way to jump to the ignorant conclusion that this has anything to do with running around and not casting. that is not what it's about at all. when you are in your spot and throw the first 2 items in your combo and haven't moved during the process then get the

you cannot perform the action at this time
you cannot perform the action at this time
you cannot perform the action at this time
you cannot perform the action at this time
it goes off.

that is not anything to do with movement. that is bad coding and implementation. the problem is not the movement, but the bugs and errors that came along with it that should have been fixed before it was put in. yes, they added a work around for the issue(/facetarget), but a work around for a bad game design is still a bad game design regardless.

you sit here and say there's nothing wrong and then say it will be fixed in 2.0..... kind of an ignorant and hypocritical statement because if nothing is wrong then there is nothing to fix.

Truthfully I have no idea what you are talking about. If I stand still and cast...i cast. If I move and try to cast too early, I dont cast. I cannot, for the life of me, understand the problem you are having because its never happened to me or anyone I know. Yes it is ignorant, but you can't really blame me for my ignorance..its never happened, ever. I had NO idea it was even a problem besides the select *few* in this thread. All I can say is, ask ppl who dont have the problem what they are doing differently. Your game isnt coded any different than the next guy's game, so it really must be a user-related error.

I know based on the suggestions in this thread that /facetarget is a solution. Try it. If it still doesn't work, come back and ask for help. This is not a universal problem *obviously* so it is up to you to decide where the problem is occurring. I dont know how you play, what buttons you press, when you press them; the more details you give and the less insults you dish out, the better able you are to solve your issue.

And it was released when it was to give ppl a chance to get used to it. If they waited until 2.0, you'd all be raging and QQ'ing about the sudden change. It was implemented for your benefit, so you had plenty of time to get used to the new mechanic before having to deal with it in 2.0. Its like ppl forget that 1.xx is still a "development" stage. Its where you get to play exclusive content, test upcoming changes, and give feedback. There are obvious server limitations so the 1.xx version cannot match the 2.0 version in terms of smoothness and reliability. Why would they waste resources making it perfect for 1.xx when its already flawless in 2.0. 1.xx is not the finished product, and is being scrapped anyway.

Again, I have no idea what the problem is, so I suggest asking around and figuring out what you're doing wrong. Cuz you are surely doing *something* wrong...or your game just happens to act differently than everyone else's.

Failure to use this solution is just failure on your part. Don't blame a game for your incompetence. If you can't adapt, play something expendable like a melee dps. At least that way your party wont be hurt

in this post you come in and call people incompetent because they have an issue and then have the nerve to tell them not to respond to you.

I dont know how you play, what buttons you press, when you press them; the more details you give and the less insults you dish out, the better able you are to solve your issue.

if you don't have the information then you should have kept your mouth shut the first time. you call others out without any information and then get defensive when they respond. too bad.

remember i wasn't the one that came in and started the insults about people being incompetent and that those people are the problem and not the game without any facts to back up that claim. don't try to act high and mighty because i responded with just as much rudeness as you entered the thread. if you come in and start with pure garbage directed at others expect it sent back your way.

All I know is

fact: /facetarget is an easy easy solution. First line in your macro completely solves the problem. Not hard lol. Doesnt even require thought on your part.

If you have to use macros to get around problems with a game's controls, that should tell you immediately that there is something inherently broken with the system.

What is there to get used to? I have yet to have a problem with my casting and i've been using a controller since Beta.

from the bug fix patch notes. i guess there were issues and if you look back those are some of the issues that were brought up here. i guess i didn't have to show proof to anyone here since se themselves knew there were issues. too bad certain people that thought they knew everything undoubtedly didn't do a good enough q&a on their classes to find the issues.

*An issue wherein the casting gauge would disappear if players cast several spells in succession.
*An issue wherein the recast timer for actions was not functioning as intended.

this gets the movement cancel alot closer to being correct.
