Force PS3 players to migrate over to PS4 and then drop support for it

1. OP sound stupid as hell.

2. When they do stop support for PS3, PS3 players will still be able to play and obtain every expansion just like when SE dropped support for the PS2 NA and EU. FFXI is still supported on PS2 in Japan.

While I do plan to upgrade to PS4... Your description of PS3 game play better fits my experience trying to run on my PC. Typically my PS3 is actually better. So really what you are saying is "force everyone to get better hardware no matter the cost". Which is kind of preposterous. I am not spending $1500 on a new PC. Were I not going to be playing other games I wouldn't be spending $400 on a ps4 either.

It\\'s 2014, and this is not acceptable.

One of two things needs to happen with this game going forward - either the PS3 players need to have their own servers and dumbed down interface/graphics/versions of content, or SE needs to force them to migrate over to the PS4 and pull the plug on PS3 support once the next expansion hits.

Or you can just change your Hard Disk Drive (HDD) to a Solid State Drive (SSD) like me and everything is as smooth as any high end pc!!!

I canceled my sub 1.5 month ago. I just browse the forum because i can and for some reason you don't even need an active account to post. I usualy always go back to the games i quit so reading forums and seeing the complains is a way to remind me why i quitted. Any problem with that sir?

SSD is incredibly expensive for its capacity.

The performance increase is the entire point of a SSD. People aren't buying them for the capacity.

So in short, they still support it until further notice lol.

As a PS3 player I can definitely say it's not THAT bad... There's slight lag on occasion, but I think I have lag because I'm a TimeWarner Cable Internet customer, not because of the PS3... I can do anything just fine, Coil, Primals, CT, nothing I do causes the issues you're describing.

I may get a PS4 upgrade anyways just because I want to, but I would be pissed if I were forced to. Nice try.

I woulde like it more if the droped PC support and make it ps3 ps4 excluise no1 realy likes u pc users tho
