People will quit if mounts aren't added

I mean I don’t think they should just carelessly throw mounts in. Obviously things have to be balanced in PvP, whether its things like being in a certain radius of another PvP flagged player disables your mount or any other idea that could be better.

But I think something has to be done. The default movement speed is just too slow. I look at other MMOs with smaller maps, MULTIPLE fast travel points available with much less costs, MOUNTS AVAILABLE and wonder how much thought went into this game.
the BL glitch was amazing and made me realize just how slow we actually move. Meaningless inconvenience adds absolutely nothing to my gameplay experience and I will always stand by this.

Hah, thank you! :smiley:

So for anyone who is interested, here are the results. The statement “Mounts should be added asap” was given and players were asked to agree or disagree on a scale of 1-5 where 5 is strongly agree and 1 is strongly disagree. 446 players responded.

The results:

Strongly agree 22%
Agree 5%
Neither 18%
Disagree 13%
Strongly disagree 43%

The average rating was 2.49 (disagree).

Just don’t allow Mounts to be used in PvP… not that difficult.

Holy crap. You couldn’t handle travel speeds even to level 10? You were already using fast travel by then? Wow. It takes like an hour to get that far.

This game is clearly not for you, and so it shouldn’t be changed for you. If you get fed up this easily, then AGS would be forever trying to find ways to please you, and in the process the game will be ruined for people who actually like what it’s offering now.

Between all the bugs and actual bad design (like attribute points all get dumped in a single stat, PvP being a Zerg fest, no diminishing returns on cc, poor economy design) mounts is super low tier on list of things to care about and this game doesn’t need them. They should consider doubling azoth cap, lowering teleport costs around 30-50%, and maybe adding a speed buff of 10-20% while on a main road that disappears when you enter combat.

Good God, this is just one upping the OP. Auto-pathing? That’s about the most anti-MMO thing I’ve ever seen. I swear, modern “MMO” players truly hate MMOs. They look at traveling as a chore instead of a foundational mechanic that creates the feeling of immersion in a living world.

Mmos are the only genre that uses auto pathing. It’s literally the type of game the mechanic is for.

That’s exactly what it is. There’s no immersion gained from having to travel, it’s just a chore you have to trudge through to get to the parts of the game that actually are immersive and entertaining.

Please use the template at the following thread to announce your farewell. Let us know how WoW is doing from time to time! Farewell.

When you finally could make your dream living as adventurer true but its turned out not so good. XD

Konosuba is such a realistic anime. ^^

Well probaly every person loving RPG’s watched on their life LOTR, i suppose 99% of them love IT as i do. Guess what, most of the time in the movie they were traveling!

Talking along the way, beign vulnerable.

Lots ppl refuse to interact with others in na MMO, crazy right?

Most ppl refuse to turn on pvp wich makes leaving town so much more exiciting knowing now you are vulnerable wich is oposite of boring. You wanna mounts? To skip even more adventure that you see as a chore?

Im glad there are no mounts. It will make the world feel even smaller.

the only type of “mount” i’d like to see added is carriages from town to town that you can pay to “slow boat” it instead of fast traveling, much like the flightpaths in wow. That way i can pay for my trip from First light to Shattered mount and go get something to eat and come back 5-10 mins later and be dropped off in the fort. It doesn’t take long to run from one side of the map to the other, but for sheer conveince sake i wouldn’t mind the carriage system. That and maybe a pack mule that can die if it gets attacked.

I 2nd this idea… kinda like Skyrim.

Why? So you can run away from everything? We already have teleportation, and free azoth in outpost rush.

Before rejecting even the idea of mounts, I would wait until we hear from AGS what they have planned with the mount system.

  • Maybe they get implemented when the world is bigger?

  • Who said they won’t add a daze system or something similar?

Maybe they have a really cool and thought out system for mounts up their sleeves.

And don’t fool yourself, we already mined hints for mounts in the data. That doesn’t confirm mounts, but they atleast thought about them.

Well, they did make an official statement awhile back stating that they have no plans to add mounts to the game. While that doesnt mean they wont in the future, they wont any time soon.

I m fine with mounts if the world gets larger, but at the moment not having them is completely fine.

People will quite if mounts are not added?
No we aren’t.

Where is this statement? The interview with ser medieval and datamined information tell a different story.

Reject the idea, like Amazon already stated.

Whaaaaaaaaat! First EQ reference I’ve seen.
