They're nerfing Dynamic Flight Speed in Old World content

Of course a component as to what people like about it is the speed. But you are so one-track minded that you can’t imagine that people like something for more than one reason. Shocking, right? But you are right, TBC styled flying feels excruciatingly slow at this point even more so than it ever felt before.

Previously it was “the best thing we had”. Now it is being compared to something that’s both faster and more fun. But fun is subjective (and is something you have never experienced in your life) so of course folks will use a more objective metric to describe what they like about it.

And of course, more of playing the victim and all that nonsense.
Trolling on forums aren’t really a hobby. Why not try knitting, then maybe you’d actually experience “fun” for the first time in your life.

Yeah because faster means better handling, braking AKA…driving. Oh snap. I sure know when I go to buy an automobile I look at its top speed and not care how it handles.

A accept the fact you are on-track minded and are going to keep ignoring everything you need it to be about like the guy above who is also making really really bad arguments that support me but is too blind to understand basic concepts.

P.S. This thread is about a speed reduction and YOU guys crying about it.

So static flying is more fun to you because it can stop faster? I don’t get your point at all with this.

I was never expecting it in old zones, just DF and future xpacs.

Obviously, understanding points would cause you to need to actually defend instead of continuing to ignore and dismiss.

I accept your lack of argument as concession to the fact the only thing good about DF is speed and speed is not better FLYING.

Imagine hitting whirling surge in Eastern Plaguelands and you wake up in Booty Bay.

It’s the speed, the animations of the flight, the flashy wind gust animation.

The nose diving under bridges and swooping up into the air.

Verses holding W and moving in a straight line at the exact same set speed.

Again, bring the speed down to Old School and then we shall see if the FLYING is actually BETTER or not. The speed will mean nothing. You refuse to accept this because you know I am right. Dynamic Flying is not better without its speed.

Also, I can nose dive under bridges and swoop up in the air with old school because I do not have to only hold down W to move. You have no argument son, move on and cry over the drop in speed.

Watching the forums fill up with threads from those that love dragon flying is a riot. They know damn well that it is nothing without its speed. Just being more interactive with skills does not make it better.

Just move with your mouse while holding down an action button frees you to do any kind of movements with old school only the speed is the difference.

Oh, I don’t care about the drop in speed. It’s only 80%…

And you must have missed what I said above.

"Gamers also notoriously always pick the easiest path, no matter how fun it is.

If both mounts were the same speed 99% of us would just static fly because it’s easier, it just so happens that DR flight is the easier way and it’s fun."

If you enjoy wiggling your mouse to slowly glide under bridges with the static mount animations, more power to you.

Without the added animations of the mount itself and the flashy wind gusts DR flight would be bland and look extremely outdated.

Totally fine seeing it brought down and am loving the forums blow up over it.

Ouch, slam dunk on the troll acting as if he isnt understanding the simple points being made about how speed is the only difference.

Yes, right now DR flight is the easier way because it has the speed advantage.

If both were matched in speed, static would be easier so everyone would do it.

But right now, DR is easier and fun.

Resorting to insults is the sign of a weak argument btw.

So the only difference is the speed because it isnt actually better. You finally arrived at the point I made originally. Glad you finally accidentally said it.

ROFLMAO.

It’s more fun and faster.

How is that so hard for y’all to accept?

tbh I’d still use DR it’s so much more fun to me.

Read the above argument, even he got tricked into admitting it.

You can gloss over my point all you like and prance around beating your chest in victory. Lol

Like I said, gamers will pick the easiest path no matter which side is fun.

DR is fun, but if static was easier people would pick it.
