It will probobly be u attack or block and there doing the same at the same time. So it might take some skill instead of just click and it does it al i think.

u shoul dhave some control over combat. those of u that hae played rs know waht i mean. maybe there is a button for a high attk one for a midle atack adn one for low atk one for block. and the higher ur level gets the more combo\'s u can get and the longer they get.

I think the combat in rs sucked. You click and it does a repetitive motion over and over for you. Its really stupid. I dont think we should use parts from rs combat to make the one for ps.

well in EQ combat you click Auto-Attack and you automatically attack the target with your primary attack, be it 2 handed weapons, 2 weapons, weapon and shield, w/e, you can use a secondary attack such as kick, various punches, and i think you can even whack them with a shield...

EQ is ok, only bad thing is the money that it costs

EQ\'s system sounds good, we could use that and add something new to it to make it better. :)

Title: i do not agree

i think it should be more like a shooting game. because the game\'s first person so auto combat would be really boring because U don\'t even see your character fughting all U will see is your sword and shield ( in my case 2 swords) moving on your screen and you can\'t control them as for archery U can aim better in first person  :D

EQ\'s battle system is fun, and its more than auto attack, u can cast spells(which are must more convient than rs, they dont use runes to cast spells ^^) each race has its own ability it can do(ok so its really its class that has hte ability but uh im gonna get yelled at if i say the c word!) those abilities our things such as kick, bind wounds, slam, and others(also other options like beg, fish, etc.)

No Eq combat.  Eq combat = boring as hell.   I can get a coffee and snack while I wait for it to end.  No, definately boring.  At least make the interface better anyway.  The interface was designed by a retarded chimp.....at least I have often thought it must have been.  Honest to god, its bland, takes up a very large portion of the screen (more than half If I remember aright) and is quite cumbersome.  Eq can be fun....then again, you can die and spend the next 3 hours trying to recover corpses (you go back for you body, die, go back, die, and so on, hoping to end the iteration of death/respawn eventually).  I just hope they don\'t restrict binding to mages.  That was a awesome mistake in Eq....because fighters, rogues, and what have you were completely dependent on magic users.  We want a non-magical thing for that, so everyone can do it.  Otherwise the game becomes a corpse hunt all to often.
