dev1037 New Battle Effects

[Renshi]

Heya!

"uuuh they have shown only one thing, so they only worked on that thing! Pathetic!"
F*CKING NO! That's not what it means!
If you don't remember what the 1.17 and 1.17a are about, I'd suggest to check out!

I quote for truth that the enlargement of magic effects is not satisfactory for the fixing of skills animations, but I'm sure they are working on that right now, and as a hotfix they are going to amplify some magics. I can understand that; you can't release new animation effects in so little time.

See ya!

*sigh* If only some would understand this. Changing the visuals will take a lot longer than making the effects 2x bigger. The quick "fix" helps the current underwhelming visuals a bit.

Having a friend that regularly makes particle effects in Afterburn and other programs without a server farm I can tell you no they don't take that long.

Then people would complain and say "Why is SE spending time on visuals when the gameplay sucks! SE you fail all hope is gone off to GW2!" Making the effects bigger is a lot faster than redoing all the spells right now(since it's not a main priority). When we get better magic visuals better WS animations may also come with it. They would also have to come up with different varieties of how spells could look before they just slap something together(unless they just copy/paste from other FF games).

Seriously, only a size increase? Majority of the spells' effect are so lame that mere size increase will not fix the problem.

I sure hope that this is just a temporary solution, and that they are going to upgrade the effects in the near future.
