Toggle Jump

[Zantetsuken]

In case some people have difficulty letting this sink in:

Yoshida tapped on the space bar and his male miqo’te jumped up (though due to the nature of the current version there wasn’t any animation for it. There are no plans for using the jump for any elements of gameplay it’s just there for those that want to jump. You won’t be able to jump to avoid Ifrit’s attacks or anything.

Yep, useless.

A jump toggle doesn't seem like such a bad idea in light of this - and quite frankly, it was a waste of resources.

**I seriously hope I'm wrong on this, and they give jumping a real purpose (eg. FFX-2, FFXIII, etc), but we have zero evidence at all that this is anything more than: /loljump

(No, Thanks)

If you read the thread, i did say im not a fans of jumping, the amount of shit i would give is none whether they implements it or not, i am just against what i think is a silly ideas and waste of time.

Smartest comment in this thread...

I'm not particularly against jump, but when it's implemented I want some use out of it. Otherwise....it really is a waste of time, what would be the point of introducing a new mechanic and not make any use out of it>.> Hell Just give us some platforming elements where we have to sorta climb a mountain or something...

Exactly, and I'm seriously surprised people aren't upset about this particular issue.

He also said in another interview that they may add some game play mechanics to the jump feature in future, there is only so much they can do at once.

There will be many things which will be added post 2.0, so get ya panties unfurled and quieten down.

Hmm is that pre or during/post E3? Cuz I don't think Yoshida would contradict the latest statement o.O The only thing he ever mentioned wanting mechanics revolving around this kind of feature was swimming if he sees a need for it.

Glad its coming, love getting to random places with it. Also I'm one of those people that like to spam jump, no reason don't know why. Maybe because it keeps me focused and doing something?

You won't be getting to random places with jump here so unless you like spamming jump just to see it then you'll definitely be happy.

Jumping as a purely non-essential mechanic is annoying enough. Christ help us all if it DID affect battle.

We're already getting slaughtered by positioning fights on the Primals and now you want to add a 3rd axis?!

People might argue that Jump is a waste of resources, yes i do somewhat agree it is a somewhat waste of resources because i too am not a big fans of jumping coming from FFXI. However, it is probably already done, you can't undo what has been done.

This jump-filter ideas however have not been done and i think its a waste of resources.

Yet ..

There will plenty of opportunity for them to add places and area's that take advantage of it, especially if people ask for it.

Not really somethin you ask for, somethin you just find and abuse xD
