New Blog post "Interview with Director/Producer"

The (Exploration) tag is interesting.

Now that's out the way, I can imagine it now "Can you tell us about xxx system?" Well I shouldn't really, but who will know so... lol

DO NOT PURCHASE THAT CONTROLLER!
My wife and I purchased two for XIV1.0 and they always randomly lost connection with their wireless dongle. If you look up connection issues with that specific controller there are quite a few complaints on the Logitech website.

(I think we saw Okipuit, Camate, Bayohne, Rukkirii, Triary, Foxclon - ok that one is probably obvious - and did we have Fernehalves?)
Any ideas on this? (And no - I live to far away to stalk them. Even if it is the U.S. ;) )

Rukkiri, Bayhone, Camate and Okipuit work at the North American offic, Triary and Foxclon work at the Japanese office. Fern also works at the Japanese office, but his ticket to America got stolen.

Thanks for the advice. The wireless connection was actually what had me wondering the most (that and the d-pad). Guess a new PS3 controller it is.

Is that the score for that sony laptop?

I presume is a 'scenery/enviroment only' benchmark, about new areas and stuff.

I wonder if Yoshi is finally thinking to delay the launch to implement such a common thing like PvP.

This is another proof of what i said in my old topic (the one about real game direction).

For journalists and casual/new players the PVP it's a MUST!
And releasing a game without it, will have a terrible impact on the game release.
I can already imagine the waterfall of negative comment from both sites reviews and players,
like: where is the PvP ? SE din't learn from it's past errors, they released again an incomplete game etc. etc.

And if you want my personal opinion, the success of an MMO (commercial speaking) it's decreted by it's launch.

Release a complete of all features game = Success!
Release an incomplete game, with promises like: Oh in the very first patch it will have PvP = FAIL!

If the PvP it's really scheduled for the 1° major patch, just like housing, why don't delay the game of 1-2 month?

Again sorry for my english, i hope you'll understand what i mean ;)

I use Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows. You just plug in receiver and it works, no need to install drivers.

I know, but I find that controller unnecessarily large and heavy, the batteries terrible (that bulky nickel battery they sell separately), the d-pad hideous, and the asymmetrical sticks uncomfortable. So yeah, no. :/

I've been looking for an alternative, but I guess I'll still have to deal with MotionInJoy if I want a reliable (and comfortable) wireless controller.
