[dev1008] Petition to have Jumping implement

[Gramul]

It has nothing to do with WoW or Aion, it has to do with the fact that the game is 3D.

A 3D game needs to have some kind of jumping, either a contextual jumping or a jump button, or else navigating the terrain will be super annoying (which it was in FFXI).

Was it also annoying in every single player RPG sense 3D games began?

False.

They can keep invisible walls to stop you from jumping over a rock all the same.

People seem to be deeply confused.

I unlocked DRG this past week, and the first ability they gave me was "Jump". A few levels later, I got "Elusive Jump". At the end, I got "Dragonfire Dive" which is also a jump ability.

You got three of them and one of them even spews fire!

(Also, Full Thrust and Doomspike.)

I don't understand why anyone would be for invisible walls in a game where they want immersion, but sure.

When did they say they wanted immersion?

If I can't even jump over a .5ft cliff now with my dragoon...what's going to make a difference with a jumping action?

... to allow you to jump over that .5ft obstacle.

This is not rocket science.

Lol who cares, why was this thread dug up, why are people even posting in it?

We are getting jump.

Sorry to those that don't like it and hurray to those that do.

[Polgara]

We already had one before. It sucked ass.

I didn't say implement a previous released real time battle system.
One that would work. Wait-attack systems are out of date, and they get boring quickly.

It's like you're not even reading what I'm typing.
I KNOW about the redesign. But the structure of the CURRENT WORLD is not propperly structured for it.

The point I'm trying to make is that the world redesign will have to be focoused around the idea of jumping to avoid issues like being trapped or entering areas you're not supposed to be or otherwise making the feature about as usefull as an emote you can use at the push of a button.

Of course! We all want maps that support jumping very well!
That goes without saying... or not, haha.

I agree with some of what you say Gramul, that's why the jump debate is still on-going. We have no proof the devs are not repeating the same mistake again. Only a vague date of a future jumping feature.

I believe all maps should be designed two-folds: main non-jumping routes, remote/hidden paths that require some jumping and careful walking (no more bottomless pits with invisible wall please, I want to be able to fall and make monsters fall ).
You want to reach something you are not "supposed" to reach, jump to it (but designed to actually support someone going there with jumping, like rooftops, bottomless cliff sides, etc.)!

That way, non-jumper players can continue to play as usual and use the main routes. Jumpers can use the shortcuts and explore further (and spy on non-jumpers from rooftops).

go to your nearest lake and go jump in it and go swimming.
dont want ff11 stuff in 14? we dont want your stupid wow/aion jump in 14 either.
shut up about it already..............

wow, just got curious to see your post so far, most of your post are full of hate and nothing contructive always complain at everyone else's idea without even do a good comentary or sugestion, are you a hater?.

I believe they might give us this option later on when they give us an use for it, so far we have the jump from drg wich is very practical and useful besides the fact of only reset hate , example, when you run low on HP or more monster just linked at yah and get the urge to scape from them.

And yes i do jump just to make fun of it sometimes but it has a cool down timer to avoid people spam it, i bet most people give down to the temptation while playin drg and do it just cause its fun.
