    Suggestion for new PS3 HotBar Please.

    Ok this is what we have


    MAKE IT SO WE HAVE THE OPTION LIKE PC USERS.

    This is what we need PS3 Hotbar to look like It needs to be so when we hold L2 we have access to line 1 and R2 line 2 and then the directional pad lets us move left or right and X to chose the skill we want to use. OR have it so when we hold L2+R2 at the same time pops up another set of skills.


    I'm sorry but if a change doesn't happen to the Hotbar I don't think I can keep playing this game. PC users are far superior in combat than we are, I have remembered where every skill I need to use is but sometimes in the heat of battle its hard to switch pages. I know this can be done because FFXI lets you use macros in the same way. At the very least it could be an option to use.

    Just terrible. Yikes.

    Also, PC users are in no way superior in combat to me. To -you- maybe. Please speak for yourself and don't group the rest of us with you. You might be bad, but I'm not. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but you asked for it by making blanket statements about all PS3 users.

    Practice. Muscle memory will form and you'll get faster with your keybinds.
    I know where my skills are that's not the problem it having to many damn skills to use and switching hotbars is the part I don't like, maybe playing FFXI for 8years I'm too use to it. But they could have the option like I said so we could choose, PC users get to choose why cant PS3 users. Also I never said I was bad or sucked at my job I just don't like doing intense battles with this set up.

    Also @ Ryzaerian Looking at you character your only level 31 so judging by that alone tells me you haven't played a level 50 dungeon like Amdapor Keep, also you do not yet have enough skills either from your main job or any cross class skills yet to tell me that PC users are not superior to you. IDC who you are PC users will always be superior. So when you are using around 30 skills you might change your mind.


    This is from another thread he's not talking about what I wrote but his Number 2. is also another great option that if we had I could live with.

    1. I am not a fan of moving onto the next target with a controller. I find that the game does not usually select the next closest enemy but might highlight another player instead. This can be annoying in combat but solved easily by when I press "tab" on my keyboard. Is there actually a way to target the next enemy with just a controller? I am accepting that I might just be doing something wrong.

    2. I kind of wish pushing R2 and L2 at the same time would bring up a third option of abilities.

    Minor things, nothing major.

    Yes add the option to use it PC users get to pick which they want why cant PS3 users? If you want to use it use, if you don't then don't, its simple but we should have the option to use it.
