Vegeta Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I was reading and I had seen that there is some sort of misconception that fly is somehow "unbalanced", please explain how? For one, you cant fly without the HM, you have to previously visited the town, you have to own a Poke able to learn the move and also a badge "unlocking" the ability to use the move out of battle. So on top of all that why should flying and the use of other HMs be a money sink? It doesnt make any sense to me at all and Ive talked with quite a few people and we all came to the same conclusion. So can someone please explain what makes the ability to fly unbalanced. Its literally just a way to travel town to town only, and only to places youve already been.

Mephilist Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Vegetas right on this one. Fly is just a ordinary more (that can help ease travel). Dont know about everyone else but I for one do not want to Walk all around Hoenn when its released..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegeta Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 I mean you have to walk it all initially, but having to pay some sort of coinage or in game currency to fly town to town makes no sense. Now having coins to fly to special areas or to specific routes or whatever would be fine cause its something special that you wouldn't normally have the ability to do.

Engineer Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Fly is still in debate, but is not a priority at the moment. The reason for the debate is Fly can take away the necessity of items such as Escape Rope, Potions, Revives, Ether, etc. When you are grind training in a far away place, the system needs those items to be used, otherwise their value will go way down.

Lentz Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Our discussion is leaning towards putting in a transport method using fly, but it would not be free. With any MMO setting such as this keeping a good economy is a very important thing. So chances are if fly is implemented you will be charged to use it.

Guest Insanity Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Yeah, I really really hope that it doesn't cost currency that you have to pay for with IRL cash though. Because that is kinda greedy tbh, not going to lie and sugarcoat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do believe that it should charge you to use fly, but with Pokedollars not those coins that you have to pay for. This supports the idea of a cash sink which I believe is a very good idea.
