New Blog post "Interview with Director/Producer"

360 usb pad is the way



I wonder if Yoshi is finally thinking to delay the launch to implement such a common thing like PvP.

This is another proof of what i said in my old topic (the one about real game direction).

For journalists and casual/new players the PVP it's a MUST!
And releasing a game without it, will have a terrible impact on the game release.
I can already imagine the waterfall of negative comment from both sites reviews and players,
like: where is the PvP ? SE din't learn from it's past errors, they released again an incomplete game etc. etc.

And if you want my personal opinion, the success of an MMO (commercial speaking) it's decreted by it's launch.

Release a complete of all features game = Success!
Release an incomplete game, with promises like: Oh in the very first patch it will have PvP = FAIL!

If the PvP it's really scheduled for the 1° major patch, just like housing, why don't delay the game of 1-2 month?

Again sorry for my english, i hope you'll understand what i mean

I hope they don't delay the game just because pvp isn't ready. pvp in my opinion is not a must for it to succeed.
Maybe instead of delaying the game 1-2 months like you suggest, they should take the people working on pvp off that and put them working on other things to make the game come out 1-2 months earlier

I was wondering about that. "1280x720 MAXIMUM"... I really hope that does not mean 1280x720 is the maximum resolution for ARR.




I've been using a Logitech F710 for about 2 years now. You do need to make sure there are no obstructions between the controller and the dongle that might block the signal, but otherwise very happy with it.

Logitech did announce they are going to stop producing many of their accessories (gamepads included): http://www.gameranx.com/updates/id/1...e-accessories/

I went out to buy another F710 to keep in case mine ever breaks, because I like it so much.

Yeah I been using the Logitech F710 since September 2011. I found it to work great. I put the usb dongle on the extension usb that comes with it under my pc monitor. It works great then. As for getting another controller ;x I contacted Logitech I think around spring last year, and told them my one button started to stick and become unusable. The sent me a brand new controller that I will keep in box till this one fully poops out on me. I just had to open the controller and fix the rubber pad. But all in all I would recommend this controller to anyone that want a wireless controller.

A 1280x720 maximum would likely be fore the PS3. PC should be able to go as high as the system can support.

[DoomCky]

Side note the whole 1280X720 maximum might mean the max rez on the computer. Or like V1 bench mark had 2 settings high 1080p and low 720p.so could mean they just for that pic have it set on low to get high score to just show off big numbers

[Pseudopsia]

MAXIMUM may be referring to maximum graphics settings.

If this benchmark was done right it should have different levels of quality settings, such as Minimum, Standard, and Maximum graphic settings.

I'm starting to wonder if the people who are say "PvP isn't important" hang out with any other MMO players besides FFMMO players... >.>

I've gotten to meet some great MMO players who lead large groups in GW2, and other games. PvP is a HUGE deal for them. They've never played FFXI or FFXIV, but they've all (well both... I only know two of them IRL) told me "No PvP, No deal" when I invited them to beta.

I hope when I e-mail them the news about FFXIV PvP when its released they'll at least LOOK at it?! \o.O/

As long as PVP does not mess with the PVE world i'm fine. I enjoy a random PVP here and there but i dislike it being the main focus.

players who think "this game can't live without pvp" aren't needed here


Edited: i welcome pvp but not to the point where pve suffers tremendously because of gear or abilities being nerfed for being "op"

it should be like how pvp was added in XI

"this game can't live without pvp" players should stay the hell away

Yeah... well, judging by the blog post hopefully the American non-FF audience got their point across.

Don't get me wrong, I love PvE and it's my favorite thing to do in a game. Having great PvE battles is essential. But I also play PvP a lot... It's a great form of content and I can see why some people like it and even devote themselves to it. The numbers of people who enjoy PvP more than PvE are pretty large and there is no reason to ignore this audience. Just none.

I would love to play PvP with my PvP loving friends IRL.
