If it's the case that it doesn't serve any purpose at all, it shouldn't even be implented until it does.

Word of God says they have no plans for it, so I wouldn't exactly hold my breath.

FFXIV got terrible scores becasue of jumps

Now I know that's not exactly your point but the massive gap in logic you have is have with this argument is a bit daunting.

Your main point is that FFXIV did what every other MMO didn't, it didn't copy WoW and tried to forge it's own style of MMO based on it's previous entry in the genre that faired fairly decently. Hell maybe if they tried to emulate FFXI a bit more we wouldn't be in this situation would we?

But let's blame stuff like.

Surplus
bland world design
bland quest design
lack of content
Wonky UI
stamina system
Battle regimens
tons of other stuff.

On the players right? it's because of us dinosaures that FFXIV turned out the way it did. Spot on there chap...spot on.

I haven't said anything even remotely like this. I haven't brought up WoW at all. The fuck are you on about?

I said nothing like this at all either. No where did I say the initial launch was the players fault. But you can count lack of jumping as one of the marks against this game at launch, and come 2.0 when its missing because of people like you, and this game is a laughing stock once again, damn right part of the blame is going to be on you guys.

No! I didn't say Jumping will bring in subscribers!
Prepare for your game to fail because you guys didn't let them include Jumping!

That was a painfully obviously contradiction in a single Period flat.

I did not say the game will get 10.0's and be flawless because of adding jumping. All I have ever said is that this game will still be a joke if you guys get your way even after people complained about this shit and made it clear that it was a needed feature.

i will be dissapointed if jump is only an emote...

i wanted maps where you need to jump over rocks to access somewhere, to stop getting stuck on a rock in the field, or to evade a trap in a boss...

I cant get why people dont want jump to do things like this. Photorealistic graphics game and jump is an emote?

[Griss]

You know why people spam jump. two reasons they like hitting a key while idle to "do something" currently in xiv people run around. Or they do it just to piss off people who are anal retentive about people "jumping" to much.

I find this rather pathetic really. We've got characters jumping out of visiual spectrum as a game mechanic, yet we can't have it as a bit of fun.

Should my Jump and Elusive jump both have a filter too. Because I can randomly jump on a weak monster and kill it just for fun. Or elusive jump straight into your crowd.

How about Leg Sweep? I don't need a target for that, just TP, and I can generate that with Invigorate.

Speaking of invigorate. It's annoying to watch people buff in towns, we should be able to turn that off too.

Emote usage as well. I should have to see anyone cheer or wave or any of that - too annoying, it can be spammed!

Normal game jumping is in the above categories, and if they're so annoying that you need a filter for ANY of them, I suggest you toggle the game off.

They should make jump/ledges work like GW2. If you jump is high enough to visually get over an object, you can do it. If there's a ledge, doesn't matter where it is you can fall off of it. If you survive just depends on how high it is

Played beta all day yesterday and have to say it was a blast ^^ I know the dev's are playing other mmo's in admission by Yoshi as part of making XIV so I hope they get some great aspects from all games out there.

[Elexia]

It was one of many reasons the game was unbearable.

No it wasn't. There's a lot of Korean MMOs and WoW/GW etc you can play if you feel Jump is the reason an MMO is good.
