Will Mounts be able to jump?

If people jumping around aggravates you that much, then you should really take some time off of a video game. Why can't an MMO become a little bit of platforming too? Archers jumping to a higher spot to stay out of AoE range, delving through dungeons that require more than just tank and spank..

I mean you can do many things with jump, NOT just focus on people jumping in town.

-Don't say something that you have no idea, you don't know me ^.^
-A higher spot? Now we are going to get 50feet jumps? If its just a few feet above you, you should have to walk up it.
- MMOs I feel, should be a simulator, not maple story. Just play that if you want platforming you get TONS of it.
- You will still be tank and spank no matter what..........
-No, no you can't, not in an "turn" base mmo, in an action mmo, yes maybe, but this is not an action mmo.

Only way I will support jump, if its "Press x" when you get to a stupid ledge.

No.

I want jumping. Also mounts should only have scripted jumping. And only mounts that look as though they're capable of jumping. Give some perks over others. Like the Gobbue can move faster on marsh-like areas. Drakes can bypass most of Mor Dhona mobs, etc. Stuff like that would be interesting.

Chocobos will be standard fare, but they have more accessibility over the world over a Gobbue/Drake/etc.

I've yet to see anyone say "It's not FF", considering I recall doing all 3 in pretty much every FF game I've played (including XI have some climbing style mechanics even if it was a CG scene.)

Let's not forget that FFXIII-2 actually implements a free jump. So that excuse is pretty much thrown out of the window.
