Scaling mounts are NOT some magical thing that, just cuz "WoW did it" it suddenly needs to be in every game!

But why not? It seems your only basis is "cause WoW did it". Conceivably, one could upgrade the vehicles to go faster, so there's that.

Folks should have as many options as they wish, since ultimately it's just a cosmetic thing. If people want to stick with the old clunker they started off with, let them. If they want to be more "leet" and fly around on the more prestigous mounts, then let them. But variety is awesome, and it cannot be denied that WoW added a mess of variety when they made mounts to scale to the player. Course, they also added too much variety when they made it ridiculously easy for anyone to get cross-racial mounts. I worked my arse off so my Troll can ride a wolf... and now not a single damn person typically rides their race's typical mount.

my first car was a ford minivan.(ya im a father so what it sucked i know) no matter how much work i put into it it was a piece of crap.. its a ford minivan what do you expect..it will never run as well as many other decent cars... same thing can be said about those speeders really. no matter how much work you put into it it might still suck


its all how you look at it i guess. shrug

i find mounts are just money sinks in most games anyway since running isnt that slow and there is the quick travel options. so likely not advancing a mount is just a way to keep currencys low in game. shrug. every game has a money sink.. maybe this is one for this game.

Why are all the trolls here trying to make it sound like people are wanting mechanical advantages? Is it to much to ask for the droid to circle me until I desummon it instead of circle a target for a few moments? Or say have the holodancer last 30 seconds more? How are any of those things abusing or giving an unfair advantage? I want to have fun with my fluff items not have like 15 seconds of almost fun as something fades seconds after I pull it out.

That last sentence should really be changed/reworded because that made me spit my coffee all over my screen reading it

This isn't even about wow, i bet you were just getting so aroused at the prospect of being able to get that in there.

It's about usefulness, it's about not having the "Crap" redundant mid level, it's so easy to call out something when it doesn't effect you.

the changes they made from advertisement can be classed as devaluing there product.
