Eight Fixes to Make These Changes Good.

[Vanguard319]

Except you're trying to apply specific, real-world mechanics in a fantasy world which, by definition of "Fantasy", explores a world based on unrealistic and impossible situations.

The fact that you're attempting to draw parallels between the real world and the fantasy world on such a specific scale and then saying that "fantasy is doing it wrong" is completely laughable.

All I'm gonna say to you

I will only answer with these:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteorite_impact (pay attention child, to where it says "sizes and frequencies")

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicxulub_Crater

as for chocobos:

Damn, I'm good at making you people look dumb.

ok in a way i'm kinda glad you brought this up, after all, i know a little about this. so 65 million years ago a meteor that hit the earth killed the dinosaurs? wrong! the dust from the impact was thrown into the atmosphere which killed all the dinosaurs. first trees and plants were starved of sunlight for 6 - 10 months and they died, this led to all the big Herbivores dying. to begin with all the big Carnivores thought this was christmas. their pray dying at there feet no chase no challenge. but this was just one final present a last supper if you like. becase the dead plant eaters would not last long. and the meat eaters would be out of food and also die.

sad story. true story. this is the real effects of a world killing impact. like the one that is going to hit our world (hmm in game i mean :P)

anyhoo the affects of the rock to hitting our world is not going to throw up dust for a year the trees and plants wll not die. all the animals monsters and human form players will still live. the look of the world will change. but this is not real effects that you could expect if a real event changing impact was to take place.

so i ask again. !what has this got to do with real time physics?"

if i'm finished educating you child. then i'm done here.

Wow, people are seriously complaining about ranged AA for Archer?

This vanguard person makes me want to jump off a cliff.. and please tell me to do so vanguard and educate me... because thats what I'm expecting you to say.... soon I can jump off of a 100 ft cliff in game and not die :O physics derp derp..

that would be a good excuse, EXCEPT no one knows how big the meteor will be. You're already saying it will be a mass-extinction event without any proof of such, as mentioned in the urls I provided (which you clearly didn't read) even a small meteorite can have more energy than an atomic bomb, so the coming cataclysm does not have to be caused by a "planet killer" asteroid.

I'm smarter than you, umad?

for a meteor to alter the entire worlds landscape, it would have to be frickin huge are you stupid?

I'm not going anywhere, you wanna jump, that's your choice

Where did they say it was a meteor hitting Eorzea? I thought they said it was going to be volcanic.

"I'm smarter than you?" how old are you 5?

[grandm]

it is going to be an event that changes the look of the planet. zones totally redesigned. if it was real world it would be mass extinction. but because it is in game, not real, fantasy, made up. it is not governed buy the same laws of physics

and to think they will go to all this trouble, the story the lore the assumed CGI. for a tiny rock is just silly. if your going to this trouble make it flashy
