Please Use the Correct Form of Jump Square Enix!!!

Reality Gutshot: Jumping is no longer a priority! It is IRRELEVANT to the current plan. Know why? They solved the majority of navigation issues. Jumping was intended to resolve the problem of the inability to "climb" in certain areas of a map.

It's really funny how jumping seems to be as hotly debated a topic on these boards as abortion is in other "forums".

I see a log/rock/obstacle in my path. I want to make my character jump over it. I feel like jumping down (or off) a hillside or even cliff, I want to take the plunge. It's freedom of mobility and it's a very simple concept to grasp. Why in the world do I care if my jumping has a context or not?

They said jumping will have an additional use that is cancelling spells, so I doubt they will restrict it, sorry. Also, I have played many mmos and have never once seen a group of afk bots spamming jump to stay online. All of these rediculous extremes people use to argue against jumping are hilarious, though. So thanks for the laughs.

The jump button will be used for cancelling spells.

Lol, you silly guy. If there is a dedicated jump button, I still highly doubt it will situational only. Also, I may be wrong, but I don't recall them saying the jump button would be used to cancel spells, they said jump.

Jumping would be a nice feature to have as it is extremely frustrating having to run a long distance simply due to a small ledge on the map.

Also, jumping has been implemented in MMO's far earlier than WoW, so the "WoW-clone" argument is pointless to make (i.e. Asheron's Call).

I think this is a good thread... and i see some people are ignoring something.... have you guys forget Imperials have airships?, havent you ever imagined maybe there will be instances or even whole maps that will require you to jump platforms, bridges or why not?, maybe even from airship to airship?, i know this not an action RPG game but hell, why SE cant introuce that? dont they keep tellin us they want make the best MORPG ? why not innovate and do something most MOrPGS dont have? and i know, Yoshi said the jump wont be battle related bah blah blah.... maybe we should complain instead we want a useful Jump instead just a "jump around nonsenseless and happily all girlish", i want to believe if we wanted that it would be an emotion not an actual action.

I like how people bicker about jumping in a game, when, in all likeliness, less than 10% of them have jumped in real life.

But didn't they also say you can't jump in active mode?

Anyways, I hope there is free jump, but I'm pretty sure they don't intend for people to be jumping around every time they press the wrong spell.

I hope it is free jump as well. I think people are blowing it way out of proportion and need to calm down.
