Oo. Mine still runs 4.0 better. By at least 5k or so or more. And I really wonder if it uses the same scoring the newer benchmarks use.

I did all three of the city states when I got it... oddly I can't remember if I beta'd it or not... hmm. Anyway all three of them were cool. I think the boat one was the most memorable. Grindania's was fun. And... Ul'dah... well ... XD

I did miss them as well. Though I accepted that things couldn't be the same with ARR.

Ul'dah is basically the canon storyline as far as 2.0 is concerned. There's no trace of V1.0 in Gridania or Limsa Lominsa's storyline.

(I have screenshots from V1.0 beta and V2.0 beta where I tried all three starting points)

Other than the Moogle in V2.0's Gridania opening, V2.0's openings were all the same "why am I on this cart?" quiz.

In V1.0 however Limsa Lomina's opening is essentially identical to the V1.0 benchmark. Gridania probably has the funniest one however.

You do make a point with that and Ul'dah. The other two aren't really reflected in the ARR storylines aside from which location the Scions are. Gridania was the most fun. They were my favorite pair.

And ARR's was so sad... not in the ; ; way. Just... not as Oooh, and Ah as the previous ones were. *Shakes fist* I could be a Gladiator in Limsa, A Thurmatage in Gridania! (Kinda felt more adventure-y that way.)

4.0 ran way better than the 1.0 benchmark for me XD Also forgot how much 1.0 felt like it was missing some "effect" refinements on my hardware XD (well my current rig is a bit stronger then when I played 1.0 but overall 4.0 runs and looks way better on my setup :P FF 14 1.0 really needed a beast of a rig to run >.>)

For me 4.0 my score was higher. You also need to remember the benchmark is shorter. Also the 1.0 benchmark doesn't put as many mobs and bunch of effects on at the same time.

The scores on the 1.0 benchmark are different that the 4.0 ones.

they were those:
[8000 and over] Extremely High Performance
Easily capable of running the game on the highest settings.

[5500–7999] Very High Performance
Easily capable of running the game. Should perform exceptionally well, even at higher resolutions.

[4500-5499] High Performance
Easily capable of running the game. Should perform well, even at higher resolutions.

[3000-4499] Fairly High Performance
Capable of running the game on default settings. Consider switching to a higher resolution depending on performance.

[2500-2999] Standard Performance
Capable of running the game on default settings.

[2000-2499] Slightly Low Performance
Capable of running the game, but may experience some slowdown. Adjust settings to improve performance.

[1500-1999] Low Performance
Capable of running the game, but will experience considerable slowdown. Adjusting settings is unlikely to improve performance.

[Under 1500] Insufficient Performance
Does not meet specifications for running the game.

Is there a way to run it in full screen and without vsync?
