Translations (JP to English)

[Starlord]

If he takes all those drips and make it into a big water balloon... it's still not flood lol (good info but info we already know too) I hope he'll cater both existing players and non-existing. All the old info + enough new info that will make everyone take their clothes off, wear a subligar and do the subligar dance.

8 Alpha Videos, 4ish Trailers, 70+ Screenshots ( Pictures speak louder than words), alot of interviews. Meh ranges from person to person, what a flood feels like. Personally, When beta comes around ( at least for the people that get in Legacy). Those people will be the ones that get the "True Flood".

i'm a bit confused about this.

If you weren't confused it wouldn't be SE!

And ... a flood to me is thee words "Beta is up!"

The way I read it is they are going to release a package, probably on Beta, probably tomorrow since they are in LA and still not a peep. I agree that they have to release something major to make a "World Tour" worthwhile.

BTW I don't get SE's suspense mode. These big build-ups don't seem to help. People expect too much and are always disappointed.

Considering it's still Sunday night here, it's not surprising there hasn't been a "peep". Keep in mind he's doing media stuff, so these will happen on business days as usual for the people that are hosting them.

What I got from the post was information would be released simultaneously, ie..it won't be out in JP first, then we have to wait for it to be translated into English, German, French etc. We would all get the new information at the same time.

Beta wouldn't exactly be "suspenseful" news, since we already know what's coming. What's -IN- ARR is juicier, especially for those that won't have access to Beta right away. I'm betting this tour will cover some juicy tidbits from ARR content :3

There's nothing that we don't already know in the video, this was just something for those outside of the XIV community to see how different ARR was.

ahh I see lke i said i just came across it out of the blue. Seeing as how I don't speak japanese I don't know what exactly their saying except for bits and piece here and there so i can't put together a good concept of wth they're talking about ^_^

I believe you might be interested in this blog post, Rannie.- http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/blog/post/151
Not so much a translation, but an English explanation of the show by Pinurabi.

[Hulan]

I think it's much more likely, given the "simultanious release", that we won't see anything until the end, or near the end of the tour. So I wouldn't get your hopes up for at least a few more days (possibly as many as a full week).

こんにちは。

さて欧米メディアツアーが始まっております。
先日吉田Pがコメントしていたとおり、ツアーで紹介されるあれこれは
全世界同時にドバっと公開になる予定なので、そちらをお待ちいただきますが、
フォーラムをご覧頂いている皆さん向けに舞台裏などをご紹介したいと思います

…というわけで、現在スクエニのLAオフィスでツアーに向けた打ち合わせ中です。
が、ちょっと前の写真を1つご紹介。



飛行機に乗る前の成田での空港ラウンジでのヒトコマです。
ノートPCを広げたと思ったら何か音がするな……と思ったら、VPN経由で
開発サーバーに接続して、最新データをチェックしていましたよ。
（これ映像じゃなくて実機で確認しているのです）

今後も心と体に余裕がある限り、あれこれお伝えしてみたいと思います
心なしか開発ブログとかぶっている感じもしますが気にしない！

Not going to translate the whole thing, pretty sure this one going to get official translation.
Anyways the image is YoshiP checking new data's while he was at Narita Airport inside a lounge connecting through VPN.
Foxclon saying it's not a movie but actually checkign the game itself. They're going to post these type of background stuff for the forum people while they are on the tour

RemingtonSteele asked to bring back NPC collision in ARR.
Mocchi's posted a response to that one.

本件については、仰られているとおり、あたり判定によって雰囲気がでてくる面はあると思います。
一方で、プレイする上での快適さを考慮した場合には、あたり判定がないほうが良かったりもします。
このあたりのどちらを優先させるかは個々の好みに分かれるところでもありますが、
今回はプレイする上での快適さを優先し、あたり判定は無くすことにしました。
そして、NPCの魅力という点では、以下のような演出をしていくことで
より魅力的に映るよう努めていますので、そういった部分も含めてご期待いただければと思います。
Regarding this one like you said by adding collision detection it will give more live feeling.
However when looking for better playing environment it's better without collision. For will vary player to player but this time we have prioritized to bring more confortable playing environment therefore we decided not to put in the collision.
As for features to stand out the NPC's more we have mentioned previously (previous rep post talking about wandering NPC's, NPC with chat bubbles.) So please look forward to those.
