Mounts
Hyper Cutter
I'd like to see more "mounts" along the lines of Junundu or Siege Devourers, ie the replace your skillbar kinds. Especially the devourers, since you can zone with those...
MisterB
If I had to choose between map travel and mounts, I'd take map travel every time. Unless the "mounts" were mechanical in nature and Giant Robots in form with Laser Cannons, Grenade Launchers, Machineguns, Laser Swords, and Rocket Boosters, of course. Oh, wait, wrong game. No mounts in GW, please.

No need for mounts imo... I hope they still keep in some sort of form of instant travel in GW2

If they bring mounts in, I'd like them to feel "right". I used to love charging around on a Twon-Ha in Outcast, but I don't get a sense of anything much when I saddle up on (in) a Wurm or Devourer. Infact "saddled" is probably the word to describe the experience.

Mounts would just end up being a new minipets, that'd be as stupid as it is now. Batman has batmobile, maybe Anet should put that in as well.
bel unbreakable
been wondering about that if gw2 is going to be a persitant world instant map travel wouldint feel right

Go one step further. Fighting from mounts. Epic PvP potential imo.

If i wanted to play that game i would be playing wow. |

or better still multiple donkeys and a caravan! and you have to defend your caravan from people looting. imagine the big hauler ships in eve, but with swords, and charr..... i think i've gone off topic here.
back on topic, i agree that if we can't map travel then we'll need a faster way of getting around. I'd jsut rather not end up with something like in wow with the little asurans being forced to ride some mechanical chicken. Imo that is just stupid.

We don't need mounts in GW2.... we need CARS. Cars that run on magic goblin shit or mountain troll tusks instead of gas. Since GW is known for innovation it'd be perfect - the first non-subscription, competitive/c0-op, on-line game with cars and swords and magiks but no guns k

Hmm, if they make mounts equal to another mount, so there is no "my mount is faster", then sure, lets have mounts. I'd like to choose my mount on looks, not on speed stats.
MagmaRed
This is what I see coming from Mounts. If you think this looks good, and would want to use it, then I guess you would want Mounts in GW.
Horus
maybe a map/portal travel for bigger cities, but mounts for some smaller in wilderness hidden outposts etc... and mounts would be usefull for doing quests, so no need to walk somewhere in wilderness, if you can fly/be on mount to travel faster.

I dont think mounts would really be useful, for some strange reason anet encloses all of thier areas with cliffs. Makes it boring to explore/map

Just add the ability to fly and you don't need mounts.

What about mutant seabass? Would those work? We could use those to uhhh ferry us accross the water perhaps? Or eat peoples faces off!
I agree with Ash, we have the ability to teleport from town to town, with mounts it would make runners jobs that much easier. I personally don't see a need for them and it sounds too WoWish...
arcanemacabre
I'm very confused as to why people automatically assume that mounts = travel.
What I find hilarious is if GW didn't have Rangers with pets, and someone would suggest it, these same people would all assume they were talking about puppies, kittens and goldfish, then instantly dismissing it on those assumptions.

Taurucis
I already have a mount in Guild Wars. His name is Mallyx the Unyielding.
Wait, maybe he has a mount named Kai Taurucis...
I think there needs to be a balance between mounts and fast travel. Perhaps you can fast travel to all major towns, but for smaller outposts you'd have to walk or ride.
While we're talking about mounts, I say we should have mounted combat for GW2 x]

If we had ponies it could be kinda lame.
And Dragon vs Pony..... well thats only going to be a one way fight....
edit: its ponies tatile - my bad
Tatile
Ponies? What ever happened to barded battle steeds?
Charging into battle and causing trampling damage against the un-mounted, how is that useful, or cool?
Edit: Pony's or ponies?

let's see ... LotR has mounts, WoW has mounts, and even Sacred has mounts
if the world is free of portals <forever loading> you can still zone outpost to town ... why not be like everyone else?
if you have to charm it and break it and train it not to eat your party and basically make it so absolutely difficult and completely unreasonable to obtain like soloing <ie.no hero's/henchies> Hell's Precipice Hard Mode ... sure why not, it would be great to see people who have no real life outside the game get something

I like the idea of no map travel... and mounts to compensate. It would add a whole new aspect to the game. (The only thing I would ask for is a ferry to a main port city that could be used for trading.)

If we have map travel, we don't need mounts. I don't want mounts in GW2, because if there's mounts, that's because there's no map travel. And map travel is epic win. kthx |
