Well, by a very loud vocal minority, I’m not biking out there in 100+ degree heat or a thunderstorm.
Weren’t you up in arms about being “forced” to use ground mounts because of pathfinder… just a few weeks ago? Lol
Man. I can’t believe what I am reading xD
I wish I could tag people.
You’re both assuming nobody would want to fly in Elden Ring and that WoW players enjoy Elden Ring more than WoW.
I would question both of those things.
I agree with that, it was made for flying. I just think we could have some (non-necessary for ppl rushing to end game) areas that make use of our ground mounts, with terrain made for questing on foot. Places you have to tread carefully or get knocked off , for example.
no…they’d rather show us all that they have no SELF CONTROL and whine about it instead.
In DF I spent a LOT of time ground mounting it because I wanted to see the ground a lot too.
But when Im going from A to B for a quest, no…I dont want to spend 20 minutes fighting world trash and landscape to get there when this game has had the flight mechanic for how long now?
Ion made the RIGHT decision to end his war on flight. The VAST majority of the base clearly loves Skyriding or hed never have carried it forward and we’d still be doing 14 months of pathfinder.
Thankfully Ion has given us HIS NEW flight that he loves so much that there is ZERO chance of a few with no self control whining about it in here getting Skyriding changed.
Ion and crew have done a SPECTACULAR job for two expansions now proving beyond argument they CAN make GREAT landmasses designed for flight.
I absolutely do not. Souls like games are definitely not for me.
I like my idea better.
No one is forcing you to fly if you want to walk everywhere do it like Ion almost killed WoW in WoD after removing flying and had to backtrack immediately stubbornly adding in pathfinder.
yeah…that would be cool.
I wanted it so if you flew over zones controlled by an enemy faction theyd try to shoot you down…and as you build up renown with them they are less likely to fire at you.
That would have been a blast if a lot of the map had had that kind of thing you had to look out for
Totally agree.
You can always join me in my protest -
Though I have failed already since it’s impossible to complete the campaign without flying in at least one quest so far (Manifesto Destiny)
Don’t fly. Simple, now you are immersed or some such silliness.
Great idea!
There is no way this expansion is gonna be 6 month. Anything less then 18 months and I’ll lick a sock.
yeah…we fell for it again. lol
The tell should have been the OP admitting that hes using flight while whining about it lol
Nearly ALL of these threads end up being about ganking lowbies every time someone starts the topic.
You just have to keep at them…eventually they’ll break and admit its about world “PVP” and they lost their gank fodder lol
It would be awesome, I think
That area in DF where it would tell you to get down, youre about to be shot…yeah, like a lot more of that so you have to land and ground hoof it till youre out of that enemies area.
maybe at renown 5 or something they shoot at you half as much…by 10 they just dont bother…something like that would have been cool
Okay. WoW without flight has sold better in two cases. In classic and in WoD.
Classic was not as popular as tbc and wrath.
WoD is one of the most hated expansions next to SL.
Both had heavily time gated flying. Try again.
You’re right. What matters is how flight effects the main gameplay loop.
And in WoW it effects it in a negative way. The emergent gameplay with flying in the game is just bad.
I disagree. It effects it in a positive way. Especially now with skyriding over the old sky swimming. We can now have interactive and dynmaic flight that’s fun rather then mindless swimming from one place to the other.
I said it was from IGN.
I’m not putting in the effort to search your claim on your behalf. So until you source the claim it will be dismissed.
You need to go to a school that teaches you how to recognize a better idea
Any game that forces you to choose between fun and efficiency is a bad game.
Not really. Besides most people find flying fun. So if you don’t find flying fun you’ll have to sacrifice it. That’s the case of pretty much any QoL feature in any game.
In large part because casual players will watch an infuencer play through the leveling zones and see just how awful it is.
Source?
Yet you’re whining about someone expressing a different opinion to you. You know what you can do if you don’t like it? Don’t read.
We’re entitled to “whine” about someone expressing a different opinion. Especially when that “opinion” is a suggestion to the devs which would reduce the fun many of us players have.
Good thing is Ion will NEVER listen to this flight crap again…even pathfinder is exiting, stage left.
Ion is anti-flight too but he lost that fight both inside and outside of bliz hq.
Why are bikable cities so beloved?
Convivence. So pretty much the opposite of what y’all suggesting for wow.
Blizzard will see this one person making a post and next expansion they will be like “we’ve seen feedback about how flying ruins the immersion so we’ve decided to remove flying”
