Would you include flying?

Hello Nostalrius community,

With the Vanilla server coming along very nicely, with me enjoying myself and it seems thousands of others. I started to think about what the future would hold and thoughts of a TBC server quickly came to mind. With Nostalrius planning to introduce a TBC server, i was wondering what people would like to be changed (if anything).

With Blizzard admitting that flying was a mistake in many ways, would you like to see a workaround for the new TBC server that meant we would never have flying?

Is there anything else that you would like changed or introduced?

"Having looked at how flying has played out in the old world in the last couple of expansions, we realized that while we were doing it out of this ingrained habit after we introduced flying in The Burning Crusade, it actually detracted from gameplay in a whole lot of ways," Hazzikostas

It would never work, since TBC is built for flying. They would have to rebuild the world to adjust for not having flying mounts.

Oh yes, i know that. Even if it was possible, it would probably not happen. Was just curious as to if it was possible, would people want it.

Flying worked for the Burning Crusade as well as Wrath of the Lich King, they had zones built for flying. Don't want flying in those expansions? Good f-ing luck getting through places like Blade's Edge Mountain and Netherstorm.

No, TBC is not "build" for flying this is a non-sense to say so. Is WoD build for puzzle games?

Remembering the begining of TBC like one of my best Opvp memories, people didn't have the money to fly so the world was still alive...

Not set the flying mounts in TBC would be one of the best and unsafe decision they could ever make, sure some points (like 2/3) would need a teleportation to get there but isn't this little disadvantage worth the risk?

But same than everybody, don't know if it's possible. Even so very unlikely because it wouldn't be """"blizzlike"""" enough.

if they release a TBC server, it would most likely be blizzlike and so include flying.
however, flying mounts (in such extend) were 1 of the most retarded ideas blizzard ever let come true.
