Just to be clear, do you want flying in Argus?

[jaber2]

Just wanted to make sure

[Deleted]

Yes but it's deliberately designed to not be flying friendly

[McNeil]

Yes, its to much of a convenience now that they have done the terrain so terribly.

[MoanaLisa]

I don't care myself and so voted.

The area taken together is probably large enough to warrant a Pathfinder achievement for it but I have no idea if they built in the zone infrastructure required for flying or not.

You are right, I was deliberately designed to be unfriendly even to the dead

[Feali]

100% yes. It's so infuriating to navigate on the ground.

[Caerule]

Like @adam86shadow said.

Flying is amazing, and I love it, and it's one of the game's best features, in my opinion.

But Argus isn't made for it. The vast landscapes beyond the map's edge. Everything it was designed for. The illusion and immersiveness would fall apart if they would turn flying. It would have to turn from Argus, home of the Legion, to Argus, home of the invisible walls.

Besides, it's built in the spirit of the Timeless Isle. We're meant to have a challenge at it. A place with threats to keep us busy. Not a place to hover over while picking off rares and treasures.

Does it have its challenges and frustrations? Yes. It's a game. If you just want convenient rewards, campaign to Blizzard to have loot sent to you in your mailbox daily. Nothing is rewarding if there is no effort involved.

It's designed not to be walking friendly either.

Especially the dead. Die at Tar Spitter? Have fun running all the way around instead of spawning at the graveyard in the actual subzone Tar Spitter is in.

Well in like a month there's not going to be much reason to do the WQs there. At least not more than 1-2. So i guess if Blizz wanted a dead zone, they're gonna get it in a few weeks/couple of months.

Pretty much. Once I'm exalted, I'm not going there other than for emissaries. Once I have the last 4 legendaries on my main, I'm not even going to do that. My alts don't even have WQs unlocked(apart from the week1 ones on druid/shaman), because it's just too annoying to have to go through the quests over and over again(and then have them spawn as WQs the next day)

[Jimson]

Yes. Flying is great and it sucks when I'm grounded.

[Feali]

Saying Argus wasn't designed for flying is like saying Outland isn't designed for flying.

Who dies at Tar Spitter?

On topic, flying would be good, but enjoying it without

[Hey There Guys its Metro]

No need. Only problem is daze. Flying would ruin the whole concept and is probably impossible.

[Deleted]

They ve designed it so terrible. Flying just shows from above with a better view how terrible it actually is so they dont want us to fly above it...

[SL1200]

Blizzard's game design is done by vocal minority.

Just wanted to make sure

Just to be clear, yes.

[Wishblade]

Don't give a damn.

If we got flying: Neat.
If we continue the way it should be: Fair. :P

[Hey There Guys its Metro]

Saying Argus wasn't designed for flying is like saying Outland isn't designed for flying.

Except that you likely can not fly in Argus because of how the background and skybox work. You would destroy the whole concept of it, especially when you try to do what the massive ship we have does and go from zone to zone.
