The Mount Poll

The tree will be a ground mount, serpents are flying mounts, also aggressive much?

Ground vs Flying was not even related to the conversation.
And aggressive? How is that aggressive? LOL
I am telling them I like bigger mounts they’re stating as fact that I am incorrect (on an opinion). How else would you expect me to respond other than a ridiculous question?

I’m just wondering how many honor points the person will get for designing the winning mount.

I don’t think they would make important decissions based on player voting.

Although I wouldn’t mind a house poll.

Give us houses already!

The mounts might be added in the long run as shop or profession ones though. Again this is the point in voting for something. And there will always be people dissapointed even when blizz adds things without a poll. People have different taste but that doesn’t mean we will suddenly get flashy pink gear ingame.

Tbh final fantasy has these contestd where players design armour sets and others can vote on what they like best and those get implemented. That would be quite nice imo.

again, thats not the point.

the point is as long as there are more choices than 2 there will be a higher dissatisfaction amongst the player base.

e.g. if a gets 40% of the votes and b and c get 30% then that doesnt mean that a is what the majority wants.

actually, i wished we had more flashy and quirky transmog/stuff, yet people tend to choose cool/lore stuff rather than the odd one out. so what now? kind of proving my point.

all im saying is that those polls are rather useless imo. yeah it gives the player the illusion that blizzard cares and some might get what they want but the rest will be dissatisfied.

its just a mount/cosmetic so i dont care since its free and i wont complain about free stuff but i think the overall intention is rather, well, pointless.

I think it’s nice to have more than 2 choices because it gives a glimpse of what we could be getting in the future and what kind of ideas they have. Most polls have multiple options really.

They could easily implement the book as an inscription mount as we don’t have those. Maybe the nerubian as an alchemy experiment…the worm for tailoring as it has to do with silk? Just thinking here :stuck_out_tongue:

:woman_facepalming: i guess im done, you re not even trying to address what was said.

Completely agree. I like having the sense that my opinion matters and voting on things but polls statistically make the overall majority unhappy even though a majority voted for a particular thing.

Sadly, I think this will be very likely. I am not looking forward to dozens of forum threads being started to complain about the winning mount being poorly scaled to the environment.

The fact its a massive ground mount is why am so anti Ancient… People wont use massive ground mounts… And you see this in current WoW…

I think a Ancient is cool and think its the best pick of them all, but because i know its just another big mount in my collection i will never use because its so clumsy i am against it winning…

Even the winners will end up as losers.

Tbh, just because you won’t use the mount doesn’t mean others won’t. I’ve got two closer friends in the game and we all voted for the Ancient.

Stop telling other people what they’re supposed to like. You’re just being ridiculous.

Statiscily speaking it wont be used… you say you will but everyone that voted for it will end up on a cat or a direwolf… The only big ground mounts used are the ones that also offer utility…

I can not change that fact.

You could certainly stop trying to predict the future. Because “future” and “fact” are two different things, you see.

Why are people so hard headed… People can see it RIGHT NOW big mounts are not used unless they offer utility like the Transmog mount… You gonna ride it for a day get stuck everywhere and need to dismount your self so often u end up switching…

Feel free to tell me i am wrong after the mount has been out for more then a week but i am certain enough to say you wont because you cant.

Good thing the open world in WoW is pretty open then.

Frankly, it’s not even your business if people are going to be using it or not.

I’m certainly gonna make sure to use my lovely Ancient mount a lot (granted it will win) and then send you all the pictures. :wink:

Man some people really cant separate emotions from reality…

Simple 2 weeks after its release you wont see the mount being used because they are annoying to use.

No need for a debate as time would either prove me or you wrong.
I am just saying my top pick would also be ancient but i do not vote for it because i know me and majority of playerbase want it but wont use it…

It will be great for RPers, so much is true.

Stop calling people dumb because they have a different opinion to you.
Most people seem to want the Ancient. Live with it, you’re not going to be forced to use it.
