[dev1008] Petition to have Jumping implement

[Tezz_Xivectro]

So jumping is still being added just not yet. That's cool. Yay for modernizing the game from the historic ages with jump and various other cool features

For the time being it's not on the list of current things to do. They still haven't determined if they will or not. Nothing else can be said about it with certainty.

When i first read the list updates and saw the revision of jump i knew the forum was going to explode. Just yesterday(?) it was all peaceful and many were surprised. I was hoping they would have found something newer to dramatize. This is boring (luckily SE locked the other jump thread).

It is in the list of future things.

Future Tasks being put in Current Tasks could take months. Not worth the effort for the time being.

Aside from the June update, i'd like to know if FF14 will be at E3.

meh, i never cared for jumping but it has been a lot easier to move around the terrain since their last patch so more collision detection tweaks and i'm fine.

I'll stand by my opinion and say "No" I do not want jumping in this game in any way/shape/form. Thats just my opinion on the matter.

just because you don't like it?

Face it, there's legitimate reasons that it's not needed, hence why Yoshida himself says it's very low priority instead of normal priority where it was.

Yoshi-P:

Examination of the implementation of jumping(moved from Current Tasks as lower priority)
*Implementation dependent upon risk analysis

The main argument against it, as people love to ignore, is they're changing collision detections, which is all jumping is, a movement to get around CD.

As I said in my post which I'm not quite sure if you read, I think the main problem people have with simply adding in "advanced collision detection" is the fact that it looks like you are sliding up and down walls, it looks completely silly, it looks worse than if they just added jump in my opinion.

We don't know if it's going to slide or if they're going to change it.

However, a player-controlled jump-anywhere button would result in bunny hops. You simply can't deny that there will always be people who are going to spam the jump button.

What people don't realize is with jump you're actually sliding up and down terrain as well, just with a different animation. Your position is being tracked which is sliding up and down the axis when you jump onto and up cliff faces. This is why if you jump you can notice that your character "pops" up higher while in mid air if you jump at a correct point that puts you onto the cliff face. This happens in quite a bit of even offline games.

What they did here was just take out the jump animation portion of it, but the mechanic is in essence the same.
