    Not in this game.  The "MMORPG" PvE part isn't big enough to benefit mounts... or in PvP.

    So I highly doubt it.

    Ummm.. would that even work? I mean... it's NOT like any other mmorpg. Traveling in GW is made so that you wont have to run all the boring distances but use instant traveling instead.

    I really doubt anything like that will come or work. Maby in GW 2.

    I don't think we'll ever see mounts in GW because of map travel. There's just no need for them and they could imbalance certain aspects of the game if they were introduced incorrectly.

    There's already a GW2.  They are coming out with the third expansion already.

    Indeed, Factions is no GW2 nor NightFall is going to be GW3, its just an expansion. They use the same engine and just add some features to it. Mounts would be totally inappropriate in GW since you got fast travel. And, since outdoors are instanced-like, you dont need mounts, you need to cross those zones to discover many things, and you dont have to cross em again with fast travel. ANet as definitively pushed on gameplay and PvP instead of exploring, therefor it doesnt need any mounts.

    I think mounts would be totally ineffective in this game.  How can you compete with porting in an instance.  I would much rather do that then take a 2-3 minute ride on a horse (DAOC) or a bat (WOW).  I like GW cause once you discover it you can go back to it in an instant.

    maybe we could get a horse animation for the split second it loads during map travel uh ...

    i hope there will be , nothing that will make you ultra powerfull , becose that is not the gw style , but something that would make you look cool ^^

    i could see mounts very easyly , for exemple a horse , you could have dobble speed but half health.
    if anet wants , they can make it fun and still balanced imo.
