PS3 FATE Issues

I'm not sure if this has been brought up, though I feel it has but felt just in case I would officially mention it here on the forums. FATEs on the PS3, specifically the later FATEs in which a lot of players are participating in, appear to be either broken or borderline impossible. Specifically FATEs revolving around mobs or bosses. They don't seem to spawn properly and when they do show up they are already almost dead.

Here is a video.

The issue seems to be only based on the PS3, all my PC friends have had no similar issue (even when partying with me for FATEs). In the video there I attempted Svara (I believe it is called), a Dragon Boss who has never shown up for me. I constantly only see the players wailing at the air and the occasional mob. I've got a pretty solid connection too so I don't feel that is the reason.

Any feedback would be awesome.

SE screwed up in their priority tables as to what shows on the screen. PS3 has some heavy restrictions put on it and one of them is a limit as to how many people are on the screen at one time. Apparently they did not jack the priority on mobs.

This is a major issue, I have done this FATE many of times and it can be a pain to see the main dragon. If your in a group you can just help with the small adds by staying in the back and get full credit, but that is not what you want to do.

I normally see just Chocobo companions and SCH/SMN pets fighting the boss if I go near it, and risk a death since I have no idea where the boss is facing and also do not see his AoE because hes not visible or targetable by me.

The priority for loading in is off for sure, and it should be fixed in time, hopefully sooner than later.

Glad I'm not the only one.

If you guys see something attacking the boss, can you target the thing that's attacking it and then target the boss itself through that?

I know it's not exactly a great solution to the problem, but at least you can get an idea of what the monster is doing, and also attack it and participate.

I don't have the PS3 version myself, so I don't know how applicable this is, but in the PC version you can target your target's target through the UI. Wondering if that is possible on the PS3 version to at least be able to participate. It might not be possible simply because the mob doesn't exist according to your game, just throwing out an idea.

Yeah priority seems to carbuncle. I know he is cute but come on!!
I would prefer to see the enemy I'm dieting from and be able to target it.

The priority is not just for loading it is also for target selecting :(
