Jump Feature

I understand this may be a subject people don't want to hear about (then again what isn't?), but would the devs be able to provide any insight on whether or not this is still being considered for future implementation? It hasn't been officially mentioned in so long and I can't help but wonder if it has been done away with altogether.

i actually have a friend, who won't play because there is no "jump". I hate him for that.

I really dislike the idea of jumping, mainly because it leads to exploitation, and also gives people the chance to hop around all over the place, and honestly, in real life, how often do you see someone jumping?

FU!@^%$@^**((*&^%$#@#$%^% NO. Not needed.

I don't think it will be implemented. Yoshida stated in the past that if it was implemented, jumping would only be used as a cosmetic action and not used for battle gameplay/strategy. I personally don't see the point in adding it if it serves no real purpose to gameplay.

This thread is awesome :D ahahahahah

I think it's silly that people don't want jumping because "people will abuse it". As if there aren't things that people abuse already, like spamming emotes and spamming summon/dismount of Chocobos.

While I do like some of your posts, this one was ridiculous.

Not needed it does not help in gameplay at all if the jump is for

Area that rocks are flying and you have to jump one rock to other there a action you can do to jump rock to rock. Then i'm fine by that if there jumping like other games then it not really needed.

The new standard answer: "Coming in 2.0, thank you for your patience!"

Pretty sure if it will be implemented, it's going to be used like all the other Final Fantasy's and that it will be used via hitting an action icon instead of just hoping around like some fool.

Missing a jump only to have to run a long distance just to try it again is the thing that I hate the most. It is the reason I dont buy many games with a jump feature.

It is even worse in multiplayer games because the person who failed gets seperated from the group, and now everyone is upset because their gameplay just ground to a halt due to something as silly as jump.

In addition, with the servers not knowing where you are all the time... it makes jumps even more difficult.

Bayohne already confirmed that jump was coming in a post saying that to cancel spells players could hit the jump button. A lot of people thought he was kidding but he clarified that he wasn't.

^ thinks everyone who posts links to their main character...

And yes, people do abuse those things. I almost always see a miqo abusing /stretch because of the extremely suggestive moans they make. I have also seen people spam on and off their chocobos.

Do we have the same friend? O_o

This is absolutely the last thing on my mind. Why in the hell does it matter? This isn't Aion, you cant glide or fly and there is nothing really to jump over. Waste of time.

They're adding it, it's already been confirmed. History repeats.

Wow, you must be so super cool because you love using Razer products. Judgmental prude.

I don't know why ppl keep starting pointless threads like this... jump is coming. It will be used to cancel spells. Stop thinking of WoW. Jumping is a fundamental form of movement in mmo's. Deal with it and stop crying.
