So if your on the PS3 , Should we have to avoid the Large FATES? PS4 going be same?

I would accept this rule , but defiance on the xbox , Does battles bigger then this and . They had a lot more players on and more bigger explosions, just might get little lag, But you were still able to play that games massive fights with limited issues after the first 2 weeks. Were now on like what 4 weeks here? lame can not fight odin or behometh. Or got to skip half the fate when exping.

You buy the game for PS3 assuming you will actually be able to play the game on PS3. I didn't read anywhere on my copy that I would not be able to play certain content. It's a scam that they have not even attempted to fix.

Uh, for what it's worth even PC players can't see Odin or Behemoth most of the time unless you're right in their faces, and you're chancing certain death being that close.

They've already said they're going to address the display priority issue for Odin and Behemoth, they just haven't given a specific date yet.

Yes, they have said they are working on it. That doesn't change the fact that it should have been fixed yesterday... It's been a month, and what should be a simple fix doesn't even have a date. The only reason I am not totally bent over it is because I know they are working on lots of things at once. Something THIS broken deserves an "emergency maintenance" kind of fix, instead of a vague tbd one, however.

Nothing can currently make this fate tolerable on ps3. You can turn off everything; character names, floating dmg txt, spells, effects in motion, hp bars... And instead of rendering more players and mobs, the stupid code instead renders more garuda's, chocobos and the totally pointless 50 flame circles and shadowflares that lag even my high end pc. When I tell the game to show spell effects = none I mean NONE.

Toss in the goofy lvl 10-20 players who flock to odin, or the goofier lvl 30ish ones who swarm behemoth... They cannot get gold in the encounter, even if they did their own max dps for the entire fight. That doesn't stop them from adding to the problem though.

The cherry on top is the lame wait time to even see the bosses. I had two lvl 50's before I even had the chance to fight behemoth once, just because I never knew the fight was happening. By the time I could buy the spear for my DRG, it was no longer worth wearing. Now the same has also happened to my PLD with zantetsuken.

As a ps3 player,

im aware of the large fates being non-playable because you cant see anything lol so i usually just jump in fates at night ONLY.
ive fought odin twice as a melee/ps3 player. i try to follow the crowd or stream of blue arrows towards an invisible object and pray to get a hit on.
trying to hit a sliding horseman and seeing no animations for ur moves is kinda funny. haven't gotten more than a silver tho :(

Even healing in svara is funny. I'll just be like "srry man, i cant see you" lol

For me, if the boss is invisible, I cannot get a target lock, therefore, I gain no experience...

Just as a heads up for those of you who plan to continue playing on PS3:

Their fix for the Odin/Behemoth fate is to set priority rendering only for those fates. All the other large FATE issues we have (e.g. not being able to hand in FATE items because we can't find the NPC, not being able to tag mobs to get credit for FATEs because they're dying to fast) will not be addressed.

Playing FATES in this game on PS3 is horrible in general. Not just Odin/Behemoth, though these seem to be the gamebreakers.

I honestly haven't had huge glaring issues with fates, except Behemoth. I've reliably been see Odin throughout entire fights. I think this is due to having nametags turned off.

If it were just Behemoth or Odin, I could deal with it. It is ALL Fates unless I am already at the spot well before everyone else. I can't get past lvl 42 because I am stuck having to sync to Fates 10 levels lower than me because I can camp the Fate without worrying about dying.

I have every setting known to man turned off and it still doesn't help. It pisses me off to play the game and then go watch my brother play on PC. He doesn't have ANY of these issues.
