I am looking foward to this game. This is one of the pitifully few mmorpgs coming out that caters to twitch gamers and fps gamers. There is no need for anybody who prefers the "dueling calculators" or "click and wait" style of combat found in games like everquest and warcraft and most other mmorpgs to complain about this game and others like it. There are literally OVER a DOZEN new mmorpgs in developement that cater to your preferred combat style, play those and enjoy them. This game is for those of us who love twitch combat and yearn for a new high quality mmorpg that features it.

Thanks for the intelligent reply sinoth. Unfortunately you may be correct. Only time will tell. EDIT: I am not hoping for a counterstrike experience and I'm hoping stats and numbers factor in. What I'm truly hoping is that hitting and missing is based on actual hitting and missing (due to your personal accuracy or lack thereof, like you'd expect in an action game) instead of random "to hit dice rolls".

Actual mouse aiming, IMO, adds another facet to combat that current MMOs lack. All the number crunching and stat whoring is fun, but actually being able to duck behind cover and win based on tactics instead of number rolls.... that is exciting

Lead with your face and role with the punches.
My guess is that it will be something similar to the planetside system where you actually do need the skill to aim but your characters skill would affect the COF, and or ROF/damage.
