Question about 30 frames/second

[Darkshade]

That's comforting to know, but now that raises the question of whether or not palyers will be able to play 45-60fps w/o hassle after server fixes are done. Also, will PS3 release (when its time comes) be 60fps or capped at 30fps just so that the console can run it?

Don't quote me on this but I have a feeling that the console version of XIV will probably run at 30FPS at 1280x720 with either 2xMLAA or no FSAA. That's just my gut feeling. Who knows, the game engine might actually run better/be more optimized for the PS3 though.

This happens quite often. Since Crystal Tools was optimized for the PS3 to begin with, it has a better chance of running the game on decent specs and still have the ability to maintain a good framerate compared to the PC. This goes along with a lot of other games that were ported over to the PC from consoles; they seem to have a higher system requirement. Again, this is also an issue that still somewhat plagues XI.
