PS3 UI Screens

The "Stance" option caught me by surprise and I thought we could change how characters posed but then I snapped out of it, its probably for the acion/passive modes gimmick.

Stances were an original concept that never got implemented yet much like the Arrow Nock type.

I like it, the only thing is curious about is do you have that 16 total slots across all jobs, or do you have anew set for each job, as 16 will be tricky if you have all jobs levelled since you need to use 2 sets for job abilities to match the amount the keyboard layout has. Allowing only 8 classes and jobs.

I remember when I played FFXI I needed to print stuff from my computer just to get quests done.

It will be eventually. SE (and other companies) often release the information to the press before updating official repositories. This helps generate more buzz since press sites are now releasing new, if not exclusive, information - which means the press is more interested. It also helps the community (although it might not seem like it) by allowing community sites to form and generate their own communities - which helps fill in the gaps left by official sites.

For those only following the official sites, the information will ultimately get there.

Sure is subjective there. SWTOR didn't meet expectations != crap game. (And that's coming from someone who stopped playing and didn't like the game...)

Crap game was XIV 1.0 at release, that can be considered as a crap game. Where everything (well the few things available) didn't even work properly. Even if SWTOR went F2P and didn't meet expectations, the game may not be the best, but it's far from being "crap".

If SWTOR was crap according to your standards, I hope that ARR is crap as well then.

Sure is subjective there. Not meeting expectations =! crap game. XIV met no one's expectations because it was unfinished and the higher ups rushed it out. It's funny how you'll defend everything but come XI/XIV you'll throw out the same defensive logic you use.

Both games suffered problems in different areas that would classify both of them as "crap games." Next you'll say "but most people agreed XIV was crap"..hey so did most people about TERA and SWTOR, but you say otherwise.

I do. Not only does it show that the PS3 version is truly being developed, but it shows that they care, etc. You really don't realize how many people do not go around searching for screens online do you? >.> Not trying to sound mean or anything, but I mean...we all just want this game to do well, no? Like I said, I have a LOT of friends who play FFXI and other MMO's over the years and whenever I mention FFXIV it is STILL people saying they are unsure of it, where is the PS3 version, they do not know a majority of the stuff that most folks on here do because SE does not include it in the official website. They updated their official FB page though, so that is a start. :)

Most people are lazy online...they just want to go to one place for all their info. These people are also very hesitant about even thinking about giving this game a second chance. Why would they go around looking for info on a game they really didn't like and are kind of afraid of because SE's mistake? This is what they are telling me anyway. These are the people SE needs to convince to come back, not the people who are on this forum already, like you and I.

When I was interested in playing Lineage II all my boyfriend had to do was link me to their website and all the info I could have ever wanted was on there. Job info, races, the world map and content that I could expect to find in the game. Plenty of artwork and screenshots..and they had a little section for updates with new info! It is really simple.

I know they will update the site eventually, so I really don't care all that much. Like I keep saying, its not my game, not really my problem. I gave up trying to convince my friends to come play it. Maybe if SE advertises it well enough one day they will /shrugs.

New Akihiko Yoshida art always a good thing~



I think the new Controller UI looks amazing.

Hopefully it will be ready for the Alpha/Beta

Hopefully I can get into the Alpha/Beta...
