They are in the game...for all of us to see....even outside the opening movie...but sorry no more spoilers :)

It should be noted though that cannons having special effects on them isn't really magitek. In the early Limsa storyline you can see a form of magic that can be used on any old cannon it seems to produce amazingly powerful shots of various types. But yes, Garlean technology is magitek and thus their cannons are magitek cannons. I just wanted to point out that others can produce crazy cannon effects too without magitek.

i haven't gotten very far in the game yet but thank you for pointing that out even if we can eventually get the ability/armor/mount they can make it with no uber powerful cannon just make it as a mount and maybe have an ability you can unlock or something that has a VERY long cool down timer. or something that i have posted in another thread taking CoH (City of Hero's) when you get one character slot on a server up to maximum level you can create a new character from a set of unlocked races/jobs. maybe a couple of ideas would be Summoner, and MagiTek pilot available only after you make one character to max level in all classes

I'm going to have to 100% disagree with opening up options based on maxing out a different character for a few reasons.

1. Character slots (will eventually) cost money. Locking those kinds of things to an additional character you need to pay for wouldn't be a good idea.

2. The game is based around being able to level every class on a single character. Doing it as you propose would mean you would essentially have to re-roll and get back to max everything with that new character with the updated options.

I don't think they would ever do it but it's just something I felt was worth mentioning. I think the entire community would rage if they locked summoner to a post MAX character creation option for a separate character.

i was just putting it out there for like 2 or 4 years away eventually i can definitely see your arguments there and they do make sense but then again it may be the thing to bring back players that reached lvl 50 and decided it wasn't worth holding onto if they could go back to the servers and be able to play a race/job that not everyone has available just might get the game back up if it ever dose make a financial fail or whatever. i never did play XI so i'm not sure if they did the whole "pay per character slot" thats new to me for mmo's was it like that in XI? maybe they will change that in a year or two who knows right?

I know all the FF series are completely non-linear but it would be neat to see some FFVI crossover. Needs moar Espers.

Our dreams are going to come true. Yoshida already confirmed Magitek Armor, it was stated that the armors would be used in a dungeon and a zone that has poison mist on the ground. It was also stated that the armors can shoot beams that use crystals.

Can I get a link to where all that was stated? I know he used the word magitek a few times but I hadn't seen any of that other info.
