Make a limit on Jump

Add platforming so jumping is actually useful.

I do like the jump quests in guild wars 2, those were fun~

With this attitude we should put a limit on anything anyone find annoying. Put a cooldown on shouts because it's annoying when people start shouting in Uldah. Put a coldown on the amount of steps you can take because it's annoying when people run in circles around me and put a cooldown on emotes.

I welcome this limitless feature with open arms.

There is a shout spam blocker you know.

And latency issues assure that you can never see anyone running around you correctly.

That would be awesome...except that Yoshi already said that 'this isn't an action game' and jumping is mostly cosmetic save for hoping over crates and fences.

Are there areas where you have to use chocobo’s jump to be able to reach?
Y: We don’t have any place set where you need to use jump to get up. This is not an action game so I don’t think it’s right to have people feel “I don’t want to do this anymore” for those not good at climbing steps. We have it where you can jump anywhere so even when traveling through the field so I think it’s enjoyable.

I see, so the jump action was added to enjoy the traveling.
Y: Yes that is correct.

Yippee.

Fun fun fun fun!!

It would be different if it had purpose other than HEY LOOK AT ME JUMP!

I'm sure hopping over small fences and ledges will have its use.

Imagine. And entire dungeon of fences and boxes.

I don't know if you took my post the wrong way, none of those things annoy me I was just saying that with the attitude that we should limit jump because someone finds it annoying then we can put limits on pretty much anything in the game because you will always find someone who finds something in the game annoying, like the examples I gave.

I understand, but we do have personal blockers that keep us from seeing spammed text or physics effects.
I don't really want to bring up the jump toggle issue again, but it's beginning to sound like a good idea for those who prefer not to see it.

That's the thing though, you block it on your screen, it doesn't limit the ones shouting, I'm all for stuff that would block things on your screen as long as it doesn't affect me. If they add a feature that you can turn on/off so you don't see when someone jumps then I'm all for that, it's nothing I would use but I understand that others would. Just don't limit my jumping if I want to jump or shout or whatever.

And I totally agree.
Rokien just has a habbit of making threads I don't completly disagree with, but that dosn't mean that I agree with the meathods he would use to ratify the issues we have.

Jump seemed useful to me in the videos.

As for a toggle:

A toggle to turn off other people jumping is stupid. What would ruin your immersion more: People jumping a lot, or people walking through rocks and fences when you can't actually do that? Jumping isn't something you can just turn off. Your character is moving in the game world. How can you hide that? It will look wrong no matter how you do it. You'll still know they're jumping- the character is moving up and down and left and right, the only way to hide jumping is to hide the fact that they're moving at all.
