Guild Wars 2

NO we dont need a healer just give us a third or Forth DODGE!

Wooow great responses from all of you so true I read most of them all! keep it up!

Any news about this idea coming to guild wars 2?

This forum needs to stay alive until a GM shuts it down or until GW2 makes combat mode!

jeremo.2491:

I fully support this type of implementation. My wife hates having having to move her mouse where she wants the aoe’s to be targeted, and half the time, it puts the dang aoe behind the mob instead of on it. Oooh she would love this

Dude I totally agree with you bro, except its my brother who is complaining about the mouse controls, he is used to real RPGs like Skyrim and would like to see something like that in game. to make GW2 a real MMORPG it needs to have the Combat mode feature.

OHh WOW! That sound like Arena net is actually looking into this. Thank you Rage The Numbers.7943 for posting this link I will uninstall the Combat Mod right away so I don’t get blocked, even though its crazy awesome feels just like skyrim.

FourTwo.7613:

@Jay.9407 As far as I can tell you can play using the mod full screen with no loss in fps (not windowed), the only thing you’ll be missing is the mouse cursor overlay, which depending on the profession you play may not be a big deal at all.

ArenaNet, I do hope you’re working on an official implementation of this!

I Like what you are saying FourTwo.7613 il give it a shot too.

Great!

Well I still hope ArenaNet professionally implements this there are so many thing they can fix, make right and do better with if they do it.

Well il give the mod a go since I read that link it seems safe for now though I don’t like all the steps I have to go though, wish they had it in full-screen it runs better.

Hmm interesting im going to check this out. I hope this is legit.

On second thought after reading the guide to setup the Combat Mode Mod it seems to me like a lengthy process I wouldn’t recommend people try to do.

I don’t recommend people to follow the link posted by Vorch.2985 and download it. I have read else where that you can get banned for using Combat mode.

2. http://games.on.net/2012/09/combat-mode-mod-aims-to-change-guild-wars-2-camera-control/

So lets keep Shouting and sooner or later GW2 will professionally implement it.

DUDE! we dont want to use third party tools, there is a chance we can get BANNED. And second it DOES NOT work NOTHING like Combat Mode.

People forget about X-Mouse Button, you might get banned, and all it really does is holds your right mouse button down and its full of glitches that will make the noob frustrated.

Thypari.9043:

Have a look at this video of a fan made mod:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpdgW_G4FyU

The only difference from how I am playing GW2 right now without any mods is:

• I don’t have to hold right click all the time
• The mouse changes to the middle position of the screen while rightclicking, so I don’t have to move it manually to that position before I start a fight. And I know where I will put AOE abilities on the ground even while I am using right click to move.
• My Aoe Abilities are always casted at the crosshair position
• fast targeted ground targeting on button release: While I hold the button I see the circle indicator. When I release the button, the spell goes off.

These are only some things, which would improve the combat significantly. I hope they will get addressed, because other competitive games like league of legends already have these features. (e.g. smart cast on button release is a hidden option and everybody plays with it)

Best wishes,
Thypari

Wow every time I look at this video I get pumped! but then I think will GW2 give it to us very soon?

There are to many people wanting this feature in game, it would hurt GW2 and the community if we had to wait 6 months to a year for this to come out.

Hey guys any ideas on that will do for now that wont get us banned? like binding the keys to a controller?

that sounds like a good temporary idea to me, I have asked some friends to see if the can help me with this.

also any new updates about the mod?

NZ Scyther.8675:

Want this so bad. Please implement it or at least allow us to use this script.

+1 and totally agreed!

GOOD NEWS GOOD NEWS!! THE GMS HAVE SEEN THIS FORUM!!

Conversation with team member of ArenaNet

Jay:
Hey are you seeing this forum? the whole GW2 Community wants this very soon. thanks for checking it out. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/Combat-UI-improvements/first

CC Eva:
Hi Jay.
Thanks for bringing this into my attention. I had already a look on it some hours ago and I will forward it to the team in the end of my shift.
Have a nice day!

