Is there some sort of coding problem that would be a large undertaking to solve?
Like buggy old school written code that doesnt jive with the way mounts work now?

Or is it that the current developers had an inter office fight with the aq40 developers and its political?

Because your explanation of oyu current stance on why there are no bug mounts makes as much sense as...a mekengineers chopper does

The bugs state right on them "Can only be used inside AQ" (40).

That's where they should stay.

*Only* the black bug should be different. Can't get one? Oh well.

Old School code? AQ mounts came after all the racials... so that doesn't make sense, also EVERYONE has an AQ mount, move along, nothing to see here

We are happy leaving them as they are now, which is how they were initially made way back when.

but why? it makes no sense

they count toward the mount achievement, why the refusal?

I can't imagine its to keep people FROM doing aq40, you want people to see content that maybe havent had the chance

i can't imagine its because theyre not int he wow universe, where we have copters and rockets and motor bikes and flying booms and reindeer


I could only think of politics or buggy code , pardon the pun


if you gave a better answer, people wouldnt ask or wonder so much

HAHAHAHAHA!

You can't be serious? He could explain it down to the smallest technical detail and you would still get 3 posts a week on the topic.

They want the mount to remain unique to Scarab Lords.

That is the reason.

They were added as AQ only before you could use your regular mounts in AQ to help guilds move more quickly in the giant scale raid. That is their only purpose, and that's why they cannot be used outside.

Probably because they practically fell out of the sky like rain. You could get your entire 40 man raid a bug mount without ever actually downing the first boss.
