[dev1008] Petition to have Jumping implement

[Demacia]

I don't like the whole WoW style jumping but I can't blame people for wanting it with the awful map design we have.

Which can be solved much more conveniently (and in a much less annoying way) by further removing environmental collision detection where it doesn't make sense, giving the ability to climb cliffs and drop down from them.
Which is exactly what they're doing, mind you.

I really wish i could see someone give a valid, intelligent argument against jump other then "it's annoying" or bunnies and wtv.... People for jumping gave more then enough reasons on why we should have it and it all made sense and was well thought out.

So in my book it's people for jumping 1, people against jump 0. Until someone makes a valid argument that is.

Unfortunately for this absolutely silly statement, the fact that an argument isn't valid for you doesn't make it less valid.

Plenty valid, compelling and intelligent arguments have been made against jumping. You not liking them has no bearing at all on their validity.

See, fact is that your book is completely inconsequential. The dev's book is what matters, and quite evidently, given the drop in priority of the implementation of jumping, the very clear possibility that it will never be implemented, and the fact that they're instead tweaking environmental collision detection (as many that are against jumping suggested) as a much more convenient feature, it's people for jumping 0, people against jump 1.

Sorry to burst a bubble. Oh wait... I'm not really THAT sorry, mind you.

You talk a lot yet i don't see any of those fabled valid arguments, and there i was getting excited i would see one in that wall of text.

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.

So I'm still waiting to see those arguments that are supposedly "there" and that will make me say "hmm... yeah that kind of makes sense."

That's a wall of text to you?

Wow... No wonder you need a jump button.
