this game needs real-3d support for PS3 release

[Azurymber]

I just got the new ico/shadow of the colossus for ps3 and was playing it on my 65 inch 3d plasma and wow.... i mean.. it looks real. And this is a game from like years ago in the ps2 era...

FFXIV graphics are -amazing- and beautiful. They are probably the one thing the game actually excels at. And most new PS3 games that are good are released with real-3d support.

If FFXIV is released on the PS3 with real-3d capabilities the game would probably grab a lot of attention just for its amazing graphics. And playing a game that looks realistic in 3d just makes it a much better experience.

From what I hear its not overly difficult to implement and wouldn't take like a year or anything. And it would really set the game apart from other MMOs.

So at little cost, and little time investment, it would be a great addition to the game. Especially if they release the game in the next 6-8 months since -many- people will be getting 3d tv's at christmas.

I thought the 3D was well-implemented from what I have read.

I think this should be on the bottom of the priority list. They don't even have an optimized engine and the code is probably a big giant bowl of spaghetti by this point. Bells and whistles come after the game works. Graphics are cool and all, but I'd sacrifice any amount of graphics for gameplay any day.

This right here they should make the engine more optimized and work on gameplay.

All it really requires is setting up two cameras a certain length apart.
Not exactly a monumental task.

But yes, basic gameplay before bells and whistles.

It has good 3d support for pc, as a matter of fact the other day I saw a 3d tv with xiv demo running on it.

Brag much?

Would love to see the Ifrit fight through a 3D T.V, that'd be one of the most epic things evaaaaaaaaaaa!

id prefer the update to Direct X 11 first then
use the shaders and crap to make things look less
'new' and more shadows and better drawing distance before putting in 3D.

im pretty sure its not set up for 3d yet since there are no 3d options. But if you have a nvdia card? or a tv that can turn anything 3d you can play it in 3d. Its just not optimized.

And the graphics ppl would do the 3d not the programmers wouldn't they? So it would have no effect on fixing the game.

I personally hate playing games in 3D. I find it incredibly distracting, but whatever floats your boat. I just want the PS3 game to release 3D or not.
