    As I'll keep saying, this is a PC-related problem because default controller drivers, DirectInput specifically, treat Triggers as a Single Axis. I am fully aware that when using XInput, or the PlayStation 3 equivalent of such drivers, triggers are able to be used independently. A fix to one platform does not fix the other.

    Yeah I thought they said they were gonna add this function actually. I was wondering why it wasn't in the game yet.

    What the hell are you talking about? Seriously. You make no sense at all. The point here is to make the game more comfortable for pad users. It is entirely possible on the PS3... and from what you're saying, it is possible on the PC with the use of a 3rd party program. Which is mostly irrelevant because the majority of PC users are playing with mouse and keyboard. So why are you even arguing? What is your point? That PC players would have to download a 3rd party program to make use of this? Because of that, this feature shouldn't be added?

    All I'm saying, is that I believe it to be highly unlikely that Square Enix would implement a feature in the game that is not natively available to all users. I play on the PC using a gamepad occasionally and am in full support of this feature. I'm simply noting my speculation on this feature being implemented in the near future.

    That's hardly a good criteria for what should and shouldn't be added, seeing as PC users already have access to an interface that PS3 users do not.

    Hmmm I'm happy with having a crossbar set for combat only(unsheated weapon) and sheated weapon set. Atm have 2 in the combat set and I can easily rotate between them without much of a problem of overshooting them. Though I could see a third one being good as well. Though the GUI would then be rather clutered.

    Ideally, the third bar would be hidden and only appear when you press L2+R2. The main bar would fade out while the buttons were held. I honestly see this as a necessity for me. The game feels incredibly restrictive with the few buttons I'm given and the enormous amount of things I want to map to my hotbar.

    Last I heard they already had this up and running on dev builds during beta-phase but the problem was how to fit it into the limited memory of the ps3-version. I'm pretty sure it will eventually come to at least pc some time in the future. People having trouble with limited crossbar space, have you activated different sets for weapon sheathed/unsheathed? I only have to tap R1/RB once to jump between my two crossbar-sets that i use while fighting which I think is pretty hassle-free. Gives access to 32 skills with the click of a button and the crossbar is not cluttered with mount-commands or teleport etc. while fighting

    ^^^^^ Everyone should try this setup, the guy's video guide in New Player forum was an eye opener to 90% of gamepad users.

    Ehh... What? I play games with my 360 pad on the PC all the time that require both triggers be pulled all the way and they work just fine.
