I just watched the dinosaur trailer, and noticed two things. Both flying. One is a player hanggliding (no idea if it’s gliding on rails or do we get control), and other is flying dragons. So obviously the question pops into my head – how will the two co-relate?

Will there be:
1. air combat – us vs dragons in the air! (though logically we’d be screwed with those paper looking gliders)
2. “no glide zones” cause dragons
3. Air jumping puzzles – avoid the big bad dragon or fall to your doom (unless you get eaten alive first)

The first option does make me wonder. We do have land and water combat so…

I rather wish they first fix underwater combat, or whatever they believe they must do to it, than to add another form of combat. Even so, it is a cool idea. =P

While I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a certain amount of dodging involved, I don’t see aerial combat being a thing (at least with the current mechanics available).

i don’t think they will add air combat. (btw it will be nice for me ^^ )

But i was think about an other idea…. the handglider will be avaiable in the old maps(if we know it) ??? and if it is a yes, do you think it can be avaiable in WvWvW also… because handglider and WvWvW will be…just wow .

dont quote me on this..but i do belive they stated that hangliding wont be available on old maps cause it would break em…ya know jumping puzzles and stuff…but heh maybe the new WVW map got the gliding worked in, that would be neat imo

ANet stated that masteries are PvE only, so no hang gliding in WvW. Sorry to burst your bubble, but honestly, they would defeat the purpose of multiple types of siege.

With how much I hate underwater combat I can only imagine air combat would really hurt this game as I’m sure it would be some what similar. I really hope they don’t add it
