Who else absolutely hates...

What about the damn double letter when using chat-specific keyboard..

I also hate macros on the principle that I should not have to input computer code in order to make a game run smoother. That is the job of the game programers and developers.

If I can play 7+ jobs/classes on one character, then I should have 7+ equipment set screens to easily toggle through.

As for targeting, if there is a macro that works great then that macro should be hard-coded into the game by the developers...not by me.

It's the principle of lazy programming that bothers me. "Allow the players to choose their playstyle" often seems like an excuse rather than a feature.

This ^ 100 times this.

As far as I recall targeting in XI is the same as XIV, it targets left to right... regardless of distance however far.

The pointer in XI is much more clear which object you are targeting in XI though, better than both of the 2 display options XIV gives you. The circle is difficult to figure out exactly which target you are on, and the above arrow sits sooo high above your target its either off screen or too high above the target its on to usually tell exactly whom you have targeted.

As in XI there are generally 2 options to target better... pre-click someone to the left of where you assume the target you want will be (so that left->right tabbing is quicker) or always position yourself to F8 will get whom you want.

F8 is still the default to target closest npc in ffxiv. but an /assist command would be nice.

I hate the new functionality of 'change view'. Where it used to switch between target centered and player centered, it's now 3rd person and 1st person.

Seriously, who plays an MMO 1st person view?

this is big issue that needs to be addressed, also we need the option to remove our own name to make mouse targeting better.

You can do this, but its all or none. No in-between of just removing your own name.

i find it all quite easy to target... i use the up and down arrows to target party members ez pz. and i just use F8 to target nearest npc and left and right arrows to scroll through enemies

And anyway, why should good players be segregated from bad players, not by skill, but by which macros they use?

Bad game design, that.

Which double letter? And why do you using chat-specific keyboard? I have it off.

Which new functionality of 'change view'? The functionality is the same as in the beta and FF XI. Maybe you need to try press c (target lock) instead of v (change view)

I use a controller, so I'm afraid I'm not familiar with this issue.

This still happens with a controller.
