Graphical Engine Improvements.

[Sanlord]

Yoshi-P told recently this graphical engine isn't enough and he dislike it at all, cause it have a low limit for some aspects of this game.

so... can we have some more graphical engine improvements before 2.0? or is it impossible?

At least we need a graphical engine improvement before they start billing, I have a low performance PC and I constantly see everyone who have a high performance PC getting issues with instanced areas like ifrit fight and everywhere too ;p

They need to do something to improve the game server.

what are your thoughs? I have exactly the PC they asked me for as minimum requeriment.

From what i understood it wasnt about grahical looks, more about the
amount of visual elements such as characters etc on the same screen wich wasnt enough.

I still cant wait for some actual gameplay videos of the new engine etc.
That might get me 100% sold on the game rather than just a fancy looking concept image of the new UI.

Graphics wise?

I dont think so, not many mmo's out there looks this good.

Maybe engine / server functionality.

I'm talking about the ability of this engine render all chars at once, you should research more about how bad is the graphical engine we have now...

Crystal tools isn't good for MMO. It's planned for Offline games.

Correct me if i'm wrong.

You are correct, and I believe this is part of what Noomy was saying.

According to Yoshi-P, Crystal Tools has a hard cap of 40 characters on screen at once. This makes large scale PvP impossible, and shows up currently in town and the wards. It also isn't very flexible. You can't turn down the settings to make it run on low-end hardware very well. The new engine is supposed to address both of these issues, according to questions answer in the Live Letters and many interviews after the 2.0 announcement.

Um...did ya'll somehow overlook that they were making a new engine?

The game already looks good enough to pass as a big "next gen mmmorpg", aslong as it would run on my PS3 w/o cause it melt down and blame it on "Limitations" (we all know what I'm referring to) v.v*
