Are we ever going to see an official implementation, in some way, shape, or form, of the “Combat Mode” mod?
That is to say, will we ever be able to press a key and switch to a centered targeting reticle (or crosshair), so that we don’t have to run around the game with right mouse constantly depressed? So that we can simply LOOK at the foe we want targeted and begin attacking?
It certainly isn’t impossible, or even improbable, if a user can hack it together as quickly as the Combat Mode mod was.
Along with GW2, I’ve also been playing The Secret World, which, while far less dodgy and action-oriented, has this exact feature, and after playing it for so long, I find it almost impossible to come back to GW2, where I could genuinely have my experience improved by the targeting mode, since it’s so much faster-paced, only to find that I have to constantly keep my right mouse button pressed down to be able to look around freely, using tab targeting to select my targets rather than being able to reliably line them up to select them.
It’s ridiculous.
EDIT: Whoops, didn’t know combat mode still works; last I checked, it had been broken by one of the updates. In any case, my point stands: this should be an official feature, not something we have to muddle through with a third-party program.
