you mean when they are sitting? but... ITS SO CUTE!

yeah, someone like it but someone hate it... the fact is it's not that important to have ability to on/off it

jumping is the same, someone might annoy it but's not that matter...

What did you even just say?

I don't know about you, but when I'm adventuring, I like to be able to jump across stuff, and climb up stuff, not walk and run unrealistically up cliff faces like some magical cripple.

Just have a /togglerealism (/treal for short) off. Everyones happy. lol

People say there's no reason for jumping, well maybe that's because jumping isn't in the game. Just maybe? (duh).

Jumping adds new avenues for exploration and combat. How is it invalid to include something that expands upon already-existing systems (exploration and combat for example)?

So when there is jumping, there is automatically reasons for jumping?

wuuuuuuuut

Suddenly the world becomes a smorgasbord of vertical differences and holes, gaps and puddles to hop over. A galore of secret dungeons you can only get to by jumping like a Crash Bandicoot. It's like this:

*puff*

And the world has changed!

EDIT: Snapping your fingers also works occasionally.

There could be new dungeons or areas that require you to jump/climb over stuff too. The world is not all flatlands....

When there is jumping, there can be reasons for jumping, but never before if the game is designed around its exclusion. How many times are we going to go through this before you understand.

Then we should have real jump anyone wearing armor weapons or shield their jump height is reduced 90% and the max jump height from standing should be about where the top of the chars shins would be. and running makes you jump longer but not higher. If they do it this way I agree.

I just said it that way since people are crying realism. But if it was FF dis way I wouldn't mind. Wouldn't see that char again for a few mins =)

Because all final fantasy worlds be the same.

If we can have dissidia battle system in XIV... that's rock!!

Oh! I forgot to mention air dashing. I would like air dashing implemented as well please.

After advent children, it became a must@!

Quick question, if so many people spend their time jumping in other MMO, isn't it a BIG HINT that jumping is really appreciated by a lot of players? Just saying.

Oh, and whatever happens, people will always be annoyed for a reason or another: "I hate to see you jump, stop that", "I hate to see your Lalafell head shake, stop that", "Stop shouting, it's clogging my chat log", "Don't craft too close to me, I can't see my crystal properly", "Stop pulling the monster's aggro on you, it's annoying", "Waiting for the action to be performed while gathering is annoying, please make it really fast. Time is money, I'm not here to have fun"...

Seriously? Yes, unfortunately. I just hope some players realize they have no obligation to play this game and interact with other persons. It's called single player game.




(bottom note, sorry for the sarcasm and semi-hate comments, but hopefully the message will be clearer like this)

Because there really needs to be 2 threads arguing over the exact same thing? Games are games, if someone having fun offends you maybe games are not for you.

Maybe they should add a feature that randomly trips you giving you a crippling debuff when you walk over things instead of jumping over/going around.

you have to play another MMO with jumping feature...

if you ever jump off the 50 foot cliff to the lake and then swim, you'll ask for it in XIV too! because it's very fun

In Aion you can fly.... I want wings. Or a chocobo.... with wings.

In Gran Turismo 5 you can drive A CAR.

I want a car

In GTA IV you can jump, drive a car, kill people, date a girl

OMG i want a car too!

Dissidia style jumping is tacky, at least for a game like FFXIV. Which is why the R46 cutscene annoyed me (people flying all over the place). WTF.

Realistic jumping, climbing, swimming, hopping, please.

Maybe Hi-jumping with less float involved.

I remember Zidane being able to jump like 9 times in a row in that game.

NINE TIMES. That is nine times more fun than jumping once! Although there are diminishing returns after the 4th jump..

Summoners can fly with Valefore or Bahamut

I want to be able to double-jump 9 times!

Jumping Puzzles with dangers of falling to your death always result in complaints because of things like "So I lagged right when I jumped and the game thought I jumped off the cliff instead of across to the next platform." I did it in Wailing Caverns and it killed me.

Well learn to lag less! rar. lol

Just for a reference on how high people in eorzea can jump at a possible minimum.

And this one probably doesnt even count but hey its a taru

Air jump, air dash and be able to use spells mid-air :D

A controlled jump like FFIX, FFX, FFXIII etc would be nice. If they made it look fairly realistic. That's the only way I would ever be happy with jump being added to the game.

Is anyone forcing you to jump if it's implemented? What is it in your childhood that made you get so offensive when seeing jumping people? You know what I think hyposensibilisation is the best treatment, you just have to face your fears and play a game with a lot of jumping people in it.

yet again I have to remind you that Free Realms has free jump with no cooldown timers and even though mostly kids play it most people aren't abusing the feature so what makes you think people would abuse it in this game?

You can indeed jump in most PLATFORMERS. Different genre.

Mixing genres is forbidden? Isn't it by mixing concepts that new popular genres are created? :o

It's not forbidden, but the logic is pretty flawed. It's like saying every MMO should have a guns and exploding body parts because Quake does.
