    So about jump.

    In one point of the letter of the producer everyone hops on and starts jumping on top of a tent ...

    Am I the only one who has an issue with this stuff?

    I really hope they'll put an invisible wall of sorts on release.

    I'm okay with jumping as long as they keep it realistic. To hop on top of a tent in one leap? For the tent to look like freaking plastic and hold there as if it was steady ground?

    Hate it.



    Update since people are missing the point of this thread:

    2. In fantasy settings the rules of realism are reestablished based what is believable (which is sustained by logic).
      For example: A wizard harnesses the elements of nature and casts a spell, depleting his mana. He is out of mana, so he can't keep casting. If the wizard were to cast another spell people would cry "no way, he's out of mana!". But they wouldn't complain about the fact it's a guy using magic.
    3. The tent has been modeled to mimic fabric's consistency (you can see it in the folds). Having a bunch of people jump up and down on it is a direct contradiction of what is being shown. Thus it becomes unbelievable in a fantasy environment.
    4. Yoshi has already stated that invisible walls are being positioned in cliffs that go nowhere or that are too high to jump. So the concept of invisible walls IS here. The resource IS already being applied in the game. This thread is only requesting for it to be applied in more places (ie. surfaces which weren't designed to have people on them).

    I really can't believe people are making such a big deal if you can jump or not. I'm sorry, but can't you just be happy instead of finding something else to complain about?

    Why did I sit there and read another one of these, hell why am I even posting in another one of these? I jump on top of tents all the time, I backflip on top of them then face dive into a handstand back on to the ground,problem?

    Seriously. You can freely jump like this in GW2 and objects react similarly. How often do I see people doing stupid stuff like that? Hardly ever. The novelty wears off very quickly and instances of people amassing in certain areas and doing "unrealistic" stuff is rare at best.

    You know....speaking of realism...it's always bothered me that you can run for-ever without getting winded!
    And food? Holy crap! You can eat as much as you want! Completely unreal too.

    And let's not forget about the potties! Can you believe they didn't even include a potty function? Really now!
    We need more realism. Not more jumping.


    .....*facepalm*.....
