPS armor to town clothes I really don’t see any problem implementing this. Its a giant pain finding your armor in the hero tab’s bags every time being that they change consistently when you obtain any new armor, weapons or enchantments.
I’m sure it has been said, however could not find the thread in the forums so starting a new one…
I just find it very strange that character specific keybind were not implemented when the game came out because every character uses different keybinds unless your a clicker or use keybinds on the keyboard. I searched on the internet finding many people complaining about this trying to figure out either ways around it or wanting it implemented in the game.
There are ways around it already including two third party applications as followed; Razer Naga/ other brands of mouses and a free third party addon that could get you hacked by a keylogger. I have a (Razer Naga epic) spending hours and hours trying to wrap my mind around how the character specific binds/ macro applications work. Finding out that GW2 is just super touchy with third party addons allowing some products to work and others to epicly fail.
I really don’t want to change around my buttons every time I want to play another character, it really makes me unmotivated to try new classes and makes World of Warcraft almost shine brighter with all the customization that can be done. However everything else in this game besides a few tech issues blows WoW out of the water!
