Showing TP for Party?

[thunderbreak]

Nothing about new players.

It is about PS3 limitation and/or screen size limitation

Where did they say that? I have never seen such a response. The only response I have seen is the one saying how they can only display so many HUD elements at once, which is true, they already have to remove 2 elements when you focus target on PS3. Granted, this is a PS3 only problem, but they cannot add this to the other platforms because of the gameplay advantage associated with it.

They say that they are concerned that it would confuse new players, that they are considering it but the complexity of the UI also has to be taken into consideration.

I'd imagine that this is something that will be addressed right after we get addons enabled.

Devs says the TP bar will confuse the new players lol.

I get really sick and tired of responses like this. I really do. They said this before on multiple occasions.
Please stop treating us all like kids. Most of us have a job, family and kids. I think we're smart of enough
to understand what the hell colours are suppose to mean in a game. Jesus Christ.
Newbies will eventually learn this game...I mean it's pretty much "Kiddies first game anyways"
Dumbing it down anymore than it is I will feel like they think we're fetus's.

PS3 limitations.

[Mykll]

Supposedly PS3 limitations. Yet we have that useless bar above the group that tells us which stat is being buffed depending on who is in the group. And we get additional new UI things, like now the mob markers also show up on the enmity list. And a good number of little other things that have shown up since release. And, yet, we can't show TP? How are you able to add all these other UI additions to PS3 players?

This reminds me of their claim of running out of database storage or something, on why our armoire is limited. That is why more things are on the Salvage vendor. Ok, but, there STILL needs to be a check to see if your character sees specific items for purchase, JUST LIKE there is a check to see which items are in your armoire.

Doesn't completely make sense to me how we have no room for one thing but it seems like we have the exact same room for something else. For both the UI and storage options.

They can try making it where you can toggle between seeing other players Mp or Tp in the Character Configuration menu and the default being Mp.

As a paladin, it's probably more important to show my MP and not my TP. PLD TP is extremely easy to manage, as the only two situations that will run a PLD dry is: (1) party dps so low that you're falling asleep and the combo runs you dry; (2) having to keep stunning all the time. I can always just sit and do nothing once I have enough enmity and the TP recovers quickly. MP is not so. Without songs PLDs simply can't keep up mass pulling for long.

They don't want to players to see other party members TP bar. That's the reason. Simple as that. I think it's silly but what am I going to do? The PS3 has nothing to do with it. The party list works and looks exactly the same on the PS3.
