The ability delay, healing problems - party ui bars not showing correct health, death spike.

 

Im no coder or game expert but this idea fits most of this problems so would like to see peoples thoughts. Could this be the problem or not, is it possible etc

 

If combat damage/healing was not real time but done at the end of each GCD (global cool down) So during the GCD all is added up the when it refreshes its all applied, so every 1.5 secs its delt.

 

This fits well with ability delay as its mostly damage healing abilitys that it seems to affect not stuns etc.. that are instant. Seems to explain healing problems with ui because they are behind waiting for the GCD to finish and then update. And it explains the death spike when you are on low health and you all of a sudden die at the end of the GCD because its dealing you that last bit of damage

 

 

 

Thoughts ?

Possible my friend but Bioware needs to step up and communicate with us on this subject... it warrants response and communication from Bioware, further silence damages relations more and more as well as diminishes trust.

 

There cannot be a Thread of 40+ Pages, tens of thousands of views and hundreds of responses on an issue so important without Bioware Communication...

 

 

Even if Bioware doesn't have the solution, even if they believe it cannot "yet" be fixed... honest communication goes a long way, gamers are actually quite intelligent for the most part. Ignoring the subject damages the game more than open communication...

 

 

If you can learn anything from Blizzard, try communication and openess.
