Some people expect flying mounts as part of that progression (especially if they just come from WoW). It may be unrealistic, but equally it is understandable. Anarchy Online. Notum Wars expansion in 2002 introduced flying vehicles. So from as far back as a decade ago there was a game with flying mounts. It's not just "a WoW thing".

Ya ... the Twitter speed generation kinda gets lost when confronted with volume that lacks skip-throughs. Why enjoy a book when Cliff's Notes can be read overnight? Or its movie adaptation can be watched in 2 hours? It's not just the gaming industry either. Pretty much every form of entertainment that can't be completed during a lunch break is suffering. Many can't stay chilled & focused long enough to enjoy the ride - they just wants the spoils now so they can queue for the next one.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?

Nobody else will care. Nope, it's not that simple. Open world PvP would be still dead, regardless if I use it or not. Sure, there is not much open world PvP at the moment anyway, but it would be even less then.

Just because you can jump and climb does not diffinitively support flight. You make an assumtion and then accuse people of trolling. One could say the same about unsupported statements regarding the Hero Engines capabilites. Again, with no supporting evidence we don't know. Right now the only z-axis "flight" movement supported by the Hero Engine seems to be for use in "taxi" style movement. Hero Engine supports it for designers (see wiki http://hewiki.heroengine.com/wiki/Fly_Mode), so it is reasonable to assume that it should work for playing either by default, or with some tweaks to the engine (which is already tweaked very much) Quote: Originally Posted by Graydon To all the players worried over flying travel mode, Its all very really absolutely amazingly incredibly simple: Don't like flying mounts don't use flying mounts. Nobody else will care. We are not concerned about the mounts, we are simply stating that their inclusion would mean the need to probably redo much of the existing locations to be fully compatible (so no building lacking some outside wall because that area is unaccessible by normal means, etc).

Thanks for the link. The assumtion concerning whether it should work or not would be based on if this feature was part of the engine that BW used. It has been stated that BW used a pre-release Hero Engine that is not as robust as the current Hero Engine.
