I have cerebral palsy on my left side, so I feel your pain.. What I do is use a Logitech 3d extreme pro and xpadder. I can map 1-8 on POV and surrounding buttons, use trigger as shift to access 2nd bar. Directional is obvious.and misc mapped on the base buttons (I have tab mapped on first button that my left thumb can tap). With this, I can successfully play game with just my right index finger and thumb and left thumb.

xpadder and gamepad/joystick

We disabled people are the most resourceful people in the world. I found this long ago when I played my first mmo Everquest.. I have CP on my left side, so it makes button mashing and navigating almost impossible as most mmo's you really need two good hands to be optimal. What I did and still do is use a good keymapping program and joystick. currently I'm using xpadder and a logitech extreme 3d pro. with my setup, I have no problem doing fp and sm because I can pretty much do everything one handed. Don't know if this helps your op or not, but my main point being if there's a will there's a way.

It's no pants tuesday

it's no pants Tuesday.... DUH!

Yes , I have HK on a few chars and I'm aware of the convenience of assassinate. I just couldn't grasp why OP deemed it dumbing down. To me, dumbing down equals easy mode.

Wait.. You can't one shot any longer and this is dumbing down the game? Maybe it's just my old mind going, so let me get this correct. - one shotting a mob = intelligent and strategic tactics - no one shotting a mob = dumbing down Why do I feel like I woke up in bizzaro world?

you forgot the ";" lol Input a$ "what level you wish to be?"; if a$="50" print "lol you wishorz!";

True story.. back in my day i had to code my own games in BASIC on my TRS-80 to play a game.. and before i could afford my 5 1/2 floppy i had to code the games over and over to play.. that's what A gamer comes from..

Who remembers Terris and gemstones III?

I'm with ya OP! Lord forbid if they had to play MUDs like we had to back in the day. When the most graphics you got was font colors lol.

actually, he loses nothing.. they gave us the day back..

Don't get me wrong, I am flustered about the situation too.. I finally had a full day to devote to the game and this happened.. But what can I do? whine? complain? threaten to leave? What good will it do? the game will be up when it's time, it will go on without me if i left.

Yes but I think the main idea is that you can complain, cry and vent all you want, it not going to do any good except make you more fusterated. I think in the politest terms people are just saying accept that it happened and move on to something else to occupy your time... nothing can be done.

yup i remember you looked ahead for DAOC patch days cause you knew you weren't playing that day.

tree-fiddy

DAOC used to do it all the time

i'm old.. i admit it.. that said i remember when UO first came out and people were getting killed by rabbits...

thank you Xiianil, at least someone gets it. By and by, i meant no disrespect in my initial response, i was just merely trying to put it in perspective

no i've read everything you said, i give you that much respect because i come from old school and have respect for others without belittling or name calling.. Which younger generations have the total lack of. My point being is there is NO achievement in playing an mmo.. it's all circumstancial, it has no real merit. Button mashing is no great feat.

AHA! yet the sarcasm was returned but unnoticed, so who now is the dumbfounded?

lol not in the least. but thank you for profiling me.. not in anything i said have i mentioned "monotary".. investing in your kids you do get a return. your are investing in love and admiration, you are investing in the continuance in your heritaty.. how does that in ANY way compare to the brain numbing time put into a game?

enlightened you become...

I don't need to try, you are just continuing to prove your frivalty and lack of sensitivity by debating investing time in a GAME..

It's how the world works junior.. Get used to it.. the electricity goes out.. you still pay.. your phone goes out .. you still pay.. Complain all you want, but in the end you still want the services so you still pay..
