Please allow normal flying in War Within on Day 1

So we can’t have flying on day 1 because it’s game breaking but we get flying on day 1.
If we want flying we have to do $_TASKS but until then we get to use flying instead of flying.

That’s because flying is bad but flying is good because flying is better than flying.

So everyone that wants flying will just have to use flying until they unlock flying.

My question is, if we can have flying why can’t we have flying?

Why is flying better than flying?

This just isn’t making any sense anymore.

Like, the files in the game?

We can though, again, any timegating or locking on flying past hitting max level and completing the main campaign is pure assumption at this point until stated otherwise.

Yea, day 1 generally means “when you start” not “if you happen to complete X, Y, and Z on day 1”

That is not what that means, it means possible from day 1.

I guess we have different definitions, then.

I’ll keep and eye on it.
I doubt anyone gets flying on day 1.

I’d love to be proven wrong though.

But regular and normal flying are now the new dragonriding style as that’s what Blizz are pushing going forward.

They’re turning dynamic flying into the standard flying method.

I’m not anti-Blizzard, and they’ve been a lot better over the past year but a lot of this kind of nonsense turned out to be just that, nonsense. Blizzard wasn’t known for being completely truthful 4-8 years ago. Like I said I honestly think they’re doing better now.

The only thing flying affects is bypassing the one correct path on the ground and bypassing literal trash enemies in the open world. Flying doesn’t affect the actual content. You can’t fight on a mount (unless you want to go back to the Oculus).

What does that have to do with talking about static flying in a derogatory manner?

It will never be “the standard” because static flying has been the standard for almost 17 years now. Dynamic flying will always be called dynamic flying or dragon riding.

Just because that’s what you want to refer to it as doesn’t mean it is.

The new standard is dynamic.

I mean, static flying is afk flying though. You hit auto run and then you afk until you get there.

Not being able to fly at the start of an expansion is better for the flow of the zones. You can craft much better experiences when you know people have to travel on the ground.

I think those complaining are a vocal minority, which is why it hasn’t changed.

Well what’s even more inane is that we are able to dynamically fly (dragonride) from the jump in the new zones. We have flying, but we don’t have ability to hover above our targets until the right moment and swoop in to complete our objectives.

Heaven forbid the first time people go through a zone they actually engage with it in a meaningful way.

Flying is ok but flying isn’t.

Just because you do that, it automatically means everyone must do that? If you really do afk you’ll fly past your destination.

Is that why we’ll be able to use dynamic flying as soon as we get to the new zones. I also disagree with your first point.

How do you engage with content in a non-meaningful way? Regardless if you’re flying or not you kill the same mobs, you pick up the same quest items, you escort the same NPCs. What exactly are you missing out on if you get to fly from the start?

You miss the point. With hover you can just hover out of the action and just attend to what you need to. With DR you have to find a landing area that isn’t gonna aggro . Also to log out except in a rest zone takes 20 secs.

Finally do you turn off your tv when you need bio break or just hit pause on your DVR or streaming service?
