Hey Dev, why you change away the skill from profile ?

Post by owllwo » 06 Jul 2012, 15:43

I know that the skills are now can be changed in hangar,
but you missed out a point here

Example :
1. Normally (no defender) I will attack clan with "explosive ammo"
2. When I encountered a defender that manage to sunk me on 2nd volley - time to disable explosive ammo

Before the skill thing gone,
1. disable the explosive ammo
2. save

Now that the skill thing gone from profile,
I need to:
1. choose the preset on the hangar
2. change the skill on that particular preset
3. save the preset
4. reload the preset

Hello dev ? seriously ?

Just create two presets with the same build. One with explosive ammo, one without.

Now, from warconsole -

1.Select preset build with explosive ammo.

Meet defender that sink you in second volley:

1.Select preset build without explosive ammo.

(Which puts you at one less step than before the removal of profile skill page)

Myello.

I seriously doubt you are using more than 4 presets, let alone the allotted 9.

Not that some players (especially who A/D and have decent dual captain) wouldn't want more, me included.

+1 to this topic
I having the same trouble too...
Keep receiving "skills error - you can only have 6 active skills at one time" when I need swap pre-emptive strike with strafe of a same preset :x

Please fix this since the skill tab have been removed :x

Current step to overcome this is to deselect skill->save preset->load->select skill->save preset->load->save build...
Please cut it to... deselect skill->select skill->save preset->load->save build

You doubted it because you don't maximize the usage but the fact is I am using all the preset slots.

My slots not only contain Attacker but defender build as well.

Anyway, it seems that I am not the only one who unsatisfied with this sudden change :)

Actually, I have maximized the slots.

And I agree with your concern.

However, my suggested solution would be to add more preset slots, rather than bring back the skill profile page.

You don't have to change presets to change skills in the hangar.

Encountered this during a war earlier, so I was concerned. However, I just tested it (as have other people in the thread) and it has the same functionality as the skill tab in the profile page. Select skill, click save. Voila. There's no need to tie it to a preset and sync with server.

So what I originally thought would be a thread that would be receiving a -1 from me will actually get a +1 since I can have 1 less tab open.
