  1. Can't the game just turn off the mounts "abilities" instead? I would like to be able to keep "walking" along ON the mount until I get past the NO-Mount area, rather then be forcibly removed from the mount. The only problem I can think of would be Griffon flight, as in "actually being airborne" at the time, otherwise people will just float to JP's, then again, you could just force a landing. The game already has mechanics to push people back with "currents" and upwards on Gliders with "updrafts", surely turning the current NO-Mount zone into a downdraft would be trivial. The game supports a variety of ability "ghosting" and skill replacing in already in tons of places and instances and story missions, I would assume it would not be that hard?Turn off Raptor dash and Bunny jump etc etc, but let us STAY on the mount and move along. So may times I just skirt NEAR a JP and bam, dumped, and then dumped again just because I zigged instead of zagged as I turned around to switch directions because the Raptor has the turning radius of a Bus, and also, because people keep BREAKING the JP's by finding new spots and angles to STILL use mounts, the "exclusion" zones around JP's keep getting bigger and bigger. Just a thought.
  2. I might not get a chance to come back to read what follow what I am about to say, but here goes. Now, I know about something called "Gambler's Fallacy" or "Monte Carlo Fallacy" where people think erroneously that if a certain event has not come up in while, then surely, there must be a bigger chance it will, soon. I did an experiment, but it did not start out as a such. I wanted to get "just three skins" and see what I got. After all if you get 10, you should just get a 10 Pack and get a discount, and I did NOT want to get that many. I was "hoping" for a Raptor skin, ANY Raptor skin with 4 channels would have made me happy. A Griffon one would just have been a bonus. Three rolls : Rabbit, Fishy, Fishy. I thought. Frak this, how bad can RNG get? Let's test it. Let's "waste gems" and roll a full ten ("wasting" 600 in the process). Look, I'm not rolling in money, but after all the discussions here, I just said "whatever", I might even serve as a horrible example to stop people rolling the dice. Ten Rolls, no Raptor, or even a Griffin. I'm a THIRD of the way through the chart, and RNG was just ... RNG. THIS is why we kinda/sorta hate pure RNG. It is TECHNICALLY possible to buy 10 Licenses and get ONLY the skins for 2 pets ... it's a little demoralizing when you do. I don't feel like I "wasted" money, I mean, I have skins to play with now, but I'm also done with this system. I just wanted a 4 channel skin for EACH mount to screw around with, and I will just buy them one at the time in the new system. With 3 Rabbits, 4 Skimmers and 3 Wolfs, I could roll the dice FIVE MORE TIMEs NINE MORE TIMES apparently - and still get no Raptors or Griffons. THAT is just what RNG does.
