Curse

Hello, this is my first post here and I registered today after lurking around for weeks. I have been thinking ever since I started playing Guild Wars that id like to have a simple feature added to the current control system. Due to the way I typically play games I've come to the conclusion that I no longer want to hold my right mouse button down to lock the camera in mouse-look mode while stearing my character around. Usually I'm playing for 2+ hours straight and for 99% of that time I'm constantly holding the button down. Please devs give my finger a break. I want an option in the control menu where I can check a little box that will do what my finger has been doing all this time. I've not seen this question / issue posted before so today I felt I needed to speak up and maybe I have a chance of getting the option added to the game. Does anybody else like this idea or am I just weird? By the way this wouldn't change the control scheme, just add an option that would reverse what holding the right mouse button down does. If there IS an actual way to do this now, then it has eluded me somehow and I'll probably feel dumb later. heh.

How about an option to make it "sticky", ie. right-clicking once makes it act like its held down, right-clicking a second time makes it stop.

or you could do something like SWG did. You press alt and you can move the pointer anywhere on the screen. You press alt again and its a smaller area to move in and it reacts as if you are holding the right mouse button

Yeah that would work too methinks. Surely more people would like this as well. I figured somebody would say by now that it's made for you to click zee right mouse, move camera and then release and keep doing that but I'm always making fine adjustments to the camera and end up holding it down. I wish that would be fixed.

A well thought out and good sugestion. The funny thing is that we've all been busy replying to "x class is too powerful" posts and forgetting that there are still some simple issues that can be easyly resloved.
