    Yes you can jump, which you would have known if you'd spent those 2 seconds on youtube.

    Today I learned that GW2 will take place in a gray void.

    Just to also point out you can also "Walk" though why that is important I'm not sure but in several video's from Gamescom they made the point that you could walk and jump.

    Well if you have a cool feature you want to make sure ppl know about it ;)

    If you haven't seen the Gamescom 2011 Demo, you should check it out, even if it's not just to see that there is jumping in the game:

    A couple of jumps:

    3:37 to 3:43

    3:55 to 3:59

    Plus, there are skills where you leave the ground, impacts that can send you flying, etc...

    The same demo is available in better quality at http://www.guildwars2.com/en/media/videos/

    Yes and you will have to either reach level 155 or buy 100$ of RMT "optionals" in order to see the basic scenery.  For another 50$ you can get to see the trees and rocks (which i heard were nice). It's an instanced game where, by default, you reside in an instance of 1 so you can experience the carefully crafted story more intimately, without being bothered by other players. If you want to play the game with your buddy you can pay 33 cents per minute through our premium account program, or you can expend dorkwads which are easily obtainable by 20 minutes(china sweatshop standard) of solo  grind (sorry,  PvE content) per piece (each is worth five minutes of coop play).

    If you want to PvP you can do so in a fair arena which ensures fair play by having everybody fight with their bare fists and in underwear (whose design can be changed through xxxtremey reasonable RMT shop or the aforementioned dorkwads). There are weapons as well that you can purchase and earn through your dilligence, such as Massive Fireball Extrector of Demolition or Spiky Terminatador of Extinction all of which can be easily obtained through our entirely optional RMT shop.

    Jumping is in but you have to activate this novel feature by typing a handy emote /executejump into the console. This mechanic is in place in order to prevent the excessive and annoying "bunnyhopping", the main scourge of mmoprgs, as determined by our well staffed and experienced QA team (some worked for  Blizzard, i mean they weren't actually employed by Bliz but 4+ years f wow has to count as some kind of game design experience, right?). General movement is exclusively point-and-click in order not to intimidate the general public. Keyboard shortcuts are limited to game options, save game (yes, we can do that! its a mmo revolution!) and the entirely optional RMT shop for the very same reason.

    Have a nice day and hope to see you in our game!

    Just watched one of the PAX videos today and the devs said, YES you can jump.  PAX 2011 on YouTube

    I think it's 3 or 4 parts and I don't remember which one mentions jumping, but they do.

    what the fuck

    Tired of people asking the same old dumb questions. The sarcastic demon took hold of me. If you can't bother to look up basic information on the game then gtfo and wait till it comes out. Until then, I heard SWTOR is great. They've got full VO and glowy swords! It's gonna revolutionize the genre! Now I can listen to inconsequential droll NPC quest description without having to read it! And what's more, I don't have to look at the other players saving the world by killing the same 10 bountyhunters through the revolutionary magic of phasing! Progress! That really puts the mmo back into the mmorpg formula! Woo Hooo! Jeez... Whoever still thinks GW2 is a fully instanced game with "no jumping" deserves not to play it.

    And that applies to me, how...?

       The walk feature makes  the RP'rs happy.  I remember last year that there was actually some complaints that there wouldn't be walking because it wasn't needed.... well..... there's walking.

      As to the jumping, not to sound mean but if you couldn't be bothered to actually look for the info, which takes less time than starting this thread I might add,  I question wether you are even interested to begin with.  Good day.

    I don't know why everyone has to be a douche just because the OP asked a simple question.



    Yes, it would have been easy for the OP to google this info, but did this really deserve two pages of flames? To be honest, this is the first question i had about GW2 as well.



    And really, is the normal fanboi war drivel that usually goes on at these forums so important that this guy's question just can't be tolerated?

    Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob?

  • YaosYaos Member UncommonPosts: 153

    Not only have they removed jumping, they removed all 3D. The game now uses the Doom engine, which is 2.5D. This means the world will appear 3D, but it's actually an illusion as everything is on the same 2D plane.

    I already politely answered his question in the thread that, yes....you will be able to jump.  Then he comes up with "so jumping is an emote?"  That question was based on someone else's rather tongue in cheek explanation, but seriously....a little common sense goes a long way.  I understand why people get frustrated and snappy in threads like this.  Now everyone just thinks he's gullible so they're saying all kinds of crazy shit...just for the hell of it.

    Oh? I watched a video developer interview where they said they dumped the idea of Doom engine and went with MUD isntead. It will be fully text based experience with dynamic, turn-based combat and voiced-over descriptions of locations along with top-notch midi soundtracked provided separately, recorded on a casette as well as intro movie composed of stills on additional  BETA tape. 

    It's also rumoured the game will be compatible with both Comodore 64 and Atari, no word on port to NES yet however.

    Of course it has jump.

    Any game that can't even implent simple effective jump (Jump that can jump over obstacles) aren't worth playing.
