Slow down flying mounts to +60% speed

This controversy simply won’t go away and it’s obvious that flying cheapens the game by letting players skip over everything, and it especially destroys warmode because everyone is essentially in invincible bubble mode high in the air. What makes world pvp so exciting is the concept of vulnerability and discovery at anytime. Flying takes that away.

The problem is that flying is simply too OP. It’s basically a teleport to any location on the map. There needs to be a trade-off. It’s absolutely ridiculous that flying should give all the convenience of skipping everything in the world below while also move twice the speed of ground mounts. I say slow flying mounts down to +60% so there’s an actual incentive to travel on the ground as the game was designed, and this way flyers can still enjoy that beautiful scenery in the air which is all they claim to care about. Also give the net-o-matic unlimited range with no cast time, and perhaps some sort of tracker that lets you see enemy flyers on your minimap, because right now they’re too hard to spot unless you’re looking up all the time.

Sure, for PvP, do what ever the heck you want with flying then. But for PvE leave flying as it is and rather improve on it. Take example in Wrath and design zones around having flying.

While this topic has come up before by many players, this topic is unique because it proposes a unique solution. That makes it far less spammy than your worthless post.

I can also skip content by using FPs, slow those down too?

I don’t care about how fast a flying mount is.

But I’d rather if Blizzard does not introduce PvP achievements for areas they plan to allow flying in.

Don’t give him a bone that he can chew on

just imagine that someone asks why u pay a wow sub:
99,9% of players -to play
vinzora -to whine on forum

Um yes, if they put one thousand flight paths per zone it would be the same problem. You really can’t see the difference? Wow…

Actually flight paths don’t let you dive gank non-flyers so no, it wouldn’t be as bad.

Nah you’re alright mate.
Ruin your own fun. Not mine.

Time to grab some popcorn

If your “fun” is determined by flight speed then why not increase it to 500%, more fun right? How about instant teleportation to any location on map you click, according to your logic that’s the most fun imaginable.

I don’t think 500% would be right.
Would look weird.
But I would love a speed upgrade.
