Thread: No Flying in 5.0???

Benchmark shows flying in 5.0 zones. Overall, I like the non-flying ARR zones better. They look more beautiful. It's too late to go back to non-flying zones though.

Seems like an overreaction given that we know for sure that there IS flight in 5.0.....

It will be tagged 3.0/4.0 because it affects those expansions. Either because that's where the mounts originated, or because that's where they'll now be able to fly where they previously couldn't.

If you still need further confirmation, go to about 10:30 into this VOD and he shows off flying from the last live letter. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/439126280

the benchmark clearly shown we are flying left and right... and underwater.

Blizz did it to cut corners and save money :P And it was a really dumb choice

But also I sincerely doubt they'd just up and poof flying with no word whatsoever. It probably just didn't make it into the preliminary patch notes.

When they first introduced flying I did think it was stupid GC choco couldn't fly not to mention you got a black chocobo that could fly but you had to find the currents to be able to fly. Having just finished Heavensward, it was irritating that gathering was being hampered by having to quest currents and progress MSQ to be able to get to some currents.

Well they said the live letter that they use Aether to be able to fly
