Guild Wars 2

There was a mounted enemy in the trailer for guild halls. now that they have the animations and assets in the game, anyone think they will implement them for players?

uh oh here we go!! just kidding.
I am for mounts. I now we don’t need them because of the amazing map travel in this game. With that aside I still would love to show it off and run faster all the time. Maybe one day.. I can dream can’t I?

As I recall, Anet officially stated those ‘mounted enemies’ are simply one enemy. It’s not some guy mounting a beast.

In other terms, they simply slapped a bad guy model ontop of a beast and made it a new enemy, there isn’t any ‘mounting’ animations or such.

Well, there might be, but it’s just an animation. It’s still one creature, as far as the game’s concerned.

In other words, they used a trick that won’t work for player characters.

Correction: The used a trick that ALREADY works for player characters.

Broom, Flying carpet, etc.

And for function, Siege Golem, Mechanical Devourers and soon drive-able Charr tanks.

So basically, mounts/vehicles function as transformations.

If there are any ride-able creatures in HoT, they will likely function as a transformation, and only with the map the creatures are found, likely picked up at some type of ranch or stable like the Mecha-Devourers at the workshop in the Silverwastes.
