Asparhruk Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 1 - At this point, that statement is ******** and you know it. I´ve had several tickets unattended and not once have I got a (very late) reply other than by a bot. ... I haven't stated anything about tickets here, as was aiming only towards patches and fixes, and think we can agree all they are really very responsive and trying to be quick about those. As far as tickets go...i haven't used any in this game yet, but you must be of the later WoW players, cause you obviously don't know or don't remember what WoW service was in the beginning of the game. Basicly unexisting. Hours and hours waiting to get (eventually) one "robot" response and no help at all. Not to mention the slow fixing of bugs and patches, sometimes taking months...but let's not go into that other game so much. All i am saying is they do seem more responsive and quick on the patch/fix front so far, than most companies, including Blizz (at least early blizz). That's why i hope they continue with this and actually fix this uncalled for change pretty fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vydor_HC Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I like the game and am still subscribed, but after the patch, I can't really enjoy the game much. Loading screens, missing textures, missing companions from view although they are there, CTD's, getting stuck repeatedly in the intro screen, and I could go on. None of this stuff was effecting me prior to the patch. Now, the game is almost crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harower Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Abilities with long cooldowns are impossible to time now. This is forces me to spam which ****s up my game client locking me out of abilities for about 3 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soazak Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 /signed please give us the old way back. It was a change in the patch, not a bug. •The cooldown indicator on hotbars no longer causes all ability icons to appear grayed out (unusable). Now, when an ability is on cooldown, it will not be grayed out if its activation conditions (like resource costs or range) are met. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batcheck Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I knew it was going to be an issue, but my first 10 min of playing it didn't seem so bad. I then queued up for warzones, and that's when frustrations began. As a smuggler, not being sure if dirty kick and flash grenade are back up yet is just silly. I'd hit dirty kick a couple of times before I'd realize that it wasn't up yet. Whatever you were trying to fix Bioware, this was not the correct approach.

Harower Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 They wont make it optional. Just like they wont make forced camera snapping optional -_- Or allowing smart camera to be locked when you hold down ctrl allowing you to target stuff from any direction while running any direction..... not optional. Target of target. Not optional. Video settings are full of non optionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenStarkill Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 The need to mouseover an ability that looks like it is off/nearly off CD to know for sure/get an exact timer is quite frustrating. The UI in general needs alot of work. They would save themselves so much time and money and make so many people happy if we could just let players create add-ons.

dtim Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Bioware, fixing what isn't broken is idiotic. I have to agree. Please revert back to the previous method of graying the icons out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakumene Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I figured out how long it takes for my abilities to come off cooldown since I've been playing this same character from level 1 to 50. No need to change the current system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinnee Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Just put a *********** cooldown number on it, just like we did on wow. Start copying the good things, your game won't last with this way of experimentations on something that's already discovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSchmo Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) Forgive my ignorance, but I didn't read through most of this thread. I played last night after the 1.1 update. I saw really no difference in the cool downs. All I coul tell was they went from a see through grey to a less transparent blue. Still looked and worked fine for me.

AcousticColors Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I rarely post on these forums, but this is one issue I've got to agree with. It's not so bad with my other toons, but my main is a Jedi Guardian. 90% of my buttons are mostly blue and about 50% have long CDs. It is ridiculously difficult now to tell when an ability is off CD, when now the icons and the CD indicators are the exact same color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonisaurus Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Reinstall. Solved it for me. The loading screens too. Granted, I have a very fast internet connection, so redownloading wasn't a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vidrak Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) I also hate this change. If the buttons are lit up all the time, even when they are not available, you are wasting time in your rotation pressing them when they are still not completely finished. This is especially bad for longer CD abilities with a sliver of CD left and you simply can't see it. This should be changed back to how it was, or at least give ways to note what is on CD more accurately. Maybe a flash or something when something goes off CD? There are many ways to do it. All I know is after the patch, the hot bars are less user friendly than they were before. The patch read: •The cooldown indicator on hotbars no longer causes all ability icons to appear grayed out (unusable). Now, when an ability is on cooldown, it will not be grayed out if its activation conditions (like resource costs or range) are met. With how bad the CD graphical notification is, the abilities need to be grayed out if they are on CD OR do not meet the conditions for being used. Or provide another way to provide feedback to the user if something is on CD still. The vertical moving bar is hard to see near the bottom of a button.
