New Screenshots from E3

[BenjiTulia]

I watched Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo conferences... and of all things from E3 the most amazing thing is... FFXIV 2.0!. Absolutely stunned!

Maybe chocobos look a bit ummm... too skinny and sporty, would rather like to see them more like in FFXIII-2, soft and fluffy, like they could replace my pillow.!

Anyway great work SE!

I literally cannot believe how good these graphics are for an MMO. Jaw is on the floor. PUMPED!

Now I'm really hoping they give us a one-time mulligan and let us change our creation options.



Not many other was to do a glowing moon wolf that has always been a glowing moon wolf. Even in FFVI, it was just a wolf standing on a moon.

IIRC they mentioned that character models for 2.0 will be different with the new engine, so existing players will be able to recreate their characters again at start =)

This is going to blow every other MMO in existence out of the universe.

I AM SO FREAKING PUMPED!

You guys notice they got rid of the FFXII Icons from the old 2.0 screen shot Also the pic with the pld fighting the iron giants you notice that wolf looking icon on the bottom left near the hp bars.

The texture size is smaller but they improve overall look and feel by implement real time shadowing like other modern games do ( just IMO )

But..the result is so AMAZING! thank you SE and everyone in FFXIV team! I love you guys /kiss/kiss

I think it's fair to assume those are the actual textures. The new engine had to sacrifice something. You can't have spectacular everything, even on the most optimized engine in the world. Even the Cryengine has some real-time lighting issues. Not to mention, MMOs have a rougher time since they can't benefit from batching as much as other games (every dynamic object gets draw separately). The real-time lighting looks superb and the textures are par or slightly above par. If I was to complain about anything, the models are lower poly than the 1.0 models and the anti-aliasing looks lower.

Honestly, I don't think we can expect much better than those screenshots, and I personally thing that's fine. Things look pretty damn beautiful for an MMO already.

It looks good, but lately i have played Tera, and tecnically is far much better than those screenshots, but i'm still looking forward it! , im sure that the final PC versione will be much better

And ofcourse i need to judge a gameplay video
