Flying in 2.0

**Nexxus** · 12-12-2011 09:00 AM

Would be fun to have his own personnal airship as a house (or a boat) even if it doesn't fly on the map.

Anyway, with the zone and loading screen, i don't think flying would be nice to have.

It would be simple as a mog house, just add a small cut-scene when you enter the airship port that take you on sky and get you to your own ship.

And i see there, a good way of custom it. outdoor like indoor !

honestly, If I allow myself to admit it... I am kind of dismayed by this as well

i'm sure i remember seeing a floating island near LL conected to the ground vy gient chains. in the V2.0 concept art. (or do i dream FF14 when i sleep?) personal airships, and airship battles sound great

The only thing I remember like this was only one Aetheryte Crystal. It wasn't a floating island.

But yeah, as someone mentioned earlier, having a personal/LS/FC Airship would be great even for "landing" in certain zones to let players off.

Not with 2.0, but later as an expansion would be nice

Obviously it shouldn't be just the flying feature but dungeons and islands in the sky, maybe even with parts you can and some parts you can't stand on and in dungeons, you'd have to stop flying sometimes and fall through the "ground"(clouds?) to get deeper into the dungeon or find secret pathways..stuff like that

I'm not a fan of useless flying feature though.

It's neither an island nor an aetheryte, the artwork was of a flying Garlean base.
Well, we already know their flying technology is pretty advanced

No, what I'm talking about is this:

The other thing didn't even occur to me, but that may have been what he was talking about.

no no no and no, this is not Warcraft, the world was NOT designed for flying, not from the core, not ever, so no there won't be flying.

I didn't know you had insider information about the new server structure and game engine... You should give us infos more often.

You can shove that sarcasm right back where you pulled it out from they're changing the engine, not making a new game.
