Melee while casting?

Circle peg, square hole. That's what I see with everyone's responses (except a few people trying desperately to educate)
You give them more credit to have better code? This is a game designed 10 years ago, with PS2 coding in mind. It doesn't matter if you think it SHOULD be able to be changed, it CANT.

Stop pulling the RL card please, it degrades the entire thread. People obviously wouldnt be poasting if they had no programming experience at all (as misguided as some of the posts are). However what I am noticing is some people are confusing vanilla, classroom programming to high end MMO game engines.

And if all the logic in the world doesn't convince you, how about "SE just doesn't give a shit", because that would probably be the answer if it was possible.

Sorry, but coding doesn't mold over like a loaf of bread. Languages come and go in part due to the technology they're built for, sure, but all have their foundations in mathematics and logic. Two plus two does not equal five in Japan, much as we sometimes wonder what the devs are thinking. Same goes from PASCAL to C++. MMOs are, rather simply, graphical MUDs. These existed long before PS2s and hardly perform advanced scientific calculations, even on a mass scale. And even then, this function has nothing to do directly with the PS2's limitations. So, yeah, we get it, you're mad we're not rolling over for your hero's gospel. Evil retard meleeRDMs blahblahblah ruining FFXI.

This is what is generally referred to as "having no experience".
