Camera Zoom

Could you allow Zoom Camera to be reassigned to a key? Not all players have a mouse wheel and laptops typically do not have one either. My current keyboard has the mouse integrated with no mouse wheel. Please allow Zoom Camera to reassigned to a key like page up page down!

Thanks,
Steve

This isn't an official Guild Wars support Site. This is a gaming site, made by gamers. This tech section is mainly for people who have problems with there machines related to the game not working etc.

If you have something you wish added to the game, then I suggest posting it to the Guild Wars Support team themselves.

My Microsoft keyboard has a zoom feature...which I don't use, cuz the mouse wheel is so much more convenient.

Well that was just a great bit of information that he could use there.

Like this?

Why don't you post it in there?

I am not satisfied with your answer.

I asked a question before and got a similiar response.

If you don't feel like listening to your customers, when a new game comes out I will switch to that...

Thanks for nothing,

Not satisfied with whose answer??

If you mean the response you were given, I couldn't agree with you more, as this isn't so much a bug or a gaming problem, but more a lack of a feature that should be implemented to be able to change the Zoom Feature.

However, as they have said, I would think it's the Community that says what and where they spend there time, money and resources on improving or adding to the games.

I hate those auto responses.

Umm...I'm not too sure if this is the right place for it..but..

You guys probably can understand my frustration now.

Support site is pointing to Community sites and community sites are pointing back to support.

Guild Wars Guru site is my favorite as it has the best information during the Betas and now after release.

That is why I posted here, any ideas?

Thanks,

I have a little Microsoft Laptop mouse with a mouse wheel. Nice little gadget...could use a longer cord though. You might want to buy one of those. The Retail is $29.00, but if you shop around you can get it cheaper.

Or you can buy a regular cheapie mouse w/wheel and adapt it to your laptop.

It is easier then trying to get ArenaNet to change that feature.

The keyboard has the mouse integrated and I have tried putting the mouse w/wheel on it and it doesn't handle it.

Guild Wars needs a common site to post these issues instead of having 20 or so different sites to dig thru.

I don't understand why they have auto responses with GM <Name> if they don't do anything. I found another thread that brought that issue up.
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ht=camera+zoom #17.

How does the user community obtain effective contact with the developer community?

It would be a good idea, or at least making one of the Current Forums there official Bug Reporting zone.

In any case, they are probably working on the next major updates, and due to the no Monthly fee, I would assume they are working on that more than the Forum due to limited funds.

With regards to your Mouse with Wheel, which make and model is it, and what exactly happens when you try to use it on your laptop?
