Rain (Suggestion)

[DragonFlyy]

I know they mentioned possibly dropping PS3 support, but that was back when 3.0 released (or around there). My guess is they would first see how many still play on PS3 then make a decision on if they want to alienate players still using the PS3.

Speaking as a fisher, I'd be fine with a greater element of randomness added to the weather. Weather changes every eight hours on the dot - so silly!

Yeah it does, to rain if I'm in the area.... *grumble*

No we don't.

If Square Enix still supports PS3 in 4.0, they are ruining their own game.

It's holding XIV back from so many features.

[Niwashi]

There is no official word on discontinuing PS3. The closest we have is that they mentioned years ago that 4.0 was the earliest they would possibly consider doing so.

It was when they were still in the early planning stages of working on 3.0 and well before it released. And their actual statement amounted to simply stating that they could only discuss as far as 3.0 and couldn't yet make any promises about what would or wouldn't be supported thereafter because they didn't yet know. (It was really just a statement that they couldn't tell people what hadn't yet been planned and since they weren't yet planning a 4.0 expansion they couldn't answer any questions about it.)

The players who tried to spin their refusal to discuss what didn't exist into sounding like they were going to drop support were being pretty ridiculous. It could just as well have been spun to suggest the game as a whole would stop being supported on any platform, since they didn't make any promises about that either.

For 4.0 we know ps3 won't be supported. Please add rain the locations that don't have it like Western La Noscea and Dravania Forelands.

Thank you, besides the rain issues I love your weather and time of day system. No other mmo compares

I'd like the rain and 'wet' effects to be improved. Characters really don't look wet in the rain, though their clothes do.It's funny, the sheen on character skin in the rain looks about like I think it should look when 'dry', it needs to be more markedly wet when immersed or in the rain.
