Just hold down the mouse button when you attack and you don't have to click, click, click!

 If having to aim and click bothers you so much, play another game, I heard Aion is a lot of fun!

 As for Fallen Earth, the PvP does take a lot more skill then say the PvP in WoW, anyone who is 45 and has tried PvP knows I speak the truth, it's not something I can really explain but something others would have to see for themselves. :/

 Right now my guild is organizing a faction v faction event at the end of the month, though I have a feeling Travs are gonna win, go go pistols! XD

[Mod edit]

Auto-attack? NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I'm sorry that you've had carpal tunnel, but I really think it would be game-breaking for me if they put auto-attack in.

I like having to swing my sights all over the place because the mobs don't stand still and wait to be killed. I like having to measure out my ammo and try not to waste shots. Auto-attack on a pistoleer would mean crafting nothing but bullets morning noon and night. No thanks, I think it's just fine as it is.

Suggesting an auto attack in FE is so stupid, it would never happen.  If having to aim and click bothers you so much, play another game, I heard Aion is a lot of fun!

I have a question for you. Who is more stupid. The person that is new to the game that  has a good reason to want auto attack or the person who acts like a buttwhole claiming the guy is stupid we don't need auto attack in this game to find out it pretty much is? :P

 If all you have to do is hold down the button to auto attack I would say it's pretty much in the game already and I'm a happy camper.

No one is stupid for suggesting anything but the suggestion you made it to a point. Auto attack would in no way work in FE due to the reasons stated. Although I understand why you would suggest it I just think you didnt think about it enough before doing so. 

 ill just file this with the other posts tryingto turn FE into WoW.

Game needs auto attack

No it doesn't. Move on.

You all do realize that auto attack is in the game pretty much by just holding down the mouse button right? I guess you all should quit now for this game is like wow. 0_0 And I thought I left most of these types of replies in the wow forum. :P

You do realize that since you have to hold it down that nullifies it from being automatic right?

Venge, you left out that you also have to target still, not just hold it down and stand in one place while the mob gets behind you and proceeds to own your ass while you're holding down the "auto attack" (lulz) swinging at the air in front of you while standing in one spot......

;)

Yep that too.

To clarify this, he meant auto fire, not auto attack. And for the record Zep, auto attack is completely different which is why people here are so against it. Auto attack in mmo standards is like how WoW or Aion handle combat where you right click on the target and your character keeps attacking with no more mouse clicks based on the attack speed of your weapon. Auto fire is just holding down the mouse button to keep firing, a mechanic that is in nearly all fps games.

Any game that makes you click and click and click just to auto attack is a big NO in my book. I feel MMO's should look in to making games have less clicking not more. I got carpal tunnel once and find myself looking at games that have a design that tries to cut down on the clicking. Do you feel the MMO industry should be looking in to this more? Anyway I wanted to play this game and find I just can't handle all the clicking. :(

This is not WoW.  If you want to play a lazy mindless game that takes no skill or thought to play go back to wow. Fallen earth is good how it is and making peopel click to shoot and click to attack is a very good thing.

So stop crying about it

This post cracks me up. Like not having auto attack adds skill to the game.

It does add an element of skill to the game, because regardless of whether you can hold the button down or not, you still need to aim accurately in order to hit anything.

 

Let's not kid ourselves here.  While having to aim and hit/click something requires just a smidgen of skill more then auto attack, it really boils down to the skill of your computer and how 'up to date' the computers hardware is. 

Having said that, I agree that not all games need to be the same, and FE is doing a good job in keeping themselves separate from the competition in that aspect.

Yeah, I think skill may be overstating it a bit.

It requires a bit more attentiveness, more than anything.  There really isn't a whole lot of skill required to do either. 

 Auto attack is BORING. Since played Age of Conan and Fallen Earth, can't play games with auto attack. Stopped Lotro (even i'm a fan of tolkien's universe) because fights are simply repetitive and boring. Can only play games like DAOC or Vanguard for other reasons (DAOC: greatest Rvr and vanguard for diplomacy and craft) or Eve (economy strategy...)

WWIIIONLINE is another GREAT mmo"FPS" tactical online wargame.

seriously? less clicking? i mean why not say, you have a game that only makes you hit one button every minute or every 5 minutes, or every hour. i mean the less involed you are in the 'Clicking' the more it is like a movie during combat. and i am guessing you also dont realize that this is a shooter mmo, even melee needs to swing in the circle to hit. so honestly, you want to change the whole game play, one of their main themes cause you cant click 3 time to kill something instead of once? you are starting to sound like a SWG developer.

This game has auto attack via user input.
