Controller becoming unresponsive periodically

[necrosis]

I've even attempted to play with a keyboard and mouse which, for me, is exceptionally difficult due to the sheer amount of commands I have to have at the ready at any given time.

So you are mad that you have to do something to play the game? I don't even... huh?

It's pretty clear from Hakuro's (and everyone else's) responses on this thread that the issue is that the way we choose to play the game (i.e. with a gamepad) doesn't work correctly and no one can tell us why or how to fix it. That's been brought up in every single post, and not a single one has complained about "having to do something" to play the game - we've been trying to "do something" and due to technical issues we cannot. Reading without being ignorant might help clear up the whole "I don't even.. huh?" thing.

@ Hakuro and crc: Thanks for the ideas. I'll try them out tonight and get back to you.

I was not born with hands that allow me to use the Ctrl+Num commands. That paired with the fact that my right hand is on my mouse at all times, I figure that, if I use a keyboard and mouse, I only have access to six of my hotkeys at any given time using a keyboard and mouse while still retaining full movement. As I play a MNK, full movement is absolutely mandatory.

On a gamepad, that number rises from six to sixteen with full movement AND reduces screen clutter.

Logically speaking, which would you prefer?

And while I'm here, I should mention that I STILL have not had problems with my controller being unresponsive after the port forwarding issue, so I think my issue has been completely solved. crc, Angeles, if you guys could post confirming or denying whether the solution fixed for you, then that might help to finally nip this issue in the bud!

@Hakuro, that's great to hear! The most frustrating part of this issue has been not knowing if I've actually fixed anything or if it's just decided to work for a while, so I'm optimistic (especially considering that your fix came from the support center itself). I'll set the port forwards now and get back to everyone once I'm able to take it for a test drive.

@Necrosis: I want to say that I was a little bit hostile in my response to you and I apologize for saying you were "ignorant". I've been frustrated greatly by this issue but it doesn't justify being rude.
