Are these simple but highly useful additions coming soon?....

A: An auto-loot feature in the Interface settings?
Saves a lot of annoying time running in circles pressing "F". Simple feature to add.

B: A "All bags in one" feature?
There is a lot of wasted interface space scrolling through each separate bag. Simple feature to add.

C: A "Go to character select" GUI button?
I know about the /gotocharacterselect command. Its annoying and you have to wait 15 seconds, rendering it useless unless there is a login queue. Simple feature to add.

D: "Real-time" damage and healing meters?
There are already post-instance meters, why not make them viewable throughout the instance. Simple feature to add.

E: "Server status" interface on the main page?
Its super annoying having to search random places for this information. Put it front and center. Simple feature to add.

F: "LFG" and "Trade" chat channels?
Inputted from a poster below. It would help clear up the annoying speed of the Zone chat scrolling. Simple feature to add.


This isn't a flame PW thread, I love the game and the dev team, just trying to find out if these easy features are coming. It would make a lot of people happier with very little labor.

    Some good points, some are discussed in other threads I think, but I haven't seen anyone ask for auto loot, but I think the main problem is with people using it for botting

    A: As said above
    B:I would love to see this
    C:They have actually replied to this in another thread, so hopefully soon
    D:You can also view this during the dungeons by hitting X, although I honestly wish they would make it either only post dungeon or just remove it, I hate it when the dps'rs ignore the proper strategy of a boss fight just to get the highest dps output possible so that they can be at the top of the list.
    E:I never minded it how it is now, but I can agree it would be nice to have

    This so much. Have it only at end. I got tired of WoW where people were posting recounts after EVERY fight in pugs, even the holiday events that were a cakewalk. It only was ever used to show epeen and belittle others. I've seen so many players here just try and get top score, brag about being on top, and ignoring how to actually do the fight.

    A. the requirement to have to run around climb up boxes ect is part of the "design" and people who have complained about the weird interface choices typically just get told to get used to it. kinda like the lack of being able to scroll in or pan the camera right and left with keys. while it would be vastly useful a lot of people would refer to it as "dumbing down the interface" so don't hold your breath on this one.

    b. nice thought but I also believe their bag interface is an artistic choice much like their choice to make mounts and fashion outfits take up bag space rather than giving them a tab like crafting and companions.

    c. might happen some day and yes it would be nice.

    d. I think you can actually view them I did by accident before.

    e. It is bizarre how they don't pop up info like they do on other PWE/Cryptic mmos. A message of the day as it were they got a home screen with all sorts of useless news and info that is mostly irrelevant when there is a crisis. what I do is I hit new posts on the forum and if the top 20 posts that come up are all why cant I get in.. omg its the end of the world... Purge/rollback related topics... a few people quitting...a few people complaining about whiners... and a few why is this class so over/underpowered(no matter what is happening there is ALWAYS 2-3 class balance posts in every mmo) .its probably down.

    For bags, you can change the size of the bag window to make no scrolling.

    Please add to that list:

    1. a LFG channel: it's bloody annoying to see all that spam from people wanting a group in the zone channel
    2. a Trade channel: same explanation as the above.

    I hope this gets added soon...

    I really want auto loot.

    Also would like to be able to turn off that annoying blinding red effect when low on health. And turn off damage floaters adding up for a total on skills.

    Good input, but is mostly opinionated. Any information on what the dev team has actually said?

    But good suggestions, I support them.

    My point is, you don't work for Cryptic and you don't know NW's code.

    A: save a few seconds here and there, but this is one step closer to botting and I can take it or leave it.

    B: Could not care less about... okay, maybe I could care a little less, but not much

    C: This is already getting implemented and has been said by the dev's

    D: No thanks, epeen stroking is not needed, go back to wow, rift or any other game that has mods that do this. Personal use, sure, but I do not need the losers who feel it necessary to stroke their ego's

    E: care slightly less about this than I do b

    F: two more channels to fill with useless spam, sure why not... I will leave them as well.

    Guys, either leave or I will report the trolling.

    I am not asking whether people like the features, as I stated. I am asking for user/CM input about their future statuses.

    Posting replies that are opinionated and irrelevant to the OP is trolling.

    Thank you for moving on.

    Offering an opinion, whether you like it or not, is not trolling.

    I also pointed out that a Dev has stated one of the features is being implemented in the upcoming content patch.

    Next time you call someone a troll, just grab a mirror.

    If you read the stickies, you'd know that calling people trolls is not allowed.

    If you read my replies, I never once called someone a troll. However, I am allowed to notice and react to the "act" of "trolling".

    Thank you and goodbye. You are just "spamming"

    This actually explains a lot. Only someone whose education far outstrips his practical experience would make such a simple mistake.

    Reported for harassment/spamming.

    Maybe the type of behavior in a simple and passive thread is why the community stays away from the forums for the most part? Could be. Either way, please move on.

    Do you understand the term "public forum?"

    Anyone that disagrees with the OP is wrong, he calls them trolls and ignorant. This is the type of person to be avoided. He posts in a COMMUNITY forum, but does not want the COMMUNITY to have an opinion.

    You only post a recount when you're top dps, or request a recount post when you're running it and know you're top. That's the typical use. Watch recount and watch when certain players request it ... like magic.

    Look at the patchnotes. 1/2 dev is working on NW, all the rest is working on the next cash grab game.
    so, no. your suggestions are not going to be implemented EVER.
