PS3 users can NOT use " focus target " at all ...

I you are adding the Vita/PS4 screen share and remote play and all that features for the PS4 version, how about adding support for multiple screens on PC? Like being able to move elements of the UI to a secondary monitor and stuff like that?

Wow, this thread is full of either denial or people who fail at reading comprehension

And it is equally full of people who have unrealistic expectations and/or unjustified anger. From the beginning this game was announced for PS3 and PC. Everyone knew this going in. If anyone honestly believed that the developers would allow one set of gamers to have advantages over others due to their platform, then they were seriously mistaken. Your game isn't being "ruined" and this "outrage" is beyond ridiculous.

People who think this game overall is in any way being 'limited' by the PS3 version have clearly never played FFXI.

It was my understanding that if you turn off the keyboard's direct chat option that the shift + f command will now work. Does this not function on ps3?

It's really fantastic to get some official feedback based on this. I appreciate your sharing it with us.

You can use that to do keyboard shortcuts to certain things, but focustarget still doesn't work. The macro command also doesn't work. It makes it really tough for healers at endgame.

Yet again PS3 limitations ruining the game... thanks.

Those limitations are ONLY on the PS3 though. Did you stop reading? Because after that, there's this:

UI-wise, we are using the Windows version as a base for the PS4 version, so the features, including focus target, cross hotbar, vertical/horizontal hotbar display, and multiple chat log window display will be the same for both Windows and PS4 versions."

Why do you even need the "focus target"? Seriously! I play on the PS3, am a lvl 50 CNJ, and I have not a single issue not being able to use the "focus target". It is beyond simple to select the target of focus, BEYOND SIMPLE! This is just silly!

To watch enemy HP and cast bars when switching off to adds. It's kind of a big deal to players who are playing seriously and need to do things like interrupt party-wiping abilities. I even found it useful on content as early as the last boss in WP when everyone was low-geared. But it's only natural for the average player, with next to no raid responsibility, to see it as nothing more than a secondary HP meter.

So are we referring to what you do by picking a target and pressing X? If so than it's working fine if not idk what ya'll are going on about

Never needed to use the auto focus while in combat and I'm on ps3. I have no trouble knowing what target the tank is on I pay attention to the screen and see which one he is currently tanking. Also another good solution is to get the tank to use the mark function and say which target is first, second, third etc to attack.
