in the past i used to access the quickbar via the number keys and the specific action via F keys.
now it is no more possible to do the change between F and numbers... very sucky lol i act like a newb when trying to change weaps
pls MA give us the option to toggle numbers/ F keys like in the past
FFS MA WTF is so hard about offering the same option that we had before, did you not think anyone used the F key maps instead of the number keys ?
I messed around with that stupid kb map thing for about 45 minutes and then finally got my F keys to work ( sort of ). That's 45 minutes that I would have preferred to have been hunting, which is what I logged in for in the first place.
Then I teamed up and we went to collect the tp's and go hunt. We got to my first tp , and we all crashed. When I came back, guess what. it was all back to how it started before I did all the editing
So now I don't have time to mess around with it again for another 45 minutes so I go try to hunt with the change. Of course I die because I keep hitting the wrong damn keys and you know that didn't make me happy.
So, we finish our hunting. That evening, I log back in to see if I can set the keys and relog to set them as is out workaround for the stupid QB bug that has apparently not gone away.
So, I set the " * " map with the equipment I want on the F keys and then set the number keys to map to the different kb maps 1 through 9. After I get that all done. I try to use it, and realize that since there is only one " * " map, even though I can switch to another map using the number keys, the F Keys won't change now. In other words, I can only have one QB map for my F keys, when I am so used to having multiple QB's. So now clock about 2 hours fucking with this stupid kb map shit and now I'm really pissed off
In addition the person that I really wanted to play with started trying to edit hers and crashed, but her av was stuck online for about an hour after that and she could not log in because it said she was already logged in, and I could see her logged in. She gave up in disgust and called it a nite. Good thing we have msn as a back up for when PE is fucked up. Needless to say, not a good first day from that perspective.
Of course, the option everyone says is, why don't you just use the new method ?
...
Why the hell should I have to change how I have been playing for over a year and a half because MA decided to change how the interface works ???
Why the hell can't they understand that some people like to do things the way they been doing it and don't want that shit changed. Sure, go ahead and offer the fancy stuff for people that wants to change it, but don't eleminate the ability for people to keep it the way they like it when you make those changes, that's just insane.
Can you tell I'm not happy with this new interface...
And Laggggggggggggggg........
WTF MA, you introduce new areas with more lagg then the old areas each time you do it. How is that possible that you introduce new stuff that works worse then the old stuff ? All the money your making and you can't find a way to fix the damn lag on Amethera ??? WTF is wrong with you...
...
OK, with that said, and so this isn't a complete bitching response. I will say, I had a lot of fun hunting with Duke and Ben yesterday, despite the stupid kb map shit and the insane amount of lag in those new areas. We hunted all the new mobs and got a hof and a couple globals, yaay finally some fun.
I really liked the Phasm's. Hunting there reminded me of really hunting, like I used to do in the snowy mountains in Idaho. They seem to hit and have the same amount of health as necu wich is something else I like to hunt.
I heard some people say that they are too hard to see in the landscape. I agree it is hard, but that kind of added to the realism for me, most animals in woodlands are well camoflauged and have to be hunted , and irl you don't have a radar to help
Overall, i give a grade D for this VU. This is not convincing me to stay here. Its nice to have some new territory and mobs, but it was pretty much ruined by the fact that my interface to that new content was totally FUBAR with these new interface changes and the lag.
) but i'm gonna be as mixed up as u i guess since i used the same settings...come on MA bring back the option plzzzz ... xcept that still look forward to see all the other changes/addons
