Final Fantasy XII battle instead of the current one

[Perez]

Hey everyone. I've seen lots of threads about players who think that ffxii contents would work in ffxiv (mainly the hunt system).
One of the main thing that would work in the Final Fantasy XIV world is the ADB system (Final Fantasy XII battle system), I think the system would be great for FFXIV. Easy to use, auto-attack system, easy targeting, magic use, summoning, and (mainly) would work great both on PC and PS3.
I don't know if there are lots of fans of FFXII around here, but sincerly I think the ADB would work better in FFXIV than the current battle system

What do you prefer?

It definantly would. Especially the addition of the targeting lines, those would make it way easier to determine where what is and what it is attacking.. I was for a long time wishing they would upgrade FFXI's battle system to be more like FFXII back when I played it (In terms of attack speed and weapon ready/unready speed and the target lines), but... never happened.

[Kato3y]

No .

[Perez]

Yeah it would make things easier.
Party control also would be enhanced, I think. I miss the command window...

[fredtma]

definite yes, FFXII has one of the best battle system.
I was one hopping SE next mmo would be base around the FFXII world.

I don't understand what you are asking. Gambit system? windowed skills? lines for targetting?

I would love to see targetting lines, since when in a party, when switching between multiple mobs and crowd controlling without vent/typing in stuff, it would make things alot easier. Maybe only make targetting lines appear in parties/solo so that they aren't everywhere when you are simply just walking past other people? And only when abilities are used, they appear for a bit and then fade?

Maybe even make it so the targetting lines reach the enemy once your ability is ready to go? (melee classes attacks almost instant, mage casting takes a couple secs casting time.)

I really hope you're kidding.

FFXII had the most boring combat system out of all FFs. That's a pretty impressive failure.

Windowed skills and targeting lines, it would be nicer and easier to use.
Gambit system would be interesting to use with companions in some quests.

I'm sorry but I disagree... the ADB changes the perspective of RPG, Final Fantasy X battle system was starting to get tedious... always the same thing. Also... with games construction like FFXII and FFXIV its impossible to put ATB turned based battle system (like FFI to X) that would be a real bore... Random encounters, turn attacks... very monotonous...

FFXIV current battle system doesn't fit... it don't look like a Final Fantasy styled battle system... its strange, confusing and horrible if you want to swap targets :S

[Yazoo]

Targeting lines... Yes
Other... Not in MMO
