There was no flying in vanilla WoW so…they should be no flying in classic.

I really wish blizzard would release a blue post stating that there will be no game changes from other expansions in classic… would put an end to all of this nonsense…

Another useless topic

I do think it’s possible to have balanced flight in a game (ie WC3), but that’s not what flight in WoW has been. The time it takes to travel is what makes the world feel big; flight can’t be allowed to take that away.

Unfortunately I doubt it would!

Remember TBC with 60% flying mounts ^^ ?

When flying mounts were added in TBC they were difficult to obtain because of the cost BUT they were required for a lot of the content - the game was designed around them in many respects- and a player didn’t gain a great advantage by having one

So I can’t see Blizz even being in a position to add flight to Classic

If they do ultimately open TBC the flight will be there

Flying isn’t needed at all you can get FP’s to every hub thats close to wherever your going so stop being lazy if your that tired of how slow your riding then get epic riding and get the faster mount.

Or murloc demon hunter.

get epic mount

Yeah, I think that worked a lot better. Tho the reason they were buffed might be the other major flaw - removing danger. When you can toggle autorun and fly to your destination without risk, speed feels much more of a pointless limit than when you’re on the ground, dodging mobs & traversing terrain. There’s a lot of gameplay to land travel, which flight would need to replace to work well.

Well that was the original tbc spirit, they did acknowledge 60% was slower than then epic ground mount, but because you could avoid mobs and obstacles they thought it was fair.

The thing is kinda pointless classic world was never made for flying mounts, it’s full of bugs, holes and open roofs. They had to rework the entire game during cataclysm to make it flight proof. So basically that’d would be asking for an entire new expansion if they’re going to do that with the classic world in mind.
