I think you nailed it there.

I'm worried that the game is too early in its lifecycle to see Ultima/Omega.. but w/e

Then again, we could see a lvl cap bump with 2.0's release....

FFVII.... Bahamaut, Bahamaut Kai, Bahamut Zero (JP Names)
Pretty sure they can do Omega, Omega MK-II, Omega MK-III, Omega Sigma...etc...etc...

I don't see how its at all productive for Square Enix to dedicate any resources to listening to the irrational whines of a bunch of never-happy entitlement cry babies.

---

I wish the word entitled would not exist anymore on the internet. If you pay for a service you are entitled to an opinion, though admittedly whining and complaining doesn't help, consumer feed back is very important for a company. If they fail to listen to the consumers, odds are they end up with well... what I've heard 14 was when it released. I really like 14. Hell, I really love Final Fantasy. I love Square, I mean they're the people (or at least some of the people) who made the awesome games that I played in my childhood and still play. But if they were to release a crummy game well... I wouldn't play it. Everyone on these forums knows that 14 has potential (I think), and if Square has to sift through a couple of threads with a little bitching to find the good, innovative feedback that helps them to create a better game, then good.

I think people rage because we don't like to be treated like we're stupid. "You think we wouldn't find out? you think we didn't know?". That's the bottom line really. An insult to our intelligence as intelligent beings (supposedly).

On another note about E3. I really hope they do release more than CGI. CGI is not gameplay, is not content, is not anything but eyecandy. It's nice but only if there are other stuff backing it. Releasing only CGI will hurt them I think. FFXIV has nice CGI but look at what happened. I want to see user interface, I want to see redesigned areas, at the very least some pictures.

So we have 2 new art at least (maybe 3). This topic was useless.. :/

If anything, this thread is nothing more than a case of "if the shoe fits". Most posters in support of this thread have already given themselves away in that regard. Sorry.

It's quite possible that the Japanese text might have reflected that the art wasn't new on their side, whereas the opposite occurred on the NA and other sides since the art is actually new. Differences in localizations are built into the game even(see ENG Marauder vs JPN Executioner).

Given that .dat mining is against the ToS, naturally they aren't going to account for things you shouldn't have already seen anyway.

God, too true!!

Maybe they'll end it? I mean, they're totally not cut out for each other.
Or maybe...like the female preying mantis, Square will devour Enix after mating. We just need them to make one Final Fantasy/Dragon Quest hybrid, and it'll be back to just good 'ole Square!

Yay!

Meh, they are just trying to do something fun for the community, though, I do agree it should have been something <new never before seen> 2.0 images. Though, either way, meh. It's not like its going to effect the game at all.

Not really, take a look at other FF games when you encounter these creations, usually you get the first glimpse or mention (if not side content) around the 2nd disk (or around the 20 hour mark), FFXIV is going on it's 2nd year and not even had 1 expansion pack yet, it's the perfect time. At that point people were getting raped and crying for their mommy/nerfs against XI's introduction of Ultima & Omega.

As I am looking right now and as of yesterday the Concept is different then from what is being shown from the Open Post.

If this was said already then I apologize because I am not going to search through all 38 Pages of post just to find out.



EDIT: OK thanks to slow internet connections I see that what is being shown on the Open Post is the Japan Concept art.

Could this be Blue Dragon from FFVIII =? http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/a...9&d=1337304435



Edit : :p

Who cares about King Behemoth~ We get colorful dragon!

Nothing more than filler to string you along. Keep you thinking and make it look like they are actually doing something.

Yea... I guess it could be Blue Dragon although I've never had the pleasure of playing Final Fantasy 18
The thing that's throwing me is the tail fin and fin ridges along the back. Bring on the aquatic themed guesses

most likely a dragon.

Greetings,

First I'd like to apologize about the confusion that was caused in part due to our initial announcement of the Hidden Arts event. It was not our intention to mislead anyone and we worked to get that Topics information corrected before we followed up with you all. We strive to ensure that these kinds of mix ups don't occur, but when they do, we redouble our efforts to avoid it again in the future. We sincerely appreciate your understanding in this matter.

I also wanted to let you know that when we reveal all of the pieces of artwork across the regions, we plan on including an extra surprise for you all.

Again, we apologize for the confusion and we hope you're all looking forward to seeing each of the images fully revealed.

It takes some balls to enter this topic and make a calm response, especially when the topic is directed negatively at you.

I wonder what this extra surprise is? :P

Yes, it's almost like the team is made up of genuinely good people just trying to do the best they can. Ahem, seriously though, great job with the event guys, I'm really enjoying myself. Thank you very much for putting up with us and holding yourselves to a high standard. I'd also like to offer my respect. You deserve it.

Bahamut! <_< least it looks like a Bahamut, I"m not sure what we have though it's definitely a dragon type, and as for the german one I'm still saying Phoenix even though it prolly isn't lol

To be honest though I had a feeling they would have something else planned for tomorrow and all this was just a setup for another reveal, wonder if they'll reveal it before or after all 9 questions are answered.

Totally ultima weapon.... Glad someone else made the connection.

If that thing ends up being ultima weapon or any weapon for that matter, I'm going to be squealling like a girl XD.

You and me both. The Weapons are my favorite bosses in the franchise, personally. Emerald still unnerves me, must've submerged practically on top of it at least a dozen times during my first VII playthrough.

+1 to Bayohne for a calm, helpful response to a ridiculous topic.

Seriously, the Rep/Community team has my respect! Not only them, but the Dev and Yoshi as well! All of XIV Team has my respect. Keep up the good work! :D /respect /salute

That'd be...interesting. Dalamud is actually housing a bunch of WEAPONS inside of it and when it gets close enough, so that the seal that is on Dalamud (ie. the glowing lights that make patterns on it) they are unsealed, released out into the open world as roaming NMs of sorts, restricted to no particular area to wreck havoc on any and all that may cross their paths.

That could be fun.

Im going with those forge monsters from 13 as far as what that is...could totaly also be it
