If SWG is going to go FPS, then go FPS

I love games like wwiionline and planetside, BUT SWG turned out to be A MOCKERY OF FPS!

If theyre gonna go FPS then they have to go ALL THE WAY, not halfassed like it is now.  You hold your mouse pointer over the target and hold the mouse down?  WTF is that?  Thats horrible.  Thats not FPS.

    Since when has it ever been done a different way?

    I guarantee you that it will never be finished to the point of being worth the experience, or entirely one way or the other. These guys just are constantly hedging their bets. They are lukewarm on everything...

    ...except draconian change like people love to say, and machiavellian forum management like Koster loves to say.

    im sorry but, i disagree here... not with the fact that the FPS thing is crap but the fact that the combat in my eyes has got better! i mean before you just had to click on your target and wait whilst your char shot every 10 seconds! i got pretty bored myself. atleast now we are more involved in the combat, well i know not alot but a little bit atleast. How can you say that it isnt anything like a FPS when it was said to be a third person? which it is. And a very good one. Just my opinion btw image

    Those of us that have ever played a FPS in our LIFE see it as reaaaly lame. 

     Like the flying in Planetside.  Those of us that have played flight simulators, see flying in planetside to be extremely simplistic and dull.  But at least Planetside has REAL FPS for other vehicles and infantry.
