Drunk Windsteed

Unread post by evil950510 »

I found a funny little bug with the Windsteed mount. If your flying and stop on slope the mount will lean with the ground causing it to slant while idling. It has something to due if the mounts collision box, but it makes the mount look like it is having trouble with staying upright.

They've really done some horrible things to it in the latest build. Have you tried riding it on the ground? It's like a caricature of a bronco ride. It's bizarre to see.

Hopefully these are experiments and not intended changes.

My cloud serpent was doing the exact same thing >< It would tilt oddly every time I moved.

How can Blizz break so much stuff? XD

Probably because it's a delicate matrix of computer codes and the slightest twitch can disable all of Orgimmar. :) Only the blood of gnomes and the tears of QQers keep it together sometimes.

I want to know this, too.

Also; go home, Windsteed, you're drunk.

I'm not sure if we know the source for getting them yet, PTR characters automatically have it added to their mount list.

Somewhere it said that it'll be a Blizz store mount, but right now it's too early to tell

As a wow newbie I need to ask - how was it with previous exclusive mounts - ie store mounts, but also the AP one? Were they included (and available) in the PTR testing?

This is also happening with my Jade Pandaren Kite mount. It's very annoying.

Actually, with the latest patch, it does seem to be fixed. Thankfully!

Last edit...It is still appearing to happen in some areas, went to check out the new dailies in Krasarang and while hovering over the water it tilts. Nothing as far as I can see that is effecting terrain.
