Originally posted by Korusus But...but...if you remove jumping, then all my mindless monotous spamming of the spacebar will be for not! I've had a jumping addiction in every game I've played since Morrowind (where jumping around let you skill up). Now I jump everywhere I go in any game that has jumping. It's a curse really. Someone think of the children. Annoying!! One of my main reasons for leaving my first WOW guild the first 3months of WOW. This kid would jump around you on screen in everything we did, he just jumped jumped jumped and never stoped. After telling him to calm the F down he continued, it is really bad to jump in MMORPG's because it takes the immersion out and besides that you can clearly tell that the person on the other end is an idiot for annoying people and not respecting them when they say stop jumping.

I have no problem with bunny hopping and the likes when you do PVP. But taking the jump function away because some people feel immersion is destroyed by it is senseless.

Of all the things you could ask for betterment (word?) in an MMORPG; you ask for the removal of jumping and running in circles Seriously can you imagine WoW without jumping? What would you possibly do to pass time between BG queues? /jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump /jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump/jump

I really hope its not like WoW, the pvp system with the hopping really worsened the game for me.

Drains your stam like theres no tomar 2. dose not help 3. and it looks retarted. circleing your enemies dose help but needs to be done right no sprinting around them. a more slow combat ready movement. WOW messed things up BAD. and as far as the jumping to dodge attacks goes they could just add a Dodge dive skill with a recharge time so in certain times when dodgeing is needed u can.

PVP games that use jumping in a negative way really piss me off. Take half life for example, what the heck is going on there? Everyone is all hopping around like mad. Could anyone just stop that and actually hide behind corners and stuff like you clearly should? WoW had idiot rouges spinning around you hopping swinging their stupid daggers. Doesn't anyone see how completely retarded this is? I can only hope that AoC does away with that. The most realistic way that I could imagine would solve this is to cause delays when jumping and using abilities. As people have mentioned, jumping around hitting attack buttons wouldn't allow you to actually do anything offensive, which I suppose would be the only real purpose of jumping in combat, a defensive action (depends on what you're doing). From the videos it SEEMS like it'll work in a different way, jumping doesn't seem so insanely 'hop hop lively' as other games. Let's see how it works out. I'd prefer real epic battles such as the one they show in one video where people are not hopping around. No need for all that.

If you was fighting say with swords against someone in real life, it would be more realistic to sidestep then jump up though as a dodge manouever =) I think they put the "double tap a key" in for side steping, but your right, we are just going to have to be patient and find out Conan Vids Corsair 800d Case/i7 930 @ 4.4ghz/EVGA x58 760 Classified/Corsair Dominator 12GB 1600/Corsair HX1000 PSU/GTX 580x2/Intel X25-M SSD/2x WD 1TB Blacks/Corsair H90 cooler / 1x 28" 1900x1200 monitor/ G-19 Keyboard/ G500 mouse

Pure speculation.
