Since the update which has been installed a few minutes ago, i cannot enable autofire anymore (right-click on the weapon icons) is this a bug or an error on my side?

    No, seems they -removed- auto-fire.

    Of all stupid things to do. This is one of the things that made the game playable. Smashing spacebar to fire is just.. damn dumb. Excuse my language.

    Removing this is the right thing to do if they want to force players to quit. For me removing it is down-right game breaking.

    Also, anyone spotting some patch-notes anywhere? I want to read those!

    To see if this was intensional.

    I don't know if its ground breaking...it is going to make me significantly worse at this game though. I'm old...giving me more buttons to mash isn't going to be fun :)

    Also cannot enable autofire, on two characters. And I doubt this was intentional gents, calm down.

    As I wrote, game-breaking, not ground-breaking.

    Let me guess, cryptic you just fk up something else while you trying to fix something. So we had a Feb 03 patch for fixing a Feb 02 patch's bugs. Now, we just need a Feb. 04 patch to fix the Feb. 03 patch's bug and hopefully a Feb 05 patch to fix Feb. 04's bug. The world just keep on spinning.

    This seriously is poor implementation here on the patches. Way too many bugs. :mad:

    At this point I'll just say thanks for the information. Looks like I'll skip playing for another day until this gets fixed.

    and i guess you are not a developer so you dont know whats going on. if you are one, than you cannot be a good one. mistakes can happen, what do you expect? they happen on almost every updatable software..

    Well, while waiting for the event to kick off Tumerboy said in zone that there's people around to put out fires so:

    FIRE!!! FIRE!!! Please Cryptic, break out the extinguishers! We have no autofire during the 2nd year Anniversary celebration!!! Bad timing, please help!!!!

    Well, I've done my part. Seriously please fix this as soon as humanly possible (if not sooner). Thank you.

    Well at least we have upgraded a minor annoyance to a Major annoyance on the feature list! :D

    And I sense a great disturbance in the schwartz, as though a million spacebars cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced...

    It's a bug allright. The option to enable and disable autofire is still there on the options pane, it just doesn't do a whole much atm...

    Here I thought the Warcraft's Maintenance windows and dumb nerfs were bad. I was in a PVE "The Cure" (space) (Normal) when I noticed I was firing only phasers when I pressed space bar. My team failed the run, when we realized that "Auto-Fire" was disabled.

    I hate button mashing.

    What changelog? They still haven't posted today's patch notes...

    Sorry but flying an Escort without autofire... As if mashing the poor spacebar wasn't bad enough, it wasn't firing my torpedos, was having to do that manually... :(

    Well it is nice to know it wasn't just me, sucked charging into a group of borg spheres with Fire at will and wondering why none of your phasers are firing. >.<
