Due to the global cool down you can get to your next ability in swtor before it ends quite easily with a mouse making keybinds almost pointless. You can move by wsad and bind strafe to q and e and click away with teh mouse for the rest of it and be at zero competitive disadvantage in swtor. In daoc I didn't click and relied on binds. In wow I used binds, in eq2 i didn't play on a pvp server so I totally clicked that game away.

I am fairly certain I am not going to play this game, but if i do, and if it does really matter binding is easy and with teh limited skill bars you have its going to be fairly easy to pick up, the OPs elitist sentiment is just self agrandizing blather, if the game is good people will play and if playing means taking the couple days to get used to using some binds, people will do it, as a guy who's jumped back and forth it isn't that hard and just because you do it doesn't make you "l33t dood".

 

Wrong.  Do you want proof?  Try keybinding for once.  In Tor, change a and d to strafe, unbind 'turn left' and 'turn right'.  Now you can use e and q for your first two keybinds.  Then for your next two most used abilities use shift + q and shift + e.  That's four skills you can hit very easily.  You can then go on to use r, shift + r, f, shift + f, x, shift + x, z, and shift + z.  That's 12 abilities keybound, with just they keys around w, a, s, and d.  1 through 3 can also be used as they are esy to hit.  If you need more keybinds, you can start  using ctrl or alt plus any of the letters that are already bound. 

 

Once you start playing with keybinds, you never go back.  Technically you could hit a spell with a mouse every global, but it doesn't happen.  You take time to pick which ability to use, plus time to use your eyes and direct the pointer to the skill, then you have to hit it.  This takes your awareness away from what is going on around you, and is never as quick as keybinds.  With a keybinding setup your finger is basically already on the spell once the global cooldown is up.  You can concentrate on movement and positioning at all times.  The mouse should only be used for turning the camera and targeting (tab targetting in pvp is.......rofl).  

 

Keyboard turning and spell clicking are for the bads.  If you are going to keep playing like this, I highly suggest you keep playing TOR.  At least there you can come across kids playing their first mmo, and have a chance at beating them...lol.  

I can tell by your post this matters alot to you. It is a video game. It mattes less than how many times a day you take a dump, and that's the truth. Want me to prove you're wrong? Easy, in swtor you're following a rotation, you know what your next attack is as soon as you clicked the first one, and its probably on your bar  in order of your rotation, so with the cool down those of us with above a 5 IQ can get to our next ability without having to really think about it.  I've played games where keybinding really mattered, DAOC was one, WoW was one, swtor is not one of those games. I know how, just don't need to on swtor. I played about 8 wzs tonight and never fnished outside of the top 3 in medals or dps and the only keys I have bound are strafe on this game because you just don't need to bother with the rest of them. I probably got out of the habit when I played eq2 if I were to play gw2 and decided that I needed to do it to compete I am pretty sure it'd take me all over 2 hours to get back in the habit.

I've seen dudes that keybind that suck badly because their target selection is all wrong and they don't know how to play objectives, have a couple in my guild like that, but you know what, at the end of the day it just doesn't matter.....video....game..........Judging from your post you need to go outside more. LOL(look I can laugh at my own jokes too)

"Keyboard turning and spell clicking are for the bads.  If you are going to keep playing like this, I highly suggest you keep playing TOR.  At least there you can come across kids playing their first mmo, and have a chance at beating them...lol.  "

i think the only mmo ive ever played that i havent fully used keybinds in,was sw tor.and thats because i guess some genius at bioware thought it was a good idea to cram a truckload of skills in the game and not put macros in

i mean i could understand there stance on macros if the game didnt have a boatload of abilities in it.but it does,so i dont get why there so against macros

They probably read post like those of the OP and didn't want to cater to l33t kids. :)

Reminds me of high school with some of these guys, i'll never understand it, these games are about escapism and recreation for me, not epeen stroking.

Those of you who KEYBOARD TURN AND CLICK THEIR ABILITIES are going to be destroyed. Absolutely 100 percent owned. And there is no way you can tell me otherwise.  This combat is going to weed out the clickers from the keybinders.

 

So for all you 'clickers' out there, if your thinking about playing GW2, I would advise you to learn keybinding. The sooner the better...........

 

:)

 

 

 

EDIT: Of course im referring to PVP... pve, well, /shrug....But pvp? You are deadmeat......

I wouldn't say they will be destroyed.  It's just going to help them get away from that playstyle.  If they stick with it.  I was a hybrid clicker keyboard mover up to about 2 months ago.  I've been trying to train myself to hit the hot keys without clicking on them on screen.  It still feels off, but games like Tera and now GW2 are really helping me learn it and get it down.  Felt much more comfortable trying to learn it in GW2 then I do in Rift or WoW.  

 

Believe me, they will be eaten alive. After an hour of battlegrounds being on the bottom of the food chain, they are going to /uninstall faster then anything...

 

Also, im actually glad for you that your learning keybinding. Props to you good sir..For a couple of years in another mmo, I did only that. God was I bad, lmao...

Why would this make you happy? Less people to play with is a bad thing. Its really sort of a sad elitist sentiment your projecting right now, you should re-evaluate your life and what is and isn't actually important. Truth;  being good at an mmo means absolutely nothing.

i guess it depends on the people.if its like the star wars the old republic official forum general discussion  type people.then gw2 is better off with them uninstalling anyway

and being good at an mmo doesnt mean anything.especially when mmos nowadays are made for the casuals,which is why im gonna laugh so hard if gw2 ends up flopping.or they get rid of there dodge system,if i know anything about casuals,its they arent really known for adapating to hard things,and coming from an mmo with the mindset of "stand there,smash 5 keybinds.win"to "oh god,i actually have to think in combat now"is probably going to end up with eather

1.casuals crying everyday about it being to hard to figure out

2.casuals get tired of crying,and make there obligitory "im unsubbing because of dodge"post and arenanet will cave and get rid of it

I don't even know why I care or bothered to respond, the cash shop has me so spooked that I'll likely skip this title. I think the sentiment and that particular player type is what's ruining mmos in my mind and thus I am compelled to comment.

