Jumping Risk Assessment

[SuzakuCMX]

I still support the "only in some spots" jumping style of FFXIII.
And bullcrap on that "Only 1/5 people in WoW bunnyhop!" statement. Every Rogue bunnyhops in WoW, and even then, some other people do it to do it. Even so, 20% of the people I see bunnyhopping? Yeah, no thanks.

That's not why I don't support it though. It'd just be kinda weird for them to have jumping without anything to do with it :L They'd have to make it so there's something to actually DO with jumping (such as jumping puzzles in dungeons) before they actually implement jumping for me...otherwise, there's no reason to actually have voluntary jumping other than bunnyhopping :/ Any cliff you could jump on/over right now makes you walk on/off it instead. The furthest they could do to "jump" with that is make it the auto-jump from FFXIII.

Thats the only "type" of Jump I would want at least for me anyways, Is to Jump where it's Needed to jump =)

One of the reasons why I quit WoW was because of the Bunny hoppers in WoW. Just sayin'

You SEE SE??? This is what happens when you threaten to implement jumping! Starlord is gonna bail the second he sees the massive influx of players drawn to the jumping feature. Don't let this happen SE! Starlord is the kind of gamer you want to have around.

Any Strategy while jumping? Not really Any Battling Changes that occur while jumping? Not really Only thing Jumping does is turn them into Mario/bunny hoppers that can cause Conflicts with players.

Starlord outs =)

Thank you Starlord you and I see eye to eye. There is not a 1 percent chance out of 2 that jumping could add any strategic element to battles whatsoever. Jumping over ground effects from a boss would not add in any way to strategy or fun at all. It would only be a stupid hassle, which is why jumping shouldn't be implemented. Also yes it causes conflicts with other players. MAJOR conflicts! I once witnessed a 3 day power battle in WoW started over 1 single bunny hopper in Goldshire. We are talking practically riots in the streets. Just imagine, 1 player somewhere, hitting the jump button over and over.. and over.. and over.. and over.. throwing the entire server into a blind, uncontrollable rage. Because it has nothing to do with maturity if you get upset over someone bunny hopping. You can be a totally mature person and see that one person bunny hopping, and quit the game. It's SE's responsibility to make sure the game is acceptable to the type of player that can't stand to see bunny hopping. I'm pretty sure it said that somewhere on the website before the new team took over.

When one person jumps they all start to jump...

I don't mind Limited Jumping that has some sort of immersion purpose to it, but free for all jumping.. not my style

I wont leave the game over jumping, mainly because I love the Final Fantasy feel of the game.. However, jumping would take a step backwards in the Final Fantasy feel of the game, Correct me if im wrong.. there wasn't any form of jumping ( excluding Chocobo related jumping) in any of the Final Fantasy games.

Quitting a game because of jump is illogical , immoral, and plain ignorant. Neptune there was many battles in WoW and other games where jump was utilized effectively and without hassle. It adds options and some flair to the game whether you dislike it or not, you are stating opinion and I am stating facts. In my honest opinion if you quit a game because you see someone jumping or bunny hopping, the game is way better off without you playing and giving any criticism at all and your opinion should be void.

I said one of the reasons why I quit Wow, there were other elements of Wow that made me stop playing, Jump was just one of them

Sad but true, lot of people in this world go around getting their panties in a bunch over stuff that has no real impact on their lives.

If the level design starts requiring jumping in a serious way, I may very well be out. It's not the style of gameplay I expect from a Final Fantasy title. That is not illogical, immoral or ignorant. I just do not enjoy attempting jumping puzzles over and over until I finally get through. If I do not enjoy, I should not play.

If jump is available, but not heavily required, then it doesn't impact me.
