    The only reason I ever wanted flying was those areas you could see but couldn't reach on foot in vanilla other than hacking or blink type glitches. No reason to "need to fly" these drama queens are just being drama queens over it. Your sub money doesn't mean the world to them so stop with your false threats because we know you're going to buy it one way or another.

    Hopefully we've seen the last of flying mounts (in the new zones), I can't think of anything more disruptive to the MMO. Let'
    s make this an MMO again, and not some silly AFK-craft it has been since WOTLK.

    Having to use flying paths to get everywhere (or ground mounts) will surely be so encouraging to explore and go away from big cities. It's not like flying mounts gave you a feeling of unbound travel everywhere you want, so you didn't feel restrained.

    This is what I been saying all along , devs listen to to many idiots and R tards and give in to them instead of looking at what affect it has on those of us that enjoy flying. Why spend money and buy flying mounts from blizzard if you aren't gonna be able to use them?

    Bleh. No flying until 6.1 was really stretching it, none at all is troublesome news. I'll do a first playthrough but then I'll just have to see. Combined with their efforts to force people to go out into the world I'm genuinely worried. I fear this change will make WoW too obnoxious for me, even if I'm very excited for Draenor. Damn shame.

    I highly doubt this will ever happen. Look at the moaning, groaning and loud bitching people did when it was said we couldn't fly in Pandaria until lvl90. Most players can't stand flight paths for many reasons, mine is because some of the paths go around the place you need before taking you there. Some people can also fly faster than the flightmaster, so less time getting around. If flying is going to be restricted in anyway in WoD, they should do the same thing as Pandaria or hold flying until the patch after launch. My thoughts anyway.

    No personal offense, but this attitude is what is worrying about this game.

    Fascinating that the game has apparently been ruined for seven years.

    Hopefully those who enjoy using flying mounts can vote with their wallets and force Blizzard to reconsider their decision. Sure, there won't be a majority drop in subs, but the number would be significant enough to warrant reconsideration.

    It's worrying because the more they try to force players out into the world, the more they seem to punish the players who already do go out into the world.

    Yeah having awesome flying mounts and not able to fly them would suck. Ashes, several Protodrakes, Bone dragons... you name it. All useless? No, they will bring back flying with the first patch.

    If they want to lose subs due to so stupid reasons - then it's their choice. For me no flying = no sub. As simple as that.

    "Forcing" people to do things like waste their time fighting everywhere isn't healthy about the game either.

    People should be able to play the way they want, not the way other people feel they need to play.

    I want to do things on my own time and not waste time with trivial mobs. They don't force character interaction. They don't make the game more immersive. They waste time, plain and simple. Just like those charging bastards on timeless isle. I don't run by those guys and think "Oh boy I get to do battle with a brutal yaungol!" I think "Jeesum crow, THESE fuckers again..." They aren't dangerous. If I dismount and face them, there's no real way in which they'll kill me. It's just wasted time when I could be doing something I WANT to do.

    They'd look just as "pretty" and "unobtrusively immersive" as they would if I were skating by them in the air.

    Have some pretty sweet flying mounts. But its just epeen and nothing to care about. If we would get immersion and wpvp back i would gladly give up them all. PVE players belong on PVE servers if they cant handle being ganked.

    And this is from a person who does very little pvp in general.

    Another option would be to have 5 sec cast on mount / dismount flying. People wont be able to just mount and fly away.

    Why is flying mounts so important? Feels like 75% of the time spent on the back of a flying mount is being afk so you don't get killed. What so fun and important about that? Use flight paths if you wanna go to some place, easy peasy.

    Hopefully they will. And they'll never try such a thing again.

    Perhaps they'll actually deal with the problems instead of attempting to glaze over them by removing a pivotal game element not actually responsible for all the tangential and immaterial "issues" people bitch about.

    ... you think people are going to AFK LESS after travelling becomes more cumbersome?
