the current system is fine !
the current system is fine !
u want them to work on more content like how they used to instead of slack their ass and force u on the far slower route to do less in more time ? blasphemy

that was against the normal mount, not epic one, even during TBC epic was 280%, with gladiator one were 310 (not sure of some epic pve ones were also 310 or not like phoenix)
but i do agree i liked that system, but it won't make sense now since getting normal flying is very cheap

Just like raids and dungeons giving better rewards to reflect the higher the difficulty levels, using ground mounts should be more rewarding than using flying mounts. After all the more effort that you put into the game, the greater the rewards should be.
Flying mounts are essentially the LFR level method of transportation in Azeroth, literally allowing the player to skip past content.
So rather than limit flying in any way, Blizzard should encourage the use of ground mounts with time limited buffs, that could differ by zone.
For example riding your ground mount for one minute could give one of the following random buffs, which would be cancelled on death or the moment you use a flying mount:
You gain 20% increased run speed for 3 minutes.
You gain 5% increased XP gain for 30 minutes.
All damage taken is reduced by 25% whilst in this zone.
All damage done is increased by 25% whilst in this zone.
Resource (ore, herbs, skinning, fishing) gathering speed is increased by 50%.
Chance to obtain loot from zone mobs is increased for 10 minutes.
Player health and mana regeneration increased by 20%.
These are just simple buffs that reward players for not taking the easy path of flying mounts, without taking anything away from flying itself.

didn't you just tell me that I wasn't interested in a game in a first place? or something? it was that point that made the game different from other games and got me interested enough to buy it. it is not a nonsensical reason to me. there are plenty of other games out there that give me same things as WoW does and more. except for flight. flight was that point that sold me. i can get similar gameplay elsewhere, and without subscribing mind you. as well as similar setting.
and I repeat. nonsensical is just like YOUR opinion man. it was a selling point for me, and whenever developers decide to take it away, I stop subscribing.
now... flying alone is not enough to keep me interested, but it IS a major part of it.
Of course they felt like that, even back then they already realized that this is an mmo, where you need to chain people to a subscription for months/years ideally, but there is no way you can supply them with quality content for the whole time. This was always the case, the effort required to create content is orders of magnitude higher than the entertainment that can be derived from it Both of these are diametrically opposed, so even back then they were scrambling for ways to elongate content without making the grind too obvious. The truth is flying in wow is a canon thing and every other NPC does it casually without restriction. We are just restricted for business reasons and in the case of BFA, even that was not enough and they pretty much doubled the time requirements of WQs and farming compared to most legion quests/recipes.
They could pretty easily get more complex than that. But to be perfectly honest, that's a GOOD place to start as long as it comes with flying at level cap, or at least Pathfinder part 1 without the stupid rep grinds. It would have to only be a first step, with later steps adding more options for both ground AND flying mounts with pathfinder part 2 or 3.
Sure, if you mean it in the sense of this comic:

Oh, you mean like how we sink all that time and effort into finishing pathfinder, only to have it be virtually worthless once it's done? Maybe you ought to think about your statement more carefully.
Yes! Absolutely! Ground mounts need to have something to not only bring them closer to parity with flying mounts, but also encourage their use!
Once of the biggest argument the ground-pounders have is that Flying is literally, objectively better. This must be addressed before the situation can improve in any meaningful way. And exploiting players who want to fly with Pathfinder is not an improvement. It's simply a giant middle finger to people who want flying.

And which point was that? Seems to me that all you did was make a bunch of inaccurate statements.

How about:
"I like this game MORE when I can fly."
If you are trying to prove that my opinion is mistaken, you are doing a pretty poor job.
You can't really have "a" major part ... it would be the major part as major part is "most of something" ... so major part of why you are interested is flying. Perhaps you meant a "large" part. Even so, doesn't make it any less nonsensical.
And yes, I still feel confident (even more so now with your explanation) that you don't really like the game.

Still nonsense. The game is the game, flight is a minor part. If it makes or breaks the game for you, you don't really like the game in my view.

jesus fuck, accept that your opinion is YOUR opinion. and it does NOT match mine. 50% is a major part. that's math for you. anyways, whatever dude, you don't like flying, i get it. I do. for me it enhances the game enough to play it when I could be playing something else. you don't have to share this preference. you don't even have to accept it. doesn't change the fact that its my preference. one. single. bit. and STOP telling me what I like or don't like.
bye bye now
50% isn't most of something though ... it's 50% of something, half. It has to be greater than 50%, that's math for you. If no part is greater than 50%, the word used is "large" or "largest."
Yes, it is my opinion. My first post literally says "I would say ..." I never denied it was an opinion. It isn't my fault you got upset over it. My second point is telling you it is literally okay to like something for a nonsensical reasons. It seems like you are telling me, I can't have an opinion on yours.

Did you forget we are talking about a video game? The reasons I like the game are no more or less nonsensical for the most part. I like the Horde over the Alliance because I can play a Noble race surrounded by Savages ... that isn't a reason that will make sense to other people and I accept there isn't anything beyond "I like it" as the reason.
What I find funny is that people whining about flying are basically doing exactly what you are doing to me. The opinion of those who hate flying and those of the developers mean exactly what to you? Pretty much nothing, because you want flying.

so instead lets just handicap everyone ???
if you see not flying as some kind of handicap, then you shouldnt be against it, if not then by all means, go ahead and dont use it.
for example, I like the new boat system in kul tiras, some times I even change my way and sometimes make it longer so I can use the boats in kultiras. however I dont think they are that popular and useful considering the range and speed of flightmasters.
so if I like that, I use it, if you dont like that, dont. as fucking simple as it can come.
