[Dev1008] Makeshift Jumping Implementation Poll

If you don't want to jump just don't jump when they implemented it

unless your real reason is "I don't want to see other jumping around me!" it should be fine

So since there are already two different threads (actually more, because everyone thinks that their post seems so important that it deserves a separate thread, apparently), you felt the need to open another?

Looks like it's not. At least according to this development team, and quite obviously many agree with them. Thankfully, I may add.

Ultimately seeing people jumping around in a MMORPG looks incredibly stupid, especially considering the fact that massive roegadyns in full armor have to jump the same height as lalafells with tiny stumps as legs, which would collide in an extremely jarring way with the realistic art direction of this game. Cartoonish games -> That way.

What has this got to do with WoW? Every other non-SE fantasy MMO has jump.

I personally think being able to jump up or down a 3ft ledge is quite convenient.

Whatever, the people remaining in this game are either incredibly patient or fanboys who are blind to the reasons the vast majority of the people who bought the game quit. No point arguing with them.

What about a realistic jumping such as Monster hunter? you can jump over only small cliff (realistic height that human can do). and for bigger one, you have to climb it up slowly (but still better than walk around because your character is disable and can't climb it up at all )

note at poll:
In my opinion, I think this is unfair because you separate the people who want jumping into 2 posts (so the vote will be divided psychologically), but only have 1 post for people who not want jumping (get full vote).

I think the fair poll would be "Want jump" vs "No jump" first. and the next step for "unlimit" or "limit" come after the "Want jump" win.

Really? Everyone quit because of the lack of jumping?

Or was it...
A horrible battle system that made crafting & gathering more enjoyable than fighting. Poor UI & controls. No AH. Very little content and the content that's there is boring. No Chocobos or other travel. The list goes on.

That is my reason.

WRONG! Ever played Atlantica? Guild Wars? Ryzom? Star Wars Galaxies? All of these are non-SE MMOs that didn't have jump and there are many more.

Yes.

This thread combines the two existing thread and includes a middle ground along with a makeshift poll. This is a different thread that condenses those 3 parts into one thread.

If anything the originals should be buried while this one lives on.

I gave the reason for the third option. There is always a gray area jump and no jump is too black and white to be the only questions on the poll.

You're just upset that my thread is winning.

Also for those whining about the multiple threads thing... I made my thread because the other one is called "Petition to have jumping implemented", as online petitions are an incredibly childish and immature way to get things done, and the OP's post reflected only one side of the argument (if you can even call it a side). So, I made my thread to represent the other side of the leaf in a more civil, polite manner (note the "please" and lack of "petition").
