[dev1149] Please bring back the queuing of actions!

[Cicatriz]

I've gotten used to things post patch as a Conjurer, but it did take some getting used to. This is because the only way to efficiently know when you can start casting again back-to-back is to wait for the pop-up info as a signal. So if you start just a little early, you won't cast, and you will have to navigate the action bar again and recast on your target which takes an extra second or 2 with a controller, and those seconds are crucial sometimes.

I don't know why people wanted this removed. Can someone explain?

Mages really need this. :|

Before update 1.19, combat was fluid and fast, I could use an action and queue up my next ability… now combat is slow, choppy, and frustrating… I often find myself rapidly pressing the same button waiting for an action to go off,.. and staring at my action bar to make sure that it went off, rather than pay attention to the battle itself.

It’s terrible, before,.. if the tank died I could use chainspell and queue raise and it would execute that action asap and the tank would be up and ready to take over again, saving the whole battle from going downhill… now, I use chainspell and since raise doesn’t queue, the tank never gets raised and the whole party wipes… how is this fun?

Why would SE ever think this was a good idea is far beyond me… maybe it wouldn’t be so bad if there was no lag, but new flash! There is A LOT of lag. Seems like the majority of people like being able to queue actions up, so either SE should bring back queue, OR they should add an option in config to give the option to queue or not.

In my opinion, 1.19 was absolutely amazing! Except for getting rid of queue… this single change makes me want to smack my head against the wall several times and ask “WTF WERE THEY THINKING!?”… UGHH! anyways that’s my opinion :P

I normally do not post on the forums but I read this and thought to myself.... Brillant!!!

FFXIV TEAM PLEASE PLEASE READ THIS
give us the option next time you decide to do something like this

There are people on both sides of the fence some for getting rid of queue actions and some against it
the best way to allow people to play they way they want is to give them the option. This would not have been an issue if an option was implemented into the patch. Something simple like the targeting options just a yes or no button. We don't all have to agree on how we should play the game but we should be allowed the choice on how we "can" play.

Please bring the option of queue back
I am seriously begging right now... please!

I also hope they bring queuing back.

Since 1.19 went live we can select a cure and select a sub-target while still casting the previous spell -- but if we press to confirm the sub-target before the first spell completely finishes, it can take a second before we realize it didn't register.

Add to that the new beastmen strongholds like Zahar'ak where you sometimes have 30 players and monsters around, and it can be very hard to see if your character finished the previous spell.

Bump.
Please fix this!
It is so annoying!

The removal of queuing actions sucks horribly. At least let us have one action able to be in queue. I've died so many times because a heal wouldn't initiate. Especially, since Firm Conviction has been gimped; death is always imminent. It's even worse since since gnats and hedgemoles have increased their teleport/burrow rate. It's just too frustrating. And Siphon MP or TP on a KO'd target is barely even possible now.

Wait.... people complained about queuing? What is wrong with them? I don't think SE changed the queues based on those people complaining. Though, I still feel that it was a ridiculous mistake.

[Haku]

Can someone tell me if they fixed this in the 1.19a patch I left the game because of this and other reasons associated with the game but if they fixed this aspect of the game I would definitely think of coming back I just wanted confirmation if this part of the game was fixed or if it's still the same.

I read the patch notes but they are generalized with not specifics to this issue so I wanted to see if anyone could give me a heads of about this patch fixing this aspect of the game.

こんばんは。
Good Evening,

先行入力に関するたくさんのフィードバックありがとうございました。
Thanks for the many feedbacks regarding queue

皆さんのフィードバックを受け、開発チームで検討した結果、
パッチ1.20にて先行入力を再実装することになりました。
After receiving everyone's feedbacks, and result of dev team checking into this.
They will re-release the action queue system back in 1.20.

なお、先行入力を使用するかどうかはテキストコマンドでON/OFFの切り替えもできるようになりますので、
皆さんのバトルスタイルや好みに応じて選択していただければと思います。
Now this time you will be able to turn on/off using text command to use or not use the action queue so please use this depending on how you like, or your battle style.
