I've been reading a lot of post's that people complain about the clunky combat system...
I personally am not seeing any issue's but it does pose the question, what are your system spec's for those who are experiencing clunky combat controls?? Be Honest, if the dev's read this they'll most likely take into account what hardware is having issue's with the game...

    2h hand is awfully clunky, but seen as noone really plays it noone really moans about it, example, charging...most of the time you end up behind, and aim sometimes misses, also the hit box for 2h is very short compared to duel wield.

    I get an issue when I block sometimes, the game decides I wanted to open up my map or my Inventory, or any other one button opening.

    And no, I haven't rekeyed them, the game is just being bad at those points.

    Running an AMD 6 core processor with a Nvidia Geforce 650 Ti and have not had the problems people have been complaining about regarding the combat system. Maybe there are some specific hardware issues people are experiencing and think its the game.

    It doesn't matter what anyone's computer specs are. Unlike consoles, there are thousands of variations of PC hardware, drivers, and game settings that players use. This game cannot be optimized to run 100% smoothly for everyone.

    As an aside, I play this game on a cheap quad core that I built 7 years ago and it runs just fine for me. This game doesn't require a top end system to play.

    LOL I guess no one wants to admit that MAYBE the problems they are having are their OWN underpowered machines?

    Not like your going to be able to determine much about "why" the game acts the way it does with some systems and not others. There are simply too many variable for you to troubleshoot from a thread like this. It's pretty pointless.

    I typically get anywhere from 35 to 90 FPS depending on load. Large PvP battles might bring it down to 15 or so. I run the game on pretty high enhanced settings so I'm not piping up here because I have computer envy. My rig is pretty decent.

    Like I said. There are just too many variables and things that effect one system may not effect another virtually identical system with different component makes. My guess would be if you have someone running low settings and they're just chugging along, they probably know their rig sucks and most likely don't blame the game...just sayin.

    I disagree, Let's say the people who are experiencing problem's are all using an old SB Live! Sound Card or some other piece of hardware. It help's everyone pin point the issue and come up with a solution.

    Lol the guy is in a guild where the only allowed race is American ./Faceplam.

    Most of the clunkyness of the combat system is due to latency which does not have much to do with your hardware. Weapon swap delays and [snip] ups are certainly not caused by hardware issues. Weird rubberbanding also.

    I fail to see the issue... Most guild's don't care how badly their members lag while in combat. Personally, we don't want those kind of issue's to be a problem in dungeons or PvP. So I list we are EST Players and only want American's.

    I heard people playing Wildstar or other crappy tab target-hotbar games calling TESO combat 'clunky'.

    Don't worry, it's not the game, it's them

    Weapon swap should cancel any action and take priority over everything. Other than that, I am fine with combat.

    Good for you.
    And I don't use addons, someone in another thread suggested it might be that.
