[dev1008] Petition to have Jumping implement

[Onidemon]

And? Should we demand starships and aliens because other MMOs have it?

90-95% of mmos have starships and aliens? That's some news to me, Goddamn we should too then! The empire in FFXIV sure has the technology for it and aliens(Jenova FFVII) is not unheard of in a FF game. Another invalid argument.

You can read back on the multiple threads (some of which opened by the same troll that quite obviously thinks that his issues are much more important than anyone else's and deserve multiple places to be discussed, lol) on this topic and find plenty.

Again, the fact that an argument isn't valid *for you* has absolutely no bearing on it's actual validity. No one is here to convince you, as convincing you, or any other random forum poster, is absolutely inconsequential.

Why would i read back when i have someone against Jumping right here trying to make his point but is yet to provide me with a single argument against jumping.

Dude just give it up you lost that battle...

Yet 90% of mmorpgs have jumping.... besides.. hmmm... FFXI and FFXIV?

They have jumping, but you know what else they lack?

Exploration through Jumping.

Ability to dodge enemy attacks.

So while "90%" have jumping that's all it is...jumping. No exotic use for it.

I actually pray we don't have to jump around to evade. Actually, if added, we shouldn't be able to jump while in combat.
Exploration on the other hand sounds fun.

Well yeah you can't have dodging by jumping if a game's combat won't let you.. especially if they are going back to auto-attack.
Elexia, you are so funny

I would love to have scalable terrain and platforming elements that use jump. It will probably never happen in this game, though.

Unless they redesign all of the current maps to make certain areas only discoverable by jumping..

It really isn't needed. It would end up towards the end of the priority list if they did consider the feature.

The dev put it as a low priority simply because if you have to chose between jumping and the battle system/jobs etc it's quite clear which deserves more attention at the moment.

Not just battle adjustments, but pretty much put Jumping behind the entire game development. Its not a "Holy shit we need to add this ASAP" feature. Not at all.

The only reason jumping would be seen useful are the small ledges that we still cant seem to pass. Well, even with jumping, we still wouldn't be able to pass that "invisible wall."

All they really need to do is get rid of that invisible wall so that people can get passed.

I'm waiting for those valid arguments too against jump as well...

Game will be just fine without it. No other argument needed = D

fine is not good enough, sorry. People want awesome and that includes jump. Valid argument?

Too bad that the equation jumping = awesome is your opinion only. Quite obviously a lot of people (and the dev team) disagree.

No, dev agree jump is needed, in fact they suggested it. The only thing that happened now is that they decided the battle and the complete rework of the game was to be done first.
