Docsis Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) nope... haven't experienced any delay... perhaps my old brain doesn't sense the nano-second that it may delay... I say... IF there is a delay, learn to play with it... ADAPT. A TRUE warrior ADAPTS to the conditions of the battle. sheesh.

Sparklehorse Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) really? go play a rogue in wow for like 5 frigging minutes, then come back to SWTOR, and you will instantly see the difference. Can I just punch myself repeatedly in the gut instead? I feel like that would be more constructive. Note: I did not say there was no ability delay, I just implied that it might be greatly exaggerated. I also understand that it is different for different classes. That being said...it's still greatly exaggerated. Edited January 20, 2012 by Sparklehorse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkirus Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) really? go play a rogue in wow for like 5 frigging minutes, then come back to SWTOR, and you will instantly see the difference. I have a 85 rogue in WoW and a 47 Jedi Shadow in TOR...the big difference is..you have auto attack in WoW and none in TOR. With so much haste affects in WoW and some skills not on the global cooldown..along with auto attack...yeah there is a difference. But I can tell you this...I enjoy playing my Jedi Shadow more than I do my rogue. Bioware has done a much better job handling stealth in a game than Blizz has. The so called delay in ToR combat has been no issue for me. Edited January 20, 2012 by Valkirus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleryan Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 It's annoying but not game breaking for me, yet. I'm giving it time to be fixed, if it persists after 3 months, I'll evaluate then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balashark Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) The people that say they don't know what we are talking about in regards to the ability/animation delay must be really slow casual players that something like this would not be noticed. It really is awful and has gotten me killed on several occasions and made me rage quit more than once. Not quitting though, I love this game, they are aware of it and will fix it soon I hope. I deleted a level 25 Marauder because of it. Edited January 20, 2012 by Balashark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rigo Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Its annoying to me but I'm still leveling. Its something that will drive me crazy in a fp or operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishikur Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 No we see it as funny that some find it worth complaining about:) Well considering i would love to see ranked type pvp in this game come along, the delay is a huge killer for this, some people are naturally non competitive and that is fine, for those of us who are however, having a delay is defo game breaking in every aspect.

LucaProv Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I doubt you ever played. Yes, you're right. I bought the game just for the box, never played it. You genius! Can't hide anything from you, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laserfloyd Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) It is noticeable but not game breaking (to me yet). I wouldn't mind having it fixed though. edit: I'm still leveling as well and can see this being an issue in moments where you have to react quickly Edited January 20, 2012 by laserfloyd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can depend on what class you play and what level you are. It didn't start to show up on my BH until I got Tracer Missile, the cast of which repeats for some reason. On sorcerers it didn't really seem to pop up at all, but I didn't play it very far either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginSucks Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Seems that a huge portion of SWTOR is filled with people that don't know the difference between "to" and "too." 'Too' funny. I don't see a delay. I see a longer Global Cooldown in this game and it took some time to adjust to it from WoW. On top of that, I see a combat system in a game that is different than what I'm used to ... and I treat it as such. If I want it my way, right away ... I'll go to Burger King. Now put your money where your mouth is, and hit that "cancel" button. Because at the end of the day, that speaks louder than any pathetic attempt at an attention grab you seek on these forums. Please close the door on the way out ... some of us are enjoying ourselves here. I concur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vgyer Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) its not bad enough for me to serious notice yet in most instances.only time i can think the delay has affected my game is when in huttball i go to grapple->electrodart the ballcarrier in a firepit and after i use the grapple it doesnt activate til person is out of my sight therefore cancels.its not game breaking tho imo.(lvl 42 PT tank tree maxed)as someone said earlier the delay is a server response time issue.thats also the same problem that is causing long loads.if the server isnt sending the data ur client wont load the map or make the next ability work lol. Edit:btw originsucks props on the sig i loled Edited January 20, 2012 by Vgyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonephis Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 lets see , i have a 50 Sorcerer , Mercenary and operative at a decent level i have seen 0 ability delay, animation changes when you queue up skills yes, however that does not = ability delay the spells/skills will hit normally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skizzik Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Yes, it is game breaking for me. Unsubbed because of it (amongst other things). If you can't see it, you're either a clicker or just plain bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkirus Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 3 time glad on a Warlock 1 time glad on a Rogue I don't see an ability delay, I see a longer GCD in this game than that of WoW. Then again, I don't play this game to compare it to WoW. I play this game to compare it to itself. You may go now ... Good points. The game is different than WoW in many ways. And yeah..if it was'nt..I would'nt be playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
