New mount glitch

[DaggermasterWinterhoof]

when you mount up and run forward on your mount and cancel mount while going forward in the air it catapults your character forward considerably more than it used to

I cant notice any difference...

i will upload a video if needed

Working as intended I believe, since it used to happen and even has a graphic effect.

[DaggermasterWinterhoof]

thats the graphic for getting catapulted forward maybe not made for this

Pre-5.1 it slowed you down a fair amount, but in 5.1 it feels as if it's keeping your speed from the mount. I.E On my Dk, Roughly 495% speed on my flyer, so i just zoom through the air!

This is a new change that came with 5.1. When you dismount you will now retain your forward momentum regardless of how fast you were going. Makes for some very long and fun Slowfalls.

Not sure why Blizzard did this, but I think it is intended... at least I certainly hope it is! The exploration possibilities certainly seem improved with this change.

haah I noticed it now. For some reason I only bothered to try it on my ground mount xD

I was honestly shocked it was even posted here... as I figured everyone would "discover" this the moment they tried to dismount while flying...

Still looking very forward to seeing what sort of places we could access easier by using this new phenomenon...get on it, community!

Yep was like this before with Druids. That's awesome that It works with any flying mount now, more potential in exploring
