PunisherAS Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Some of you have been playing WoW for so long you expect every single game to have exactly like WoW has. This game is great, and if you can't get what you want you whine. And like I try to ALWAYS SAY, This is SWTOR not WoW. You can either deal with it or whine elsewhere. Bioware, please don't buy into the whiners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dystopic Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 That's right, we don't need meters. Even though every boss in the game has a hard enrage that makes the fight a DPS check, we don't need meters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knewt Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 You are absolutely right. Bioware should not listen to paying customers about features they would like to see in the game. If BW implements add-ons and macros and you don't think they are necessary, don't use them. Oh, and stop trolling. Calling people "whiners" is only making things worse around here. We can have civil discussions without childish name calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLeee Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) I have rheumatoid arthritis, so moving my hands my not be as fast as say yours or anyone else out there. Or reaching to all the keys that I need to (lol Juggernaut)! Having Macros would help me GREATLY. Remember not everyone is like you and can play normally.

lollermittens Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) You have no idea what you're talking about. Whenever you create a WoW clone (and this game is 100% a WoW clone), you better be sure that all of native functionalities that are present in WoW better be present in your clone. Don't try to get cute with a proven system (i.e. reliance on daily quests for gear progression; that's an area BW tried to get "cute" at by re-designing it and they miserably failed at it) that functions to make your game unique. The exclusions of macros and add-ons are one of the primary reasons this game cannot be taken seriously by any self-respected and long-term MMO player. This game is a filler for many (myself included) and will jump ship at the first opporunity AKA when a better game comes out (GW2 and Diablo 3).

lunabaguna Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Macros would be helpful with clearing up bars, especially for skill intensive classes like Juggernaught. Fact is, macro building is part of skill of playing games. If you study your skills, know what skills work well together, and can write a macro based off that, you are increasing your playing ability. All macros would do is increase quality of life. Mods or addons can be abused for sure, but I wish people would stop lumping macros in with that. Macros are harmless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, I dont recall seeing Onyxia or gnomes... do you know what a clone is? Do you know what percentages are? Also, as far as I am aware, GW2 wont have macros or addons.

lollermittens Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) Funny, I dont recall seeing Onyxia or gnomes... do you know what a clone is? Do you know what percentages are? Are you seriously going to argue that his game differs from WoW? The developers themselves said they would follow the WoW model. And of course it's not a clone in the literal sense. I'm talking in terms of gameplay and overall mechanics. Edited February 24, 2012 by lollermittens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunabaguna Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) You called it a 100% clone. It may have similarities to wow, but it is not a 100% wow clone. Edited February 24, 2012 by Trineda removed quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazooty Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 The stupidest arguments are the ones that say anything that wow ever did is bad. Dumbest things I've ever heard. 90% of what wow did is good. And it's also hilarious to see people say this isn't a WoW knock off, when it in fact is, it's just missing half of the content.

Camilladilla Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Second that Gonna have to third this. Coming to this game from Rift, which is another WoW Clone, I got the hang of this game and it's mechanics in minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
