Well yeah of course they ignored feedback. Blizzard historically has always been stubborn and never admits fault when they are wrong about anything in the game. They will ask for the feedback and promptly ignore it bc they think they know best and then 2-3 years later they do an interview and get retrospective and admit they were wrong and want to be more open and flexible and promptly do nothing different. it just never ends lmao

Whining about 5 secondsâŚwhat a bunch of entitled crybabiesâŚGet over itâŚ
As it should be. You wanna go double as fast? You donât get to float and afk. You wanna float around and be lazy? You go half as fast. Itâs not normal/common to be constantly switching between the 2 so the 5 second cast on the ground seems totally fine. However, we do live in a world now where the whiny weird 1% are constantly catered to so I wouldnât be surprised if they change it eventually.

How can you say that? We just got arachnophobia mode /s
Ya, always had two on my bar. One Dragon riding and one normal flying. One has speed the other has control, and i switched often. The fact that I now have a cast time each time I want to change for something that was basically instant before is a definite decline in quality of life. I would rather have what we had over this.

Is that not how you land with Dragonriding? /j
I just came back before the pre-patch and was given DR from the start, I havenât even touched old âflying.â
I am still wondering where that even came from. I doubt it came from the players.
Iâm convinced it was solely for the memes

So many people crying about sky riding, give it up. Sky riding is the most fun Iâve ever had playing wow, it actually made flying worth it. I have to pay attention, itâs interactive, itâs fast, and mosy importantly it just feels fun to do sky ride. I understand there is a small but vocal group of sky riding haters and you are allowed to have your opinion as I have mine, but for everyone in the comments saying ânone of us want this Blizz doesnât listenâ you are wrong, me and everyone I know in wow love sky riding and donât want them to touch it at all.

This needs to be an instant switch. If not, at least let us designate a single mount that can do the other riding that isnât selected. Itâs annoying to want to switch when you get to a quest area; before I could âskyrideâ to an area then hop on a âsteadyâ mount to move to mobs/collect things. Now, I have to waste time switching. Sure, it wonât kill me, but it is now 500% more annoying and dumb.

Complains about wanting to skyride but wanting to use their old mounts.
Gets ability to skyride with old mounts.
Complains it isnât the epitome of convenience and that blizzard never listens after implementing a change 100% from player suggestion.

No it doesnât. Learn how to press buttons while flying. Itâs not that big a deal.
I canât believe everyone is having a melt down over this.

I am pretty sure it is done this way to prevent hit and run tactics in world pvp, resource gathering, rare spawns, etc.

This⌠itâs a downgrade in quality of life, and people are arguing against having a QoL when it doesnât impact them.

I can, there are people with disabilities that need a change, and there are people arguing against it.
Exactly, movement and exploration feels objectively worse now.
Iâm not even going to touch on the bugs, pre patch made the game in general just feel worse.
In all the pre patches Iâve done, the only one thatâs felt about as bad as this is Warlords.

Lets do the math here for the flying toggle.
Itâs a 1.5s cast to summon the mount. Then another 5s to switch to static. (which dismounts you). You then, have to summon the mount again for another 1.5s. Thats 8s before you can take off. If you want to switch back thats another 5s. Pointless. Remove the cast time

I think this one is worse, we got no communication this time.
AND the event launched with the pre patch and also came with the first stat squish which causedâŚ. Issues with scaling to say the least.
