    Flying Mount Suggestions

    I love the ability to fly but it lacks a certain... i dont know the word for it, feeling? I'll try to explain:

    -When I'm high in the sky and I immediately shoot straight down into a nose dive, I wish the mount would speed up and show signs of motion blur for the speeding up. As it is right now, I dive bomb and its a slow decent and I don't get the rush like I wish I could. Then you can land making a crater (like the monk move i forget what its called) if you land, or a awesome swooshing noise if you swoop down and back up right before you touch the ground!

    -Do a barrel roll! Maybe add an action (with a recast timer mind you) like the Magitek armor to do stuff like a barrel roll while flying, give the mount a "shriek" sort of and stuff.

    Just things I feel would make the game feel more awe-shocking when you're flying around and such. Other than that the expansion has been pretty awesome. Keep it up!

    I admit, I have wanted to do a barrel roll quite a few times.

    Please do add this to certain flying mounts. Maybe not the primal ponies, when we're able to fly on those. That would be weird. But the dragon and the griffin.

    I bet some more effects like the ones you describe will eventually be put into the game. First and foremost was the ability to even get off the ground! One step at a time!

    i hope that stuff gets quested and isn't just given out. but their current priority should be implementing flight for obvious flight mounts (Ahrima, Bomb Chair, etc).

    100% agree with this. Really looking forward to the Bomb Palanquin flying!

    Banking! Mounts (and people in general) need to lean into turns!
    They just look so stiff and awkward as they are now.

    You know how Batman dives in Arkham Knight? The mounts could do something similar to that.

    Well even if not, flying doesn't feel like flying. It feels like my mount just has an additional axis to move around on. That's just very.... blah. A little more attention could have been paid to not just adding flying, but getting flying to feel right. To have weight and a sense of momentum to it, if that makes sense. Kind of like how on foot my character can accelerate and stop on a dime. It's always felt weightless and weird, like I'm a spectre just floating around, disregarding even basic physics on a whim.

    Is this Final Fantasy or Ace Combat?


    Function first.


    I would like to some some humorous flying mounts, like a Goobue using his arms like a helicopter.
