[Devs] 3x Skill bars in 2.0

[Synthesis]

Could you implent feature to see option-able 1-3 bars at once for 2.0 at least ?

that all 3 bars will be visible and we can see all (and select) from these 30 skills at one time instead of pressing up/down. Its really annoying.

I still see 1 skill bar active at the time on 2.0 screen, while 2nd smaller bar is the next one to change after pressing up key ?

Dont repeat same mistake from here.

I'm not trolling at all, but what do you mean? Like, what are you arguing for/against? It's surprisingly super unclear (for me).

3. On the concept screenshot of the UI, the party unit frames and general UI seem vastly improved. However there are two glaring features that seem to be missing. One, the multiple action bars on screen at all times seems to have been forgotten, and two, the party unit frames have very abstract buff/debuffs. Timers on the unit frames are a welcome sight, but aside from protect and shell, I cannot differentiate anything about the buffs/debuffs. Will they be hoverable with tooltip information? What happened with showing multiple action bars on the screen at one time? Toggling the action bar is incredibly inefficient for PC users.

Our recently released UI screenshot is simply a representation of the default settings. It would have been possible to display multiple action bars, but we felt that doing so would take up too much screen space and hide parts of the characters. As such, we only displayed one action bar. Also, a help pop up will be displayed when you mouseover the icons. This function has been implemented in the current client and is pending text entry. Thus, you will not have to wait until 2.0, as we are planning a patch 1.20 or 1.20a release. Buffs/debuffs will also be easier to understand.

They already talked about this and the whole UI will be able to be modded. So, if you don't like the look when 2.0 is out code a new one...or wait for someone to bust one out after 2.0 is released.

Frankly, what's the point?...it's not really a mouse-click game anyways. Most people who play that way play horrid anyways...

LOL it's guna be come 2.0, the whole point of the new UI is to allow for mouse click and drag and drop.

lol yeah mouse players are so duuuumb!!!111

oh wait, that's 99% of PC gamers out there

I only ever use the mouse for quick enemy targeting and still would like it because:

1- The damn action bar keeps losing focus.
2- I can't see recast timers for other bars.
3- It's 2011

3- It's 2011

It's 2011 and some of the most popular games are indie games that aren't even more advanced than games that were released back in the late 90s by commercial companies.

Why do you people think "it's xxxx year" is a valid argument for anything?

Grats on tring to use the indie retro wave to fail to justify the game's poopy UI.

I am sure that every game from now on should be judged against games that emulate (now) outdated consoles on purpose.


Failure.
