Dragon Riding in Old World?

I can’t say how much I love dragon riding. I don’t even use flight paths anymore… was wondering if we will get a chance to fly from Light’s Hope Chapel to Booty Bay? Will we be able to fly dragons outside the Dragon Isles? Or will this great new feature be permanently locked inside this expansion?

Dragonriding in the old world would be amazing, and fun, which is why it will never happen.

It probably will, since more seem to like it than dislike it. I was even in Orgrimmar last night, got on my normal flight mount, and started to use it like me drake. Then I realized, no wrong mount.

of course not. this is an expansion feature, like garrisons. it will stay a dragon isles only thing because making it for the rest of the game is more work than lazy blizzard developers feel like doing.

Unfortunately I think they will do their usual thing and abandon dragon riding after this expansion.

I hope,there would be a middle ground on this but sadly, no if dragon riding does come to old content then the whole game would need to be redone and we would lose regular flying , main reason why i say this we were promised regular flying in dragon isles have we seen it…yet?

This is still conjecture, just saying.

I don’t see it happening at all , there are too many mounts that are not dragons nor are living creatures.

Both flying (air swimming) systems should be in the world and available at all times.

Tour de Kalimdor. The continental race. It will happen… one day.

We’re not even to 10.1.

I don’t see DR leaving the DI.

But I’m hoping that perhaps they’ll offer a Pathfinder-esque meta achieve in the next expansion to bump our flying mounts to 400 or 500%. I think that would be really nice.

Not a bad idea!

As the Goblins say, time is money! Azeroth is getting so large that going from one place to another takes more and more time (my money!) It appears to me that Blizzard can solve the problem of land-creep that long-lived MMOs will invariably go through. Dragon riding is such a good solution, I am sure another MMO thought of it first. It feels like if Bliz don’t make it available, they are just opening a niche for another MMO.

Dracthy can use their racial flight ability outside of DF, everyone SHOULD be able to dragonride outside of DF.

Dracthyr can dragonride in the old world, so it can handle the new flying just fine.

We are 3 months into a 2 year expansion, calm down.

They haven’t enabled it yet. I don’t know how their code backend works so it might be more involved than that.

Riding a dragon,nope you didn’t beside the beginning entry.
