[dev1008] Petition to have Jumping implement

[Onidemon]

Then i assume you are skimming over everyone's posts and only hear what you want to hear. There are valid arguments coming from either side, but its the people that are for jump implementation that are being the obnoxious children.

All you are saying is that the people that are against it have no valid arguments, and you dont even care to explain why their arguments do not work. No, you are only stating that they are wrong, period, end of story.

At least be constructive if you are going to stand by your opinion, and stop pointing out how others' opinions are all wrong but yours.

I don't want jumping! It's annoying me to see you do it! You look like a monkey! You are breaking my immersion! = Children

Jumping can introduce interesting gameplay mechanics. Jumping can give your character more mobility and freedom. It helps avoid obstacles by jumping over them rather then going around. Future level design can use jumping for some clever and fun gameplay= adults with valid constructive arguments.

Why are we even arguing about this?

[Onidemon]

probably because this game (thank goodness) is a MMORPG, and not a platformer.

Super Mario galaxy -> that way.

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

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

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

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.

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

The only valid arguments against jumping is that FF14's design does not call for it. Simply, we do not, realistically, NEED it (read: need != want). Another is that it takes up development time when they should be focusing on other things.

Other than that, i believe it should be added eventually. It seems to do more good than bad in abstract.

Again, i have to say.

...Please, by god. Tell me on a scale of importance, 1-10 how Jumping is important to this game.

This is how a lot of people feel about this, including me. Though I don't seem to understand why people think we are still against jumping.

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

[Evangela]

this game is not even "fine"...

Personally, i don't care if i can jump or not as long as you can't bunny-hop spam. That's one of the biggest complaints for most people (esp. FF11 players). There are ways around jump spamming, so i hope SE takes this into consideration.
