[dev1008] About Jumping

[Dromox]

Hahaha! Well here's what I would mean as far as examples I could list.

As you know there are filters for letting me filter out all the junk I don't want to see in my chat board. Such as /emote. There will be no filter for when I see a guy/girl just jumping for no reason while waiting for Behest, Mission, Quest, Linkshell event, etc.

Secondly what I think would be a reason is that the Development Team has come around saying that they would later on down the road implement back into FFXIV PvP....Now if you've played Halo........You know for darn sure they're going to be hopping around like jack rabbits just to piss you off.

Mostly all in all I wouldn't have a problem with this being an annoyance, except for that PvP example. However I can see others having a problem with this as I tend to see a lot of people with impatience as they play this game. For example I was playing Behest and people wouldn't stop fighting so we could invite the last guy, so he got pissed and slapped on his 50 THM and decimated the rest of the Behest mobs....Then they were annoyed over him because they couldn't wait 3 seconds to invite him in the first place!.........

See what I mean? lol This list I'm sure could add a couple more reasons to why people wouldn't want it. I'm just listing those I know. Wouldn't you agree that it's slightly annoying?

I don't really follow, but by your example with the behest, honestly if you are going to throw a tantrum over something as simple as that you should really reevaluate so of your life choices and probably seek help. PvP really isn't the place to be jumping anyways, FFXIV isn't a FPS, FFXIV however is a fantasy MMO, and being fantasy should allow its players some freedoms! FFXIV: Fun, Freedom, XIV!!!

I guess in a way you're right. To hell with it. Add the damn feature. However if I see twenty people jumping, I will kick your ***, Dromax. Hahaha!

I still wouldn't mind adding more features like this to add more sense of exploration though. Climbing mountains, swimming in the sea, and hell maybe even flying.

Edit: And even though jumping isn't the place when in PvP. I guarantee you people will jump around you while you're fighting. Oh well though....Never cared for PvP anyway!

I think jumping would be really cool. I agree with Rowyne on post #118 and have complete confidence that the ffxiv team would make it enjoyable for everyone.
