I dunno what you guys are talking about, since there's a "sniper" mode for bows.
Which is free aim pretty much.

Can you explain that "sniper" mode? I just started the game and I want to use the bow frequently.

In the beginning of the game (tutorial), it pretty much makes you test out all the combat styles (Melee, Ranged, and Magic). When I was doing the ranged combat tutorial, it told me to hold down a button and then press another button to activate sniper mode. I'm using the 360 pad and I'm not sure which buttons they were since I'm a melee fighter and I haven't used a bow since, but it's definitely there.

I don't care about that sniper mode. That's a completely different story. I want fully free aiming with the bow, not just in some so-called sniper mode which you can't use and be quick at the same time. I loved to play with the bow in Gothic 3, that's what I call free aiming.

I'll check it and let you know.
By the way, I don't know if it's been posted, but they're already working for the 1st patch and they're listening to the communities wishes - at least that's what the sticky post @ the official forums says.

Yeah, we know about that patch, the one that brings DX11 too. If you have an account on their forums, you could tell them about making the auto-aim an option and also if they can improve the alt-tab-ing. It's a real pain in the ass, most of the times it just crashes.

Well obviously it's not exactly what we all want, but it's there and you can use it instead of the normal auto-aim.

Sure but all it does is let you put an arrow in the centre mass of an enemy, you can't actually aim for the head of an enemy which as far as I'm concerned makes archery pointless, and for me it's the only way I want to play RPGs, mix of archer/swordsman, I have zero interest in using magic for example.

OK, completed the tutorials, I didn't see if you could aim @ the head, but I doubt it.
Well, it's onvious the game was developed with consoles in mind, but overall I have to say I'm impressed by the engine ( never seen such fast loading times @ 1920 all maxed ) and some cutscenes are actually very nice so far ( very early in the game ).
OK, I'll make a thread about the auto-aim feature

when I go in sniper mode it's free aim for me. I'm playing on the PC with mouse/keyboard....
I use Z or X (cant remember) but I do remember being in this mode several several times shooting animals and enemies and most of the time they rush at me and I have to aim and shoot (hold LMB for a split second while arrow charges) and I do have to aim and I miss all the time so I switched to mage until a later level. (playing on hard and mobs would 1 shot me while they got shot with 2-3 arrows and lost maybe 15% HP lol)

yah the spells are a lot if you make some crazy stuff but one of the mages skills can reduce mana cost of spells by up to 50%.

How do I leave the chapter 3 area?  Spoiler: | My teleporter hasn't worked since I arrived. I killed the demon guy and got his heart, and it's saying I need to go back to the Prophetess on the starting island. |

Shouldn't there be a local teleport then which you can use if the portable variety won't work?

Hello,guys!
In the savannah area,somewhere near the spiral path which you have to walk with a horse during a quest,I have found a dungeon filled with stone sentinels.At the beginning of it,I had to drop down off a platform-like thing,down a stony cliff.So far so good,I reached the end of the dungeon without any problems.Now,however,I see no exit at the end of it! And going back through the entrance is out of the question,since I see no way to go back up the platform!
So,in case you have explored this dungeon,have you found the exit?If not,is it possible to cheat and use a gravitation or noclip cheat?Or,is there any other solution to this? I haven't saved for several hours,so I can't reload another save...thanks in advance!

Can you be eg. a battlemage, or do you have to specialize in either of the basic classes(warrior, archer, mage)?

Well there is a different kind of portal in Chapter 3 that only send you to other portals in the area, but I took your advice and looked around some more. Eventually I found a real portal to the north of the village.

Second chapter, behind the New Ashos Magic Academy Univserity, small dock area, one of the guys there will recognize you from earlier in the game and bargain for selling said boat, cost is 3000.
|
Create EQ_Boat_1 or EQ_Boat_2 should also work it's one of them, unsure which one of them it was though.
(Same with Horse_01, Horse_02 and Horse_03 for the three horse varieties.)

Never played this type of rpg and I am so lost. I can see why people buy these games, they get a manual.

Well not really, people buy games because they want to support it (the devs/publisher).
You get a .pdf manual with every new game these days, including this one.
