    Please Do Not Implement Jumping!

    This is so annoying. Please don't take a page from WoW on this one. I really don't want to see everyone hopping around like bunnies. It's unrealistic and it looks tacky in what I thought was supposed to be a high-class game. I understand that people get bored walking and running everywhere and that jumping gives you something to do while you run the 5,000 kilometer journey between levegroup camps, but jumping isn't the solution.

    Like if you hate jumping.

    I'm not sure if your post is supposed to be sarcastic or if you mean it... but you should go post here instead of starting a new thread that is currently being actively discussed.

    I thought the whole idea behind the jumping system was to make it possible to jump up/down/ and fall down high ledges and the such. I don't believe the intention behind the addition of jumping was so that people will bunny-hop all day long so as long as people use it as the developers had intended (which they will) then that's really all that matters.

    Also, real-life invented jumping, not another video game. So if you want to blame anything for this blame the real world, and gravity. B)

    How high can you jump in real life? twice your own height?
    It's either unrealistic, or it's not very useful.

    Jump would not be a problem if it's controlled. I personally don't want to see a player jumping constantly. I know some players are thinking of using jump as a method of getting over some of the annoying crevices, hills, and choppy terrain in the game. Instead, better collision should be implemented.

    Overall I don't believe jump will be a problem with the game if implemented with controls on it. But at the moment I don't think focus should be on jump at all. There are a lot more important things in development that the dev. teams should stay focused on. So in the future maybe jump, but I will not be mad if it comes or not.

    Seraphite, what's up man. Haven't seen you since beta. Why are you just popping up now? I support jumping though, there's no reason it has to be like WoW. It could be more like ICO or Assassin's Creed, and it would be a great tool for exploring some of those mountains in Coerthas. This is a virtual world, I'd like to do more than just fight in a dungeon.

    Most current MMO gamers I feel were likely too young or virgin to the genre and WoW just happened to be the MMO out at the time they were able to finally play them.
