The difference between Naga and Worgen, though, is that while Worgen don't have a racial mount, they're perfectly capable of riding another race's mount, physically. Worgen can still grind for a horse or mechanostrider. Naga would have a hard time riding, well, anything. Meaning they have access to NO mounts whatsoever.Feath3r wrote:If they're willing to do it for the Worgen, why not any other race? Next expansion could have the Alliance get a mount race and the Horde get the Naga and they don't get mounts which will even out the Worgen not getting a mount.Azunara wrote:Alright. The issue? We won't very likely ever see four legged or no legged models, simply because they'd have issues on mounts. Sure, don't give them a mount. That works. But you've just screwed them over achievement mounts, mount runs, and all sorts of lovely things.
As much as I'd love dryads,or naga, I doubt it will happen. D:
(Also, paladins get 3 exclusive mounts, which gives them an advantage over other classes in terms of mount achievements)
Since when did the Naga get a facelift?

Worgen are two-legged. Naga are...no legged. XDFeath3r wrote:If they're willing to do it for the Worgen, why not any other race?

So they'd have different mount animations than normal. Big whoop. It's a fantasy game, think outside the standard humanoid box.

Re: Since when did the Naga get a facelift?
Exactly. It's not hard to sit differently on a mount to make up for the loss of legs, especially some of the Horde mounts. (Though I think the Hawkstrider's would die of fright)Cerah wrote:^ ThisAnyia wrote:Side-saddle?Kryte wrote:Naga would have a hard time riding, well, anything.

I think Metzen mentioned once he would like to see them playable, as well as goblins, and we have goblins now, so ...
Here's hoping I always liked Naga. Never understood why they were considered an "evil" race -- they're just mer-blood elves, when you think about it.
And yeah, Na'vi were quite a bit like a weird three-way hybrid of Troll, Tauren and Night Elf, (and kind of like Protoss, with their hair USBs) but cool all the same.

What about four legged creatures though? Sure, you can explain naga, but what about others?

Re: Since when did the Naga get a facelift?
I <3 the Idea Of them being playable for sure, as Cerah stated there are allot of cases of them joining with other forces other than their own. They still in MGT chilling out with Kael atm, they have a good alliance with some Belfs due to past history.
Funny I thought side saddle for mounts straight off the bat too but as Azu said...
Those ones I can't really think of another way around for them to ride mounts. But Naga are "doable" I guess considering they are the topic of choice here. It would take a lot of work though. There be an awful amount of tail/fin/ and gear they would have to work out to try and avoid too much weird clipping. And just the sheer amount of coding to make boots/pants "work" would be very time consuming. But hey, they would still look excellent if you ask me

OMG i just realized I'm a dragon stalker now. Does that mean I should be at least 500m away from Krasus?

Re: Since when did the Naga get a facelift?
Too much coding, I'd imagine. I just don't think it's plausible. And as for stalking dragons...You stay away. Creepy.pop wrote:coach/sleigh/chariot pulled by current mounts?Azunara wrote:What about four legged creatures though? Sure, you can explain naga, but what about others?

Re: Since when did the Naga get a facelift?
OMG that's brilliant! That could work for Naga too, for mounts that would be too awkward to ride side-saddle.pop wrote:coach/sleigh/chariot pulled by current mounts?Azunara wrote:What about four legged creatures though? Sure, you can explain naga, but what about others?
Hell, I'd love a chariot anyway. /pictures chariot pulled by raptors
