I was wondering why Blizzard ruining things that were not needed any change also are so stubborn and delusional with their ideas?
I knew since dragon riding was announced, it will be disaster like everything else related to ruin player experience with flying.
Saw alpha dragon riding and my eyes rolled. I does not excite me at all.
Flying on it’s own was the best idea ever. You hit max level, you buy with gold flying, you enjoy content.
Why that person who is being stupid very ignorant can’t understand, that people want flying, not time gated , not dragon riding, not anything else but FLYING as it always was.
I know in fact that they won’t change dragon riding because how ignorant and stubborn they are, because for them " it’s greatest life changing idea ever".
BUT, if you really want half people enjoy this game in dragon flight make an OPTION so players can:
Hit max lvl, buy flying, enjoy content. No time gated crap, nothing.
Use dragon riding as an option for flying.
I wish i was in charge instead of Ion, so game would hit even 20 million active players.
Yeah thing is when you say “enyoj content” what you actualy mean is give me more rewards and faster. This is first time flying will finaly have gameplay element. There was nothing fun about old flying. It was just covinient feature what made finishing objectives and things faster.
This is already the textboox definition of a compromise though.
You whine for years that you want no timegated flying
They create a whole system to make fly an integral part of an expac, with new ways to experience it from the start of the expac
You say it looks dumb and ask for a compromise.
Well you don’t need to participate in it if you don’t like it.
You mean you can’t enjoy content without flying?
Maybe you’re playing the wrong game.
Personally, I like the process of unlocking Flying over a period of time. I like to play through the content first on a ground mount to get the full experience and once I have completed the content I can start flying to get from A to B much quicker.
Some people would like Flying to be incorporated into the game play and the challenge, and well Dragon Flying doesn’t that really well.
Now that’s a good compromise between those who want a good challenge to play through, and those who want flying straight away.
It sounds like you just want an easy ride, and I’ll just remind you here, that maybe WoW isn’t for you.
But I guess with Dragon Flying, you no longer need normal Flying.
I’m more interested in how Blizzard are going to implement my whole mount collection into this new feature.
Well from your suggestions, I probably wouldn’t be playing if you were in charge.
Flying is the biggest mistake Blizzard has ever made. It was cool, but also it immediately ruined the game. It’s like playing with godmode or noclip cheats in some games.
Dragonriding is something to hold you over until they inevitably unlock unlimited flying in 10.1.
It won’t be different from any other recent expansion.
My hope is to ideally have all flying mounts have their own unique gameplay and feel, and dragonriding is just a test before in 11.0 they remake flying completely.
As it is, flying right now is just point yourself in a direction, press num lock and afk. It’s boring. It’s incredibly dull.
Like, even when they were talking about adding it in TBC, they talked about their concerns being how fast the game can load assets, and that was the limiting factor to flight speed. No concerns over how it affects level design, world immersion, player interaction or anything like that.
They can never walk flying back. But at least they can make it… engaging. Not a glorified loading screen.
Well… it would be impossible to please ALL the people ALL the time. People’s opinions will differ.
Looking at all the forum posts this morning, I’d say the majority are really excited by it. I watched Tailiesins video on it yesterday and personally I think it’s awesome. It’s not just flying, it’s flying with style…
The thing is, if it were Bait, it would be aimed at driving the community apart. All it’s done is encourage a lot of replies saying how good Dragon Flying looks.
Dragonriding is fine, but I want to know about the countless (non dragon) mounts we’ve all farmed for years, and their place in DF. Even the pre-order comes with a non dragon mount!
Like you or anyone else has any say in what I play and how I play it.
Shoo.
Anyway kindly stick to the topic:
Dragonriding being a bad idea, badly implemented and badly designed.
It literally takes away most of the appeal/use of regular mounts. Which is the bread and butter of their store and their promotions. So… Bad call. Bad, bad call.
In other words, it’s time gated flying in other form, which does nothing but stop motivation to play game because you spend more time in travelling distances rather then playing actual content.
Worth mentioning that even base dragon riding is twice as fast as a regular flying mount… So you’ll be spending less time traveling than even if they allowed regular flying from the start.
Of course you’re not actually interested in this fact though because this is just another Moontear troll thread …
