I understand the usage of macros in an MMO-RPG. I don't use them, myself, because I'm both into S&M and a purist. I also don't use third-party mods whether they are UI enhancements or otherwise.

This, exactly. It's an FPS - it goes like this:

WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

oops I'm in combat ADADADADDADDAD

<-- that's me pressing my mouse button, you can't see it but I just jacked off all over that spot with my click-spam.

All I think morf is trying to saying is that people don't need to be banned for using macros.

And I agree with him. Will I use a macro in combat to gain an advantage? Doubtful. Will I care if someone else does? No.

Also, please read your analogy - even my 2 year old cousin would understand why it's stupid.

Really, If people like you are going to be playing this game, then it must be dumbed down much more than I thought.

Frustrated opinion abound but no facts can be found... again

ROFL. I find it hilarious that all 3 of you guys have abandoned all hope of winning the argument and resorted to character assassination instead.

Yeah this exactly. I may use a few, but situations where they are useful are few and far between. It's really not much of a difference, at all. You guys are acting like every time you've ever died it was because of a "MACRO CHEATER" - seriously, cry me a river.

Is this a discussion about exploiting equipment to gain an upperhand against people who do not do the same thing or a circlejerk?

As I said before, it's a whinefest where bad players blame their losses on their opponents' hardware setup.

I'd quite like chat macro's back, like PS1. Those were useful. I'd also quite like the ability to bind some voice macro's to single keys.
There's no need for anything more than that, they're useful in rpg's not so much in fps's

I dont think using Macros is cheating at all. Sure, its a shortcut, but it dosent always give such a huge advantage.

In Planetside, i have a G500 mouse, and i set up my thumb button to hit my T key and my F3 key at the same time. So i can switch to third person, AND it also turns on my Audio Amp, i can hit it again and both turn off. I never felt like this was cheating, or gave me a huge advantage, its just conveniant to not have to move my Movement hand away from WASD or my mouse hand from my mouse.

Macro keyboards/mice just send in keystrokes in the order you tell it to, it dosent seem like there is a realistic way to block it, and i know if a game blocked my X6 keyboard or my G500 mouse, i personally would be very pissed, as i paid the extra money for the features it provided.

just summing up the anti-macro arguments so they don't have to make them again.

UnknownDT · 2012-02-15, 12:46 PM

Go ahead and use macros... I'll still beat the person who does :P as with many other players in DT. Macros is a shortcut.. if they need them to play/win it only makes people who don't look a little better.
