Would You Buy A Flying Mount If They Were To Come To ESO

WuTang

No

Wouldn't even want it to be added.

newtinmpls

No

I would buy a flying pet. Especially one with a 'perch on shoulder' option

Exactly. It'd be super lore-unfriendly (yes, there have been and will be flying conveyances, but none that would make sense as a mount), and the existing zones clearly aren't designed with flying in mind.

Well now, that's another story... Just think of all the jokes that could be made about whether that parrot on your shoulder is dead, or just pining for the fjords...

granty2008cyb16_ESO

Yes

for all the people saying no i would give you 20 minuets after seeing the first flying mount before you went and bought one yourself. :-)

Victus

No

No. Thanks.

Mashille

No

Would breakk ALL immersion, allow you to get outside the map. Would be [snip] stupid in PVP, Would allow you to skip most of the greatly crafted game world. Would make you overlook small details that make the game great. Would be absolutely STUPID. (I don't mean to come across mean or rude but that's just how it is.)

lecarcajou_ESO

Yes

All sides point to yes! Ok, I know it's an indulgence, and possibly idiotic. But I just like to fly, man.

Gidorick

No

The community has spoken it seems.

JTorus

No

I can see it now, a whole new reason to hate cliff racers all over again.

granty2008cyb16_ESO

Yes

the community spoke on eso staying a subscription game but hey look we can now play for free.

if there is cash to be made there they will put flying mounts.

SRIBES

Yes

If it were a cliff racer, yes. If not gtfo

technohic

Yes

No but seriously. If they were added, I would use one. If the question was if they should or shouldn't add them, my answer might be different but going on the basis of the question at hand; I'm not going to sit on the ground while everyone else is flying around.

redspecter23

No

This game isn't designed to handle flying mounts. It's about as logical as adding a levitation spell. It would be by definition exploitable and broken or it would hover 1 foot off the ground and be no more useful than a regular horse.

Heromofo

No

I love flying mounts especially in wow

Buut

Flying mounts will break the lore even futher for this era

This would require alot of work to the point where they could spend an entire year like wow pretty much did but on a bigger scale as they slowly had it in.

More content for a year or flying mounts mmmm?

This would destroy Cyrodil unless it was rebuilt

Wyietsayon

No

Not actual flying. Something that flew along the ground, sure. But with aerial controls, going up and down, nah. Why? Because the game wasn't designed to be played that way. Cliffs are designed to block passage, you can't stand on roofs, mobs are supposed to be able to knock you off your mount, etc. And I don't want invisible walls everywhere.

Aett_Thorn

No

this would pretty much break PvP. You wouldn't need to siege anymore. You would just hop on your flying mount, land on castle roof, and take the pins without ever letting the owning faction know that it was under assault.

idk

No

It would be pointless as it would follow the same paths as the current mounts. It would take exceptional programming to make it work otherwise and id rather that time spent on dlc.

Heromofo

No

1. Alot of us would not stand for this
2. The required work for this is huge i dont think you get adding new levels on top of each other.
3. It would require alot of time and money that means we could see another massive content drought
4. Alot of resources and money for little to give back
5. It would break all sides of the lore people like my self couldn't stand for it
6. Cyrodil would have to be rebuilt for pvp from the ground up

Look i can go on and on and im not saying i hate flying mounts because i love them and had so many in wow.
But i cannot see them apart of eso ever lol.

Slurg

Yes

The question was not whether there should be flying mounts in ESO; the question was would you buy one if ESO had them.

If flying mounts existed in ESO, of course I would buy one. I would be at a steep disadvantage if I did not.

No

AngryNord

No

No, i would immediately cancel my subscription and uninstall ESO

Minnesinger

Yes

I would buy but I must say the chances of having one is small. I actually hope they don´t bring anything like that into the game. The flying horses/ unicorns/ pigs don´t fit in the lore of TES. Talking about this levitation skill would be awesome addition. No to flying animals except dragons. I will keep the door open for dragons. The dragons are cool

Knight150

Yes

Hell yes, don't understand the no's at all

no thanks...I recall when flying mounts were brought to Azeroth....its was so cool at first and then the world got too small.

Imagine Cyrodil lag with flying mounts...ppl just falling from the sky DEAD

joking....but all seriousness, it isn't something that I'd like to see unless a big DLC patch added dragons to kill and sometime later dragon mounts made sense.

Aaah alot of us are worried about the lore eso bends it abit already we dont want it going further.
But its ok in eso live they pretty much said it wont happen so we are lucky.
Im fighting for player housing and guild halls over things like this.

Anlaemar

If they added this, I would probably give in to buying it because "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em." However I, and I hope the community would as well, fight tooth and nail so this wouldn't happen.

I think the larger concern is that content can easily be skipped over, thus making the world feel much smaller. Completely counterproductive to what has been in development for years.
