Jumping Chocobo's?!?!?!

Actually, in the latest interview (the community team interview) he said we were getting the traditional unrestricted jump we find in most MMOs.

Think that's where I read it at too but got the wrong idea. I just hope jumping isn't like on WoW.

Why does jumping always have to be tied together with world of warcraft... it isnt the only mmo or rpg with jumping in it... If chocobos will be able to jump, its gonna look a lot more realistic than that cartoony game.

WoW invented jumping, before WoW i don't think people even jumped IRL

So WoW helped to invent basketball? Amazing ...

Imagine a whole party of chocobos jumping around "World of Warcraft" style.

You just shortened my life by at least 5 years!!!

As long as it doesn't look stupid, it won't be stupid.

I'm sure SE can do animations a lot better than Blizzard can. Even if they allow nonstop jumping for Chocobos, or even just your own character, it'll look much better than WoW's jumping.

It would be cool to implement jumping in the same fashion that FFX did it.
You find a small yellow chocobo feather, and it takes you somewhere that's hidden away.
To me that would be awesome! =)

Off topic: Fucking Taiji of X Japan died today. R.I.P ;(

Mmmh Jump....only another win for spammer-->nonsense

In most mmos people hop like bunnies, I would like to avoid this. Yoshi-P describe jank jump that wouldn't help anyone get anywhere faster, made me smile. If i saw a person jumping repeatedly in game for no reason, multiple times (like oh saw that guy two days ago jumping like a bunny asshole, and now i see him again today), thats probably a legit reason in my mind to end up on my blist. I know its sad.

He said this only to character jump
With new regions and the planned new design of the current regions SE could make places where you need a chocobo to go there like in the Grand Pulse region in FF XIII. Would it be a island in a big lake or a cave on the other side of a clif.

I can see it. A Roegadyn full Haubergon-armored on a full-armored Chocobo saying:

"Pff... Screw gravity!" Then acrobatic jumping around the party saying "Problems?"
