What is this talk about strategy and choices? are you guys serious? Please, PLEASE don't believe this nonsense they are feeding you, and know this :

Longer global cool downs = less "abilities" sent to the servers per second, = LESS BANDWIDTH = CHEAPER COST

There is no way in hell that ANY gamer would take 2.5 seconds to decide what to do next with a class he spent months playing

This ridiculously long global cool down is a very common way for a company to lower bandwidth costs, its like when you go to a website and click refresh many times, some websites ask you to wait 15 seconds

of course, in a website its acceptable, but in a "fast paced mmorpg" its not.

If you want to be PRO long GCD, its your business, but DON'T repeat what the director said a while back " The long GCD is there because of strategy and decision making " because that excuse is just a lie to provide you with a low quality service..
