.3 Second Positional Update Delay (Requesting Dev Response)

Since discussion on this topic moved to this thread, I'm reposting my last reply from the former thread.

It's all about priorities.
Isn't it obvious that they do not care for responsiveness or fluidity in their game?
Every UI action has lag built into it, combat mechanics have lag built into it (animation delays, skill effects applying after animation ends etc.)

SE simply does not care about this that much, control is not king here. They think people can live with it, because it is a matter of "taste". And they are right, there are plenty of clueless people, who never had better experience in mmorpg, and don't know what we are talking about. And those who do, will be back on their epic quest, to find another wow killer, soon enough. Wildstar next in line.

I think you'd literally have to be living under a rock to not know what a modern MMORPG control feels like. Sometimes it feels to me that none of the devs ever played a MMORPG besides FF11 which is why they thought this control is okay. Heck they didn't even see the need to put in the ability to jump in 1.0.
