Combat Log Absence


JonnyBoss

Recommended Posts

I'm just recently level 50, I've been playing since 7 days of early access and I love almost everything about this game.

 

Though my one huge complaint is the absence of a combat log, how on earth did this get omitted from release? I mean we have the damages float above our heads so the information is there, why was it not important enough for the devs to transfer this over into a log?

 

It is extremely difficult to be fighting a boss and not know exactly what move was hitting you the hardest and thus not being able to accurately determine when to blow my tank CD's.

 

Is there any news on this being added? The absence is ludicrous for end game PvE oriented players and it needs to be added severely.

Just add that to the already huge list of basic and needed MMO features and mechanics that are needed for a modern MMO that aren't in this game.

Is there any record of a dev commenting on this?

 

Because this is a HUGE exclusion.

What is sad is that people will probably say that even though I have had the game since the 13th and am on winter break.

You would think they would be interacting with the community right at launch and not out sipping their tea on vacation. I'm sure this game still hasn't turned a profit yet.

 

They're to busy collecting the money and listening to the biodrones who won't admit there are any problems and won't admit anything needs to be fixed.

Until the search feature is turned back on, google is your friend. A thread was started 8 days ago about combat logs with a link on the first page of the thread to an interview with Georg Zoeller where he says that they will be adding combat logs and it's something high on their priority list. Here is the link to the thread which contains the quotes from the interview transcript on page 1: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=66910

 

Nonetheless, I'm sure the daily "we need combat logs" threads will keep being created along with claims that the devs haven't said anything about combat logs.