We will see, I know someone that is a clicker/turner and despite that, they are usually atop the board (or very close to it) in PvP in every MMO I have seen them in....and I am not convienced that everyone that isn't a clicker/turner is good....So I don't put much stock in this prediction.
 
I am not a clicker/turner, just not convienced by absolute statements, when I see otherwise all the time.

I agree. I click skills quite a lot, and while I obviously wasn't the highest ranked player in WoW when I played it, I was pretty good at my job because. of. MACROS.

I don't know whether they've been implemented into GW2, but even an idiot should be able to formulate a skill macro as long as they have a gaming keyboard. There's no need to have ADHD and pro-reflexes if you've bound your rotation to a couple of buttons. Of course, if that doesn't work, there's always the fact that A HUGE NUMBER OF THE SKILLS ARE AIMED.

It's the main reason behind ArenaNet's healing strategy. Nearly all skills that can heal or do AoE damage are aimed using the mouse (as far as I'm aware). And besides, I don't really have the patience or care enough to even try at becoming a high-ranked PvP player. It's honestly not worth my limited playtime to devote my online existence to statistics and rankings. I'll PvP when I want to play some fun PvP, and I'll die when I die. Tough for me that I'm not a hardcore pro.

It certainly won't drive me to uninstall. Regardless of the trolls that have been all over these forums the past couple of days, I am of a firm belief that the people who've had the time to post were obviously not good critics. A good critic uses all the time available to play the game until he has reached a conclusion (ie the WHOLE weekend). I have a firm belief that I will enjoy all aspects of the game, and my mouse playstyle certainly won't affect my enjoyment.

(PS: Not 100% sure about whether a large amount of skills are aimed. If not, then good for you, you get a bonus point. But I don't particularly care.)

you do relize the cash shop in gw2 is only going to sell like cosmetic items right.im more concerned about the dodge system and how that sounds more then the cash shop

but i dont know,i heard alot of skills have like.animations you can clearly see and theres ground effects so it sounds kinda like it would be an obvious thing to know when you need to use it

Well, before the cash shop scared me off due to the beta leak a few weeks back I did a good bit of research. You expressed concern in a previous post that the "casuals" would whine and get the dodge mechanic removed, from what I understand that won't be possible, dodge is central to game play for them as they have no dedicated healers, so it isn't really negotiable that it be removed, and were they to automate it the combat would likely become far too dumbed down to be enjoyable.

Being good at something means nothing? Thats your truth? Thats sad.........I feel sorry for you..........

 

And it  'making me happy'????!?!?  Dafuq????? 

 

Why is it considered to be  ELITIST to keybind? theres nothing hard about it.....I put a skill on the letter  G  and press it...........HOLY CRAP IM A MMO GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

considering how easy mmos have become.i dont really think bragging about being good at an mmo is really anything special

I wouldn't say they will be destroyed.  It's just going to help them get away from that playstyle.  If they stick with it.  I was a hybrid clicker keyboard mover up to about 2 months ago.  I've been trying to train myself to hit the hot keys without clicking on them on screen.  It still feels off, but games like Tera and now GW2 are really helping me learn it and get it down.  Felt much more comfortable trying to learn it in GW2 then I do in Rift or WoW.  

 

Believe me, they will be eaten alive. After an hour of battlegrounds being on the bottom of the food chain, they are going to /uninstall faster then anything...

 

Also, im actually glad for you that your learning keybinding. Props to you good sir..For a couple of years in another mmo, I did only that. God was I bad, lmao...

Why would this make you happy? Less people to play with is a bad thing. Its really sort of a sad elitist sentiment your projecting right now, you should re-evaluate your life and what is and isn't actually important. Truth;  being good at an mmo means absolutely nothing.

[mod edit]

No, being good at things that are actually important matters. Video games are an escape, mmos are an escape into a fantasy world, being good at it matters not at all. Being good at my career, being able to protect myself and my family, being able to spit some game, and articulate a cogent and rational thought are all examples of things that are actually important. Being able to strafe while pressing G that you might "wtfpwn a noob" is less important than what you're going to have for lunch tomorrow.

PS keybinding doesn't make you an elitist, believing that you are some how better than someone because you may or may not be better at a video game than they are is the worst sort of faux elitism.[mod edit]

 The type of play in GW2 is very unforgiving. It demands attention and on the fly changes while constantly moving and dodging.

 

Those of you who KEYBOARD TURN AND CLICK THEIR ABILITIES are going to be destroyed. Absolutely 100 percent owned. And there is no way you can tell me otherwise.  This combat is going to weed out the clickers from the keybinders.

 

So for all you 'clickers' out there, if your thinking about playing GW2, I would advise you to learn keybinding. The sooner the better...........

Being good at something means nothing? Thats your truth? Thats sad.........I feel sorry for you..........

 

And it  'making me happy'????!?!?  Dafuq????? 

 

Why is it considered to be  ELITIST to keybind? theres nothing hard about it.....I put a skill on the letter  G  and press it...........HOLY CRAP IM A MMO GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is just my opinion, but it is my belief that people like you are why the genre has gone to shite. 

 

Lol, silly...........
