    Yup your constant trolling keeps these mods at work night and day. You should be proud.
     thats my job, see my Avatar?
    The more and more I read this thread the more and more I feel like re-subbing. God help me.

    I did and had a blast for about 2 hours. After that, it got old again fast.

    They're going to have to work harder than this to get my money back.

    It sounds like it's a marked improvement of the NGE, but...

    No dice.

    is there a closest enemy target (tab just cycles outward right?), is there a called target option for pvp groups?

    So your group can target an enemy and fire, time spikes, call runners, healers, weak targets?  I find that rather important of a feature...

    Just thought I'd ask...

    I already am guessing no

    You better watch out.  They might quote that and put it on the SWG: Complete box.

    They put /assist back in, which when used, make you attack the same mob as the friendly you just used /assist on. Loads of bitching about it on the forums from the NGE fanbois.

    You know what I don't get? It's cool to love FPSs, I love them, and I love MMORPGs too. However, to even say you prefer manual targeting in this game over auto-attack is an insult to all FPS games out there. The sad thing is there are people in SWG that think they are FPS kings because they're level 90. ROFL! But then they probably haven't logged in to a UT or CS server in.. well in ever. Dorks. By the way, did you know a dork is the name for a whale penis?

    Ok other then the stupid blue disk pointer and the fact that I have to turn on attack each time I change targets to get it to start shooting it works like before now.

    They went about it the most backward way possible and they key bindings they chose for it blow but I know how to set it now.

    Blaster shots now fire for max distance no matter how close your target is, was it always like that and I never noticed or is that a bug?

    My mob is 2 feet from me and I am firing off into the sunset...

    Ya but does it function and make you start auto-attacking? I freaking hated soe assist.  You had to click on your friend then do /assist and with an 8 skill bar you dont really have room for an assist taking up room do you?  I prefer the GW method of Ctrl+T to call a target. Group mates can then hit the C key (Called Target) then spacebar (attack) or special number to attack the target.  Can you set up the bindings to function like this?

    It makes switching callers overly difficult.  I dont see any substance to pvp yet as far as builds and strategy goes.

    Hey, improvement.

    This was all well and done right up until NGE.

    Then its gone for 7-10 months.

    Then it's brought back.

    Now it takes 3 clicks to activate, and you have what, 5 specials to choose from?

    This. Is. Pathetic.

    While all other games aim for simplifications of interface, SWG goes on a crusade to provide worst possible user experience. And to top it off, I hear it's even tied to the ~ key. What happens to the radial? And why even bother doing something like that?

    wow, I'm out of the loop! Did they really fix that permanently?  No more aiming??  fine, I dind't want to but here's a rare 

    who knows, maybe one day this game might be worth my money all over again.

    It's not too hard to assign it to a key if you'd rather that then having to type /assist.  Make a new macro with just /assist; in the body.  Then open up your keymap options, click custom and look for the new assist macro you made and assign it to a key that you like.
