    I'm coming over from pc to play on ps4. Quieter and my office don't heat up as much lol. I would greatly love a way to transfer pc settings and macros over to ps4. Sadly this is a PSN/PS3 only thing.

    About halfway there. 120 FPS is still > 60 FPS.

    But seriously, I'm glad it's out on PS4. My beastly PC still beats the hell out of the PS4, but as someone who has to use a PS3 during the week since I can't lug my PC around between my house and my apartment, I know just how bad the disparity between even a crappy PC and a PS3 is in comparison. The PS4 being pretty much a mid-range PC is more than enough to enjoy FFXIV the way it's supposed to be enjoyed.

    Saying that they have DX11 while we still stuck with old version. Until then it pushes us down abit.

    Actually, the PS4 is equivalent to a high-end PC on max settings when playing this game.

    Proof: http://www.dualshockers.com/2014/02/...entical-twins/

    I don't think today's mid-end PCs can run the game on max settings.

    High-end would be something with a GTX 780/780 Ti/Titan.

    Ultra high-end would be any of those in SLI.

    The PS4 isn't even equivalent to a PC with a GTX 670 or GTX 760, which is considered mid-range. Yes, today's mid-range PC's can run the game on max settings AND get higher than 60 FPS (talking 80-100 FPS in CT).

    So I'm actually being fairly generous in calling it a mid-range PC.

    High-end PC players are playing this game at 120 FPS and/or 2560x1440 (in some cases 5760x1080); myself included. That's far better than the PS4's 60 FPS at 1920x1080.

    PS4 players are in the mid-range crowd, which isn't a bad thing at all, but let's not pretend it's high-end compared to a PC.

    As long as you don't pretend a "high end" PC can be built for $500.

    Apparently we have different views on what constitutes a mid, high, and ultra high end PC so let me clarify my point: the PS4 version of this game graphically looks equivalent to the PC version on max settings.

    Also I should point out that it's a mistake to make console & PC comparisons primarily through their hardware. The PS4 doesn't need to run Windows 8 and the dozens of other processes along with it which allows more of its hardware resources to be utilized for gaming. This is why a console will always outperform a PC with specs equivalent to that console. But don't take my word for it...

    http://www.dualshockers.com/2014/02/...o-heat-issues/
    Yoshida-san explained that the PS4 version of the game runs faster by far than the PC version played on a computer with specs similar to the console, since the PS4 is much better optimized and doesn’t have the disadvantage of using slightly different architecture and shaders depending on the brand and model of the video card. That’s the advantage consoles have over PCs.
    Regardless, you do have a nice gaming PC. No doubt you've invested a great deal of money into it. If the game looks much better on your PC as you claim then I'm interested in seeing some screenshots that can be directly compared to the PS4 screenies I posted in my previous post. If you take the time to snap one in the same place, angle, time in day/night cycle, and weather conditions as any one of those screenshots, then I'll compare them impartially as any reasonable person would. Also don't use 3rd party software tools like SweetFX to modify the frames; that way the differences between the shots can be based from the hardware only. Without evidence showing otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to stick to my original point that my $400 machine delivers a visual experience that is very comparable to your multi-thousand dollar gaming rig.

    Lets be real here how many people can afford to drop $700~$1,000 on a graphics card? And your not getting much of a PC for $700~$800. A decent mid range PC is $1,200 give or take and that's building it yourself
