Solzean Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 So has Bioware ever stated that they were planing or did not wan to let us ride, say Taun Taun? One of my favorite parts about an MMO is the individual feeling you can get. Now, with the current way gear works we are not able to really feel unique.(Unless they let us take apart our purple gear) But have they ever said they would let us get all different kinds of Animals as mounts? It seems like they are giving us more minipet options which i like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrissiurso Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Yes please.... I don't want a tauntaun pet to follow me around. I want to ride one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insomnio Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Yes animal mounts, that way we can joust on tantans and dewbacks and have cockfights on orobirds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowrouge Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Not sure on BW outlook since the guild summit. But before launch they said many many times there will be no animal mounts in the game. Vehicles only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insomnio Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I hope they weaponize some of the mounts. Give a light blaster to some elite speeders. Give a bite / claw attack to animal mounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solzean Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Well that is a bit depressing if they really won't let us ride any animal mounts. Especially because in the movies we see so many animal mounts and some that can even match the speed of technological mounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgelling Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 The Tauntaun pet is adorable, but I really thought it'd be a full-size one. My pet is all skin and bones if I run out of food and would make an extremely poor sleeping tent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanderSol Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I want my Varactyl for Pre-ordering Rage of the Wookiees quite honestly. Never used another mount after i got Spike from RotW. RIP Spike: Dec 15, 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know that is so true- sandpeople in the original starwars had bantha mounts, stormtroopers used dewbacks. tantans in empire strikes back. episode 1 had those beasts that the jarjars rode and the furry things pulling the podracers episode 2 had them in the arena where they mounted some of the animals episode 3 had anikin taming the beast on naboo, obiwan rode that lizard to kill grevious Animal mounts are a pivotal part of star wars. I think obi wan even kissed the lizard- isn't that part of the criteria for including things in game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMacneish Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 animal mounts yes ONLY if there slower than speeders and can only be used on planets that they would be found on so banthas on tatooine + tauntauns on ice lanets etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanderSol Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 In regards to the Episode 1/2 animal mounts the other guy mentioned...Naboo has not been discovered yet chronologically. No Gungans, etc. for their mounts. Thankfully. /Nerdyness off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dubaco Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I think that animal mounts should work in the same way the Nar Shadaa "public speeders" work. You find them on a specific planet and if you wanna ride them, you right click 'em. So there could be special spots like a "stable" for dewbacks or tauntauns.

celebrei Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I dont think a mechanical mount is as striking or appealing as a creature mount, lets face it even in vanity pets the new biological ones are more popular than the sand crawler and robotic pets.
