Fully agree with the OP's post. There is nothing more frustrating with TOR's combat then feeling like your character refuses to act when you want him to.

Yeah, changing basic terms to more "Star Warsy" will totally justify his thread about one of the many problems in this game. Check mate OP.

Thank you for such a rewarding and interesting post, and not at all useless or annoying sounding at all. Keep up the good work.

The best was collecting hearts. Some days I wander out of the house forgetting my heart too!

This. Right now, I can handle the other normal, beginning bugs. But if this doesn't get fixed soon, like, in the next month or two, I really doubt I'll be playing this game.

Yeah, total realism right here. Let me just go get my saber made of light, my laser shooting gun, and wrist mounted rockets and we'll throw down. Seriously, let me use my camera how I want so I don't feel like an idiot who can't turn his head and run at the same time. How's that for realism?

Yeah, it is total skill playing without macros. Oh wait. Its actually a very minor thing that affects preference more than gameplay. Addons are only able to be created based upon what Bioware lets them do, so arguing against players who use what Bioware would allow seems pretty dumb. Interesting.

By your logic, everyone should have the same computer, mouse, keyboard, internet connection, and chair, so everyone has the same advantage. So... can I expect your check in the mail? Wouldn't want it to be unfair or anything!

How do you not get that that is STILL not a good thing? "Oh, its okay that there are few other players in your instance, they are in the OTHER ones!" Yeah, GREAT reasoning.

yeah, he obviously has no life as it takes soooo much time and effort to get to fifty! Oh wait, its an MMO. Are you always this grumpy when you haven't had your baby nap?

YEAH! General forum isn't for things about the game! And it most certainly isn't for complaints and issues put/ignored that are in the game!

I love how everybody who tries to defend this AWFUL change brings up fixes that are required of the user, as if people aren't paying monthly for Bioware "fix" things in their game that require no such thing.

This problem makes the game so un-fun. Fix it Bioware.

I'm not so sure about this. Especially in PvP, it never seems to work that way.

I usually don't quote lots of things from a post, but for all that is good and just in the world, this. And it is not just Force Wave. It is nearly every single move. Blaster whip for Smuggler? Damage only happens after the character reaches back and then finally hits the person with the blaster. The generic Slash for Knights? Character waves his saber about for a second THEN does the hit. This is ridiculous and needs to be the top priority for fixes.