I believe they can make this mod within a minute lol Jk more like a few days to do it totally right.

Esorono.1039:

I hope this suggestion list gets so long that they can’t ignore it and just make it. I’m pretty sure anyone who knows coding can make this mod within an hour.

Agreed! so Agreed. I believe if we keep this up for a week or 2 they wont be able to turn their heads.

Your supportive comments people are welcomed and ArenaNet better see this!

That’s the spirit folks!

Enigma.3950:

Keep this thread hot and active till a Anet member reads it. I am all for this mod.

I read most of all your supportive comments people and love them!

Hello everyone I am going to keep this short and simple. I will tell you how to increase your PC or laptop gaming performance without needing to upgrade anything.

For those of you who just have a weak PC or laptop I will tell you the ideal gaming rig, the one I am using right now the laptop that gives me 25 to 34 fps maxed graphics.

1. If your computer wont meet the GW2 Minimum System Requirements then you need to get one of these http://www.shopping.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Laptops/HP-Pavilion/A3F49AV?HP-Pavilion-dv6t-7000-Quad-Edition-Entertainment-Notebook-PC this bad boy hands down wont let you down at all, TRUST ME I HAVE ONE TOO AND I AM GETTING GREAT FPS OUT OF IT!

2. check your systems background operations. background operations can really slow start-up and your in-game performance. You can check your Back ground operations by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete then select task manger then press the Processes tab to see all the background programs.

3. Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) can be slow but if its not and your computer is slow on the web or in-game try getting a good anti-virus software and clean up your PC. Another good option to fixing lag issues is to stop any downloads you might be having, this should give more Mbps to the game and better your gaming experience.

4. Try checking your task manager for other background running software that are eating up your internet speed (mbps) You can check your Back ground operations by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete then select task manger then press the Processes tab to see all the background programs. If you see a software that is eating up your Mbps end its task.

5. Get a game booster. What a game boost does is clears most of all background operations and stuff clearing up much PC or laptop power allowing you to play GW2 with better FPS. As a fact I have tried game boosters on my laptop and I have went form 30 fps to 45 fps.

Well that is a few I could think of best of luck OH! and If you don’t know what you are doing in the task manager DON’T TRY TO END ANY TASKS.

GET THAT HP LAPTOP IT REALLY REALLY WORKS NO LIE IT IS TRUE YOU CAN GET A POWERFUL GAMING LAPTOP FOR UNDER 1k

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.)

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.

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!

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!

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

We need this forum to stay at the top so the GMs can see it. keep bumping it people!!

The GMs really need to see this so I am posting this again here because it agrees with the forum.

+1 here

Add an option to ‘lock’ the camera to the mouse (like it is when the RMB is held down) at all times and have a modifier key (like shift) bring up the free-moving cursor in-order to interact with the game world.

wow just amazing

is it out yet? where can i get the download?

cool thank for the reply, I know your not a GM but if someone els is going it i should be able to do it to.

Hello I need a GM to clarify this issue.

I have mapped all movements and controls except for the look onto the Logitech Gamepad F310. Everything works perfectly fine and until later the lack of total view controls is bearable.

I want to know is this ok, will I get banned? its logitech, not some third party hack or mod so I think I am ok. please post back soon.

Hello everyone I just want to keep this simple and clean and right to the point.

Who would like more ways to move their character without just mouse and keyboard?
here are a few of my ideas.

1. Mouse Lock
by pressing a certain key or clicking a blank spot in the screen you will be able to move your view around with the mouse without holding down the right mouse button.

2. All Keyboard
A Control schemes that allows players to use only their keyboards, no need for a mouse.

3. Game-pad option
Allowing or making it easier for a player to setup a game-pad with GW2 would be great, it will also allow players who are not so good with the mouse to use something thy are more familiar with.

Well that,s all of my control ideas GMs please consider this, and everybody else who likes this drop a comment and or add more control ideas.
