No Flying on the Siren Isle in Patch 11.0.7 - Wowhead News
I swear they do it out of spite now, Ion’s way of making us suffer still over WoD.

Stop crying. Flying hurts the game as a MMO genre, not even only WoW, and don’t even get me started. Any MMO shouldn’t have flying, but the zones and whole gameplay should be designed that way.

As they said in the video, smaller zone with more condensed content.
In reality the only thing which will be more condensed is the lag.

Because you guys are complaining without any reasonable arguments, and Blizzard is listening to you because they want to please everyone, and retail looks how it looks now. “Ohh this is bad, and this is bad”, “How they could do this to us” etc.
At least whem I’m complaining I always try to give many arguments why something sucks, and even maybe how to change it for better.
Flying is destroying the connection to the world, and interaction between players. Remember Khortia or Timeless Isle? You have seen A LOT of players running around, but on this whole expansion I feel like I’m playing singleplayer rpg with multiplayer aspect. Like 80% of those people are gone, and I play on high pop realm.
Work of art team goes to waste, because you don’t see those great details they put in the world.
As I said you don’t make the connection to the world. You don’t feel the danger like it was in classic just running around. You won’t even remember the zones and pathing in like 3 years.
I could give you way more arguments why in my opinion flying is complete unnecessary for MMO, and I have played a lot of MMO games. Yes, it is nice to jump on a flying mount, and get quickly to the second place, and that’s why zones, and whole gameplay should be designed differently.
Edit. Maybe I reacted too negativly, my bad. But I’m tired of seeing complains in this community not explaining why is that.

I’m fine with that for new content initially. Let there be a meta achievement to fly in later on.

That’s what i’m hoping for. To have old pathfinder. For some time you are playing without flying, and later in a X.1 or X.2 patch you can fly. Everyone would be happy.

I wouldn’t be.
Having to use dragonriding instead of normal flying is already annoying enough, no way do i want to go back to the idiotic OG pathfinder system

Flying should 100% exist from the get-go in every new content.
However, willingly staying on the ground should in absolutely every case without a single exception be orders of magniture more efficient in every aspect of the game: power progress, collections, farming, etc.
And none of those spoke to each other. You are mistaken in your belief that flying is the problem here. Times have changed, a lot of people simply dont even want that social aspect anymore.
Nothing wrong with admitting that instead of trying to arbitrarily blame in game systems.
On topic: I’ll just wait with playing that content until we can fly, simple as that. Unless they show us that this is not going to be a tedious, trash filled island full of mountains and other annoying stuff to get around.
And the way they will try to correct the views of people like me(and with me many others) will be making that new ring so ridiculously powerful that any selfrespecting player HAS to have it to compete.

Good decision.

I can get the part about devs wanting us to first experience a zone from the ground until we reach some milestone.
But I think that permanent no-flight like in the timeless isle is just mean and is more focused on extending the daily/weekly chores
This. I actually didn’t expect them to unlock flying so quick early in the expansion tbh.
They can always get creative and come up with an interesting questline that is about overcoming what is preventing flight
Given the other datamined spell effects in that post about flying, I’d imagine this may be related to those storms they mentioned, so these effects are liked tied to those events and not permanent. Lets just see how it plays out.

WoW has flying and ground mounts. I think it is a good thing to have a zone where only ground mounts are allowed.
