Pointless Cut Scenes

Like I said, it was designed so that nobody ever has to wait for the elevator.

In the Metalworks, there were two elevators, one on each floor at any given time, so you generally didn't hvae to wait much. But with one elevator, that goes to multiple different destinations, the cutscene method is necessary to eliminate waiting for someone else to finish using it.

I would rather that the lift just took you to the black screen that your going to get anyways regardless if you watch or not then have to deal with the CS. I know others do not feel as I do so that is why I suggested a toggle for this. If we can make both groups happy then we should.

Take the stairs because plenty of people have the same problem?

No, that's SE fault for not seeing this bug. If that was the case, I woulda played a different MMO when this game came out.

Some people wont be happy until they can type...

<pos>X:__Y:__

and teleport (Free of charge of course) to their destination because they have precious little time to waste going from one place the the next.

I still don't see the problem for a skip cutscene thing in settings.

Some people don't like cutscenes, especially when they crash your game.

if they are skipable sure

going to have to live with the few that crash you though until they plain fix them, or you know avoid them.

A teleport to pos would be horrible. I'm just saying I don't need a CS for every little thing I do and would like a auto skip option so I don't have to press skip every time.

Yea, the PS3 can't load these area's into memory though so u less they make uldah smaller in 2.0, move the airship platform or have streaming to load area's (which is unlikely given they are going with instance based zones) its unlikely this will happen.
