Vi.king Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 it´s merely a time saver for me. if you dont use tab you would have to slowly drag your mouse all over the monitor all the time as there could be literally everywhere one little lootspot. I really wish the perception stat would work outside of scouting mode and highlight you those normal lootspots (and if its a really high perception skill even the secret spots, scouting should only give you a significant bonus in perception) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wish the perception stat would work outside of scouting mode and highlight you those normal lootspots (and if its a really high perception skill even the secret spots, scouting should only give you a significant bonus in perception) What purpose would that serve? Why make it mandatory for everyone to have even more these UI markers all over the scenery telling them where to go and what to do? Why not just make the highlight key an On/Off toggle instead? 1 This statement is false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japser1977 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I don't consider it cheating, however since i have binded it to Mouse 3 button I catch myself having it pressed continiously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepe Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 It helps, not forced to use ofc It would mess ui too much if those markers would be on all time, so its just fine as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vattghern Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I have TAB bound to the minimap. In a way it does constitute cheating, on the other hand with wizards and ciphers being commonplace in the game lore you'd expect an orientation help would be the first thing theyd come up with.

PhantomEidolon Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 If highlighting objects with TAB is considered cheesy. I guess i cheated in Diablo 2 a lot. Just call me Cheesy McCheater, lord of game cheese. You can't make an omelette without ruthlessly crushing dozens of eggs beneath your steel boot and then publicly disemboweling the chickens that laid them as a warning to others. ~Tarquin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassat Hunter Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I just played a casual game where pixel hunting for items was a thing. Finding a small object, which you know it looks like, on 15 potential maps... it was a pain I don't want to relive. Now expand that to not knowing what to look for and 152 maps. Yeah, Tab, I looooooove you! ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created. At least top 5.

manageri Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Guys, I'm using a monitor to play the game. Is this cheating? Should I be doing it blind? Edited April 8, 2015 by manageri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarack21 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Guys, check it out: if you hit the spacebar, the game pauses! And you can take all the time you want to issue orders and consider your options!So cheat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassat Hunter Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Dude, Tab, okay, there's a line... but Spacebar? You just crossed it man, too far... too far! ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created. At least top 5.

Katarack21 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Dude, Tab, okay, there's a line... but Spacebar? You just crossed it man, too far... too far! I know, right? Clearly you're supposed to go on slow mode and hit that button in the middle of the screen. I figure the spacebar was some kind of developer tool they forgot to remove! Use it 'till they patch it, I say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luj1 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Wasteland 2 had the same feature and I regret missing it completely at first play through :D.

Kal Adan Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I am not going to try and convince you. The fact that you try - hard - indicates that you find it cheating. It should be enough of an answer to you. What you do with that is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luj1 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I'm with the person that said that TAB highlighting could be removed... The best choice for developers is usually giving the player a choice. I.e. on/off box in the option window.

Hassat Hunter Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Why does there need to be an option when it's as simple in this case as "Don't like it, don't use it"... why need an option for that? ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created.

Cluas Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 However maybe all blue loot containers should be automatically highlighted while you are searching and nearby. hit 'q' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hassat Hunter Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I should let those people play Return to Castle Wolfenstein. "There's a button for suicide.
