QOL Adjustments this Game DESPERATELY NEEDS

[Pterois]

i really don't understand why... "can't because of PS3" is still a thing.

Y'all would really hinder the best up and coming MMOs and quite possibly ONE OF the best MMOs for this reason? Let me purpose this... one day this will not be a thing... one day you will not be able to say this... so how about we just start planning for this to not be in the way huh???

Someone already said it. PS3 user... "You have reached the maximum allowable UI items to be displayed." no more excesses!

[Bixby]

Disagree with the above completely. As a tank I find them very useful.

I'm not sure why "Levequest Complete" is any more useful to a tank than anyone else, but the other two, fair enough. If it's the choice between a party TP display and any of those things, though, I'd still take the party TP display.

As there may be more actions that directly affect the TP of other players introduced in the future, the dev. team would like to work on adding in a display for party member TP. However, there is a limit to the number of items that can be displayed on the screen at the same time, so we have considered swapping the MP bar to instead show the TP bar.

In doing so, we would then be required to introduce a feature that will allow players to switch the display between TP and MP smoothly, even during battle. We would appreciate your patience while the development team continues to research if and how to efficiently display TP bars for all party members. We’ll be sure to share any updates we have on this in the future.

What about changing the color of the part members name tag in the party list, yellow if low on TP, violet if low on MP, Red when low on HP.

Hm, not keen on this... what counts as 'low' may be TOO low to my liking. And what if the character is low on more than one at a time? :/

maybt my vision is biaised, but really, why not display, TP for the classes that use a lot of TP more then MP, and MP for the classes that typically need MP more then TP ? that way you wont need to display anymore just the one that each classes use the most.

I healer, I dont care about TP much, but MP on the other hand, is vital for me to see that. TP for tanks is VERY important much more then MP, therefore showing the TP bar for them seems much more useful then the MP bar.

Just me though and maybe I see it all wrong

There was one point back in first coil where I as warrior needed a few moments of Mana song just to get enough MP to flash the last set of adds since the 360 degree attack was more effective for the initial hate grab and gathering the mobs than overpower. Once I had them flashed I'd pull back and begin overpower, but the point is there are moments where it's helpful to know what a tanks Mana is at. Few and far between to be sure though.

Included that one by accident. Was mainly targeting the first two, but to be fair what does Levequest Complete have anything to do with the kind of group content being mentioned in this thread? Doesn't seem like that would be a big deal either way.

Those data points are incredibly useful and necessary for someone tanking and trying to control the fight whereas seeing the parties TP would literally be useless information. I'd rather they change nothing at all than to take away those displays to add useless TP information. Think of your tanks and not just your fists. You aren't the only person using the UI. Your context isn't the only one.

People need to stop blaming the lack of UI features on "PS3 limitations". We do not and have not had the same UI.

BRD needs to see both. Instead of being able to switch, why not make the bars smaller so all three can be there?
