Jumping confirmed

[Jynx]

Let's look at the nice front-flippy animation for that GLA weapon skill, or the big jump on Doomspike II.. Why is a jump as high as in the concept video that unreasonable?

I guess I'll reiterate my above point.

Attack =/= spamable action outside of fights and possibly in town.

I'm sorry I thought you were commenting on something that isn't possible, not some subjective action you just don't like.
So we're all in agreeance that the jumping shown, based on current character athleticism as seen in current abilities, is possible.. Good to know.

The fact of the matter is, why, if it's possible within a fight, holding a weapon, is it not possible outside of a fight, even with repeated use? Because you "don't want to have to look at people jump more than one time in a row because it's slightly annoying to you" is not an answer.

"don't want to have to look at people jump more than one time in a row because it's slightly annoying to you" is not an answer.

I'm sorry but why isn't this a option? It's a valid complaint if you ask me. I can only speak on my behalf but I think a jump outside of battle is pointless and not needed.

Obviously not everyone shares this opinion with me, but I'll still state mine as often as I want too as long as the developers continue to ask for my feedback. My concerns are with how I observe the game Athstetically, in my opinion Bunny hopping ruins the games athstetic looks.

That's fine for you to feel that way, and I don't really care if you find it annoying or not, but please don't mix the argument of a plausible jump height with the argument of whether people find it annoying.

Jumping in every MMO is very awkward looking, but still something that players in this day and age want. If nothing else, it proves they are listening to what the majority want, even if it's not really the best thing for the game.

Listening to the majority is bad because the majority is BAD AT THE GAME.

Thats a nice generalization there. Lets make another.

The minority are even worse cause they cannot adapt to change.

I find it mind blowing that the subject of jumping in an mmorpg can be so volatile. It's not worth investing the energy into these discussions. If jumping is in, it's in and we will all deal with it.

"Standard." Says who? Ah, right. No innovation allowed. Sorry. SE has the chance to create an entirely new atmosphere for MMOs that doesn't rely on vertical jumping. But no, "we" all want vertical jumping and Lalafell jumping 10 feet in the air. Gotcha. Good thing "we" cleared that up. I'm glad you're here to talk for me and everyone else, as well as setting standards for games.

leaving something out is by no means innovation...

Can't believe it's taken almost 3 entire days for this to reach 40 pages.

yeah, i bet the devs at SE dunno if they should laugh cry or just /facepalm.
