RobHouse Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I know this is going to get buried in seconds under troll fodder, but I was just wondering, what is this ability delay people are talking about? I am playing on a pretty good desktop and i have no delay whatsoever. Is it possible the idea of ability delay is a problem on the users side? or do i not understand the real issue here? some clarity would be great, thanks for the info in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daeborn Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Spell cooldowns I guess. Like all MMOs. If there's another lag I don't experience it and must be a bug or user system error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You tube has already alot of vids on this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbFgy...G_uWyCstMK7nMz oooooo... see i played on a laptop for awhile and i like a 2 second delay between button and actual attack, and i thought it was that. that seemed to pretty clearly be a bug though, and i hear some people talking about how they LIKE ability delay, but that was pretty clearly a bug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get anything like that. My mouse stopping to work for instance I relog and it's fixed. There is a known bug and they're working it. If not being able to wait is a big deal to you oh well. So sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thradar Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) I've not noticed any delays in abilities. I'm being 100% serious playing a heal spec'd Sage who has run lots of FPs. /shrug Edited January 1, 2012 by Thradar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I cant wait,and your not just telling me what you said,you are telling half of the player base this. There has been three threads on this all of them maxed out,third is still going on. A whole bunch of proof and it is not been denied by the devs. There are also times when the intire ui will not respond. No healing no attacking all you can do is move. cant exicute anything at all from the UI to die/be defeated. The vids dont lie and there are alot of them. After going through this since launch,disapointed is a understatement. And no its not my PC nor half the player bases PC's,its client side,or the Devs would not have acknowloged it.

Darren_Kitlor Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) It's a bug in the game. Don't jump on my junk. I code too. To add some perspective:There could be a myriad of related issues that prevent this from getting fixed but it doesn't change the fact this bug has been seen by thousands, replicated by many more (some people don't even realize it), reported since beta, etc. I'm not new to MMOs either: all of them ship with bugs. All MMOS will have bugs years down the road. However, a bug this obvious and pervasive is one that has a high probability of being seen early--yet the product still shipped. Don't make excuses for mistakes. You're allowed to call a bug a bug. If it were coded properly, it wouldn't happen. You don't call a room clean if there's a stain in the center. The entire combat system has suffered from this since back in closed beta. I'm not saying a fix would be easy. I'm not saying there isn't a multitude of factors that would make this a headache to track down and fix. However, I can assure you that a bug like this is not the best coding possible. Just like visiting Sydney, Australia is not the most efficient way of getting from Seattle to New York.
