Kingdom Hearts III Travel System predictions

[TD Twilight 82]

So i've been playing a couple KH games for the first time, BBS and DDD, and something different i notice about all the games is how you travel from world to world. In kingdom hearts 1, its a relatively simple system where you fly through space one directionally and shoot enemies. KH2 build on this idea and made it a lot harder/more strategic. However, in BBS, you fly a keyblade glider between worlds, and in DDD, you drop. I was wondering if you guys had any predictions for the direction that they will go for KH3? I dont think it will be too similar to BBS or DDD because Sora will be with Donald and Goofy, So i would say that its very likely that we see a gummi ship world travel system again in KH3. I think it will be a lot harder, and maybe even will be multi directional as far as movement goes. What are you guys thoughts on this? Will they stick with a gummi ship system, use something like BBS or DDD, or will it be a totally new system that we havent yet seen? Let me know so we can discuss

Gummis are confirmed to be back, will probably build on KH2's system.

 

Really, KH3 just builds on KH2 top to bottom - it doesn't have that many unique systems, so far.

I do think that Gummi ships would be ideal for this game, they've got so much potential! Sora Donald and Goofy can't get on a single glider so Gummi ships are the best method of transport.

 

First off, I think the missions will come back but hopefully they'll be more refined and I can guarantee they'll look amazing! One aspect I imagined was that you could land the ship in a certain locations inside a world, and that's one way of leaving the world. When you leave a world you'll get a blast off animation and a little cutscene, and when you land you'll also get a landing animation with some cool dialogue.

 

Hopefully we'll get to customise the ship more-colours, Disney and FF themed stickers, do extra missions for extra rewards and explore the realms inbetween a lot more. 

 

A star wars or treasure planet world could take advantage of this and show off the Gummi ship's capabilities even more!

They added flowmotion to the game so thats a pretty huge difference as far as the gameplay. I didnt know anything was confirmed about the gummis coming back though.

ya i think its an awesome system, but the flaw in the other games was there were no real in game rewards for completing gummi missions. Maybe theyll add things like items and upgrades for completing gummi missions next time around

Yeah, Gummi ships were too ambitious for the PS2, but with the PS4 they should be able to make them into something really good.

[Iggy 76]

Too ambitious for PS2...lol?  Dude, how many Ace Combat games did we have on PS2?

I know that this is a completely different title, but I would like to see a mini Star Fox level in the Gummi Ship

I have a feeling it'll be a Gummi Ship system, but I imagine that it will implement a lot more dimensionality and creativity from the Keyblade Glider and Dive systems. Like for instance, it might move in a more 3-dimensional space like the Keyblade Glider could and there could also be a wider range of attacks available by default similar to both Keyblade Glider and Dive Mode, maybe even with special abilities that can be temporarily picked up like in Dive Mode. It would also be nice to have the Gummi routes appearances be somewhat connected to the world they belong to, like in DDD where each Dive represented and resembled the world you were entering. Basically I'd be hoping for some kind of nice fusion between KH2, BbS, and DDD in terms of dynamic action and dimensional gameplay, with of course some original imagination from generally being a new numbered title as well. The travel sections should be just as exciting as the worlds themselves in my opinion.

Gummi Ships where confirmed in the same leak that confired 2.8 (as 2.9) But that leak also said 2.9 would have Attraction Flow and we havn't seen that in any trailers for 2.8. But I'm pretty sure Gummi Ships will come back it's just one of those this that's expected from a numbered title like the command menu and I think Square knows that.

Well human, what'll most probably happen is that there'll be a fusion of all types of travel in Kingdom Hearts III! It'll probably be a new spin on Gummi Ships that brings nostalgia to older humans, while packing in some punch and dazzle to newer humans, which should add a nice middle zone for all humans to enjoy! I've dabbled in other dimensions, so if anything, I'd make these Gummi Routes into all kinds of insane obstacle courses to push through!

I would imagine the Gummi ship would return seeing as how that's become the part of the core of the number titles.

It's going to be gummi ships, but it'll borrow some characteristics from BbS and DDD, I can imagine.
