Weren't they discussing how to play it on consoles at Fanfest? So they just gave up on controller commands and made a keyboard mandatory.

Genderlocked gear is disappointing.

No, they weren't discussing consoles at all. They just said "don't you all have keyboards" when controllers were brought up at Fanfest.

It's an interesting thing every time I see consoles and typing brought up with this game. Maybe I'm just old and have been playing MMOs on consoles since FFXI back in 2003, but consoles have been capable of keyboard usage since the PS2 and if you wanted to communicate in-game with text in a place like a MMO, it was expected that you would get a keyboard. This was back when they were about 30 to 50 USD and weren't sold at something like a convenience store or corner store. Last I checked a month ago, they were 10 USD at Walmart and CVS. The local stores will be different for each individual, but the point is it's more affordable and readily available.

Looks like a decent arrangement of rewards. Curious to see what comes out of that coffer too.

Oh mannn~

Wish there was a solo mode. I cannot type for tat. ;_;

All Konsoles have virtual keyboard and we have the autotranlate function and macros. Why'd spent money on an unneeded, space consuming peripheral. Especially for a game that otherwise has excellent support across all input methods till someone decided to make a big expansion feature (it was announced as a big Gold Saucer update after all) dependent upon one type of peripheral.

Is it actually better these days? I spent some time on PS3 in ARR and remember getting into an argument with someone and boy was it a slow conversation with the onscreen keyboard...

I havn't done console in years but it was my biggest complaint on a purely console play back in the day.

When you buy a game on consoles you are promised you only need a controller to play the game, unless it's a VR game. My main problem with them requiring a keyboard for the event is that console players was promised you can do all content in the game with a controller, no keyboard needed. Now they are saying you cant do that, need a keyboard for certain content now. They are going back on full controller support for the game.

I just hope the mgc rewards that you get aren't low and that you get a respectable amount, so it doesn't take so long to get all the items. But it is until the release of evercold. So have till, at least sometime In january
