Swimming and underwater content?

[Evangela]

I can't wait to see the day that oldschool players have to rage quit

JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA

[Coombah]

THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME

Wow, what great news. Can't wait for swimming. YOSHI-P!! Let us climb like in Assassin's Creed - on rocks. Not buildings, but rocks, like the big mountains in Coerthas.

[Evangela]

I want to climb on buildings too

I'm going to the top of Uldah and dive to the ground, make oldschool players annoy

[Corrderio]

You're already annoying sounding like a broken record

[Dreadnought]

i can deal with swimming, but underwater combat makes even less sense than blasting things with "Fire III"
it just looks stupid to me when my pyromancer in Rift has to do underwater fighting.
water resistance
water extinguishes heat - ash colored bubbles would be needed
moving exerts extra energy underwater - im assuming the character would be holding his breath?
camera angles tend to be annoying when your near the surface

meh, then again what the hell do i know, im pro restriction free jump feature...

[Poppa]

I cant wait to bust out mah swimmies and speedo!!

[Dragonheart]

In favor for swimming and water content!

[Rinsui]

On top of being an awesome opportunity for thrilling new mechanics,
it may actually help to weed out some of the nay-sayers from 1980.
Win-win.

Wife, bring me my yellow swimming undies. The tight ones.
