someone complain that graphics is downgrade... so....

That's pretty bad. I'm surprised you're not getting any issues.

LoL, my CPU is like 6 yrs old at least Muhahahaha

Problem is everything runs fine, and I can't really justify the upgrade. Maybe I'll get lucky, and my CPU will overheat, and I'll have to replace the CPU, MB, and RAM. I'll bet it would be hard to find a replacement CPU for system, based on how out of date it is.

I'd rather have better graphics than 200 people on my screen. Also would rather have better graphics than NPCs more realistically milling about.

I should re subscribe to DAoC, 200 people on screen at the same time is fun.

No one answered my question.

Are they downgrading the graphics in 2.0 ?

Got any links, so I can see what 2.0 is gonna look like?

If you have a High end computer, you will be seeing Just as good or higher. Certain area's will be downgraded to fit the limitations of the PS3, but it won't be that drastic as FFXIII Graphics were out of this world, and it worked fine, So I don;t see no reason for this to be any different.

I really don't mind if its a little more "cartoony" I just want the movement thing addressed. I like backing up like in the videos but only when locked on a target when you unlock "movement down key/or controller should allow my guy to turn and take off running.... AND it should look like it does now. I'm having a little bit of a hard time understanding adding jump purely for cosmetic reasons to take something so simple out that made it aesthetically pleasing.

Since people keep saying "omg PS3 will limit the game like PS2 limited FFXI!"

PS2's Limitation:

32 MB of Direct RAMBUS or RDRAM
4 MB eDRAM

64-bit "Emotion Engine" clocked at 294.912 MHz (launch), 299 MHz (newer models)

You're right, the PS3 will be just as limiting as this...c'mon now. While the PS3's graphics will be scaled back that doesn't mean it's limiting anything..it will take years before the PS3 even comes close to limiting the game and there's no guarantee XIV will even see that day lol.

XI wasn't limited by the PS2 until around ToAU when they started reaching the original design limitations, i.e zone cap, so honestly, people need to stop worrying about "(Console) Limitations" and be more concerned with the game itself lol.
