Watched a Preview Video on the D.R.I.V.E Mount

Except it’s a vehicle and not a mount?

:frowning:

You mount the vehicle.

I hope it isn’t compulsory, much like the current old flight v dynamic, i’ll happily (maybe not so happy at times lol) plod along at my own pace while everyone else zooms past me.

Cars are indeed vehicles.

It’s still just only usable in one zone so whether it succeeds or fails is limited to just one patch.

Well, I’m worried that this is probably the dynamic ground mount trial run. Mounting/dismounting vehicles in this game is ultra clunky and annoying.

Oh I need to watch

It would if it was a gnomish brand. :wrench::robot:

Think of it like a flight path for the ground

I watched a couple different people talk about it today and thus far I’m not really looking forward to it. Seems a bit too fast and I have a feeling I’ll be crashing into walls a lot. Thankfully you can still mount up on ground mounts so anyone who doesn’t want to do it can at least do that, but you may miss things or not be able to complete quests without the car, who knows.

I’ll give it a go when the time comes and I’ve always wanted faster ground mounts, but hopefully you can adjust the speed somehow enough to make a difference and go the speed you like.

Thankfully, for most of Undermine I’ve tested so far, it ISN’T mandatory. However my other gripe is that many areas have way too many mobs to just ride through on a slow mount with 100% ground speed. That’d be the bigger complaint is just the CLUTTER, living or otherwise.

The more concerning complaint I heard was the zone just isn’t really big enough to take advantage of it.

At least, that’s what some people on the PTR said when I was testing class changes. I’ve yet to actually try it.

Other than for race world quests in Undermine it seems perfectly optional. The main quest didnt even direct me to it, I had to go look for how to get it.

This game is suffering from clutter in just about every way.

Visual, audio, terrain, doodads, pets and nameplates, interface, talent trees, keybinds…

We don’t need ilvl squishes, we need clutter cleanings.
