That is such a shame...it had so much potential.
I'm guessing that they're gearing it for a console release since there's basically no MMOs in that realm and a larger potential playerbase.

Lawl, that video is ridiculous.
Nah, show me a game that NEVER uses twice or more the same tree, the same rock, the same bush or the same texture. Do it. Eh?Quote:
Go on, show me a game with worse copy pasta terrain. Do it.
Is Rage even released :) But talking about Bethesda games, Fallout 3 have over and over the same undergrounds, the same metro entrances, the same buildings... if you so want the whole entire thing altogether.
Talking about copy-pasted terrain is crap argument.
I would tell you, it is amazing!
I never got that whole copy-paste thing.
I've seen the area, and it's pretty much the only area like that.
Not saying it's not lazy, but, it's pretty much extreme nit-picking.
As for the Fatigue?
I've spent a week levelling Armourer, I'm one of the highest in the game currently.
Not hit any fatigue.
The game does have a few issues however.
The wards are probably the biggest one, second would probably be how maddening crafting is at times.
Could the game have done with more time in development?
Yeah, of course.
The game is VERY unoptimized.
They could have delayed the PC version like the PS3 version.
I disagree a bit on that (release part), since beta ended, the optimization has already improved.
My friend can play pretty well with his dual core and 4850 atm, there are drops ofc.
But it seems to be better then in beta.
I have one six core and one 5770, will go to two 5770's sometime this week... but it already runs fairly decent on one.
There are some issues, but I'm sure that most of it will be fixed, and I'm also sure that the game will grow quite a bit.
Right.. if the game was getting more optimized id still be playing..
Clearly that's not the case.
I have worse FPS in retail then beta.. hench I quit.
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2.8Ghz
2x HD 5770 1 GB Xtreme Edition
8 GB Ram
Win7 x64
and not to forget the random stupid black screens at login after the last patch.
had to reboot to play the game, and im not alone getting those :P
meh.. shitty console port.
For me it was boring, especially because I crashed a lot, or models didn't load...
Viiral, I have about the same pc as you, I only have a 1090t ( a little faster) 1 normal 5770 1GB, 8GB ram and the same OS, yet, after ob, I got more FPS.
I had that black screen issue in beta, I fixed it by messing with resolutions.
(making desktop lower, game higher.. game windowed and full screen switching, and making it normal and as the same as desktop again.. ect)
Even IGN said that there are Optimazation improvements.
I was in the open beta for a few weeks before launch and can say that while the game still requires a lot of hardware muscle to get it to run semi-smoothly, it does seem to be running better now. In the IGN offices we use an ultra powerful machine, but at home I use an Alienware M11x-R2 laptop with an i7, and have noticed a significant framerate boost. It's still far from smooth and could be improved, but at least there's progress.
I have a worse computer than you do.
Aside from the operating system anyway.
I get a pretty good FPS, however, I do know where you're coming from.
I had a similar issue in APB, my computer was a beast compared to my two friends, yet for some reason, the game had a completely unplayable FPS.
It's a mixture of things which causes issues like this, and you are correct, it is most likely the game, however, I have to ask, did you take all steps you could towards fixing the issue?
I mean, it's not like these issues should be in release, and such things should have been picked up in Beta, but, if there's some way to fix it yourself, you should try it.
Hit or miss really.
:hmm:
who can answer? is beta over yet? i got key but never download it.
No. No and No.
Launch for S.E is in 2 days.
It is as ppl say I figure, I played beta for 2 days and the only thing I like...sorta was the story-line, other than that; meh.
The crafting-system is fail, having to go through to 10 menus to equip items or craft is again fail. It's horribly unoptimized as ppl said before. The fact the game consists out of like 25k folders with 170k files (??? forgot the exact amount but it's a lot) says plenty to me. Sloppy coding and programming.
I wouldnt buy it but wait till they actually get out of the beta-stage in say... 6 months or so, lol
All the hate.. yeah there are a few flaws, I think it's almost there.
Little bit work, and they can start on update content.
there huge flaws , but i cant speak to a huge fanboy that is .
the game was and programmed for the Cell processor on the ps3 thus , graphically the game isn't a huge point makers with the copy pasta terrain .
the big nice thing i loved was the animation the rest was terribad besides the story that is.
Not a fanboi yet, but my friend runs it well on his dual core.
I have a six core and also run it fairly decent.
There's just some lagg in town, but once out, and there not a large number of players on screen.. everything is smooth..
hehe, he failed so hard.. I wish I had chat logs...
Ooooh, I so wish I had.. then you would all see what a bastard he is..
But on topic.
FF14 is a good game, there's an interesting story. And a whole lot to do.
I recomand you to read some about it.
IGN is working on a review.. and it is interesting to read.

Thread went to lol overnight. If I give this game the time of day at all, it will be on my PS3. Combat system is just..ugh. SE should ditch the semi-turn based bullshit for real time combat like practically every other ****ing MMO known to man. If anything turns me off from this game before I purchase it though, it's gunna be the fanboys. I'd rather talk to a wall than play with ignorant ****tards.
decent review of a bit of pre-release but i don't think he quite got the crafting down yet, he said it was all chance but its actually based on your skill and the current stabilization of the craft, like if its white its normal, multi colored is increased progress/chance but if it fails it'll hurt more and the other colors separate mean its unstable and will fail a lot more often, same with sparks, if their comin out from multiple fails then your chances have decreased a lot more, its all about knowing what to hit and when really
so you want to be fed the same bullshit we've had over and over for years with just a name change, go figure
Sigh you little kids, both Viiral and Hyarume are right.
Its indeed a spin of a bottle problem. You might have the same specs but one might lag and the other doesnt. Thats the problem about FF14 it isnt optimized and thats why some people might experience lag with monster pc's.
Reminds me of the release of GTA4 for the pc. Everyone with a high end pc got 5fps and me with the crappy shitty computer had 40fps. They just ****ed it up.
oh ps. Its clueless if youre gonna take yourself as an example like you did here Hyarume, since everyone is not the same as you ;)
Now you can try and be an arrogant *** and try to think your right or you can just accept the fact that the game isnt done and worth the money for currently.
Just to make it clear, I understand that it runs poor on some people's computer, but I actually talked alot with viiral about it.. he kept saying it ran great even before he knew RadeonPro tool.
That is why I call him arrogant, and arrogance is just the one thing I cannot stand.
Sorry for the inconvenience I caused.
and Proxzor, it really is a bit better since beta, it actually is worth the money if you get a decent score in the benchmark I'd say.
But.. also you should know that viiral has about the same specs as I do, yet I don't even have crossfire yet, and it runs fine with one single 5770.
we've only said it needs more optimization work multiple times....its not even at official release for 2 more days, they can't fix every problem in a day like they did with the ppl who tried to hack already (ppl abusing hacks/glitch got wtfpwned in less than a day >.>)
How does not wanting to put up with a semi-turn based combat system translate into wanting the same shit that's been around for years? Just because it's different doesn't make it good.
Also, if it really needs that much work, push the title back for ffs. People are still going to buy this game, no need to flip them off when they do. You're just going to cause people to un-sub and return their game.
but just dont release something when its broken. You will let allot of people down. Just look what happend at release of GTA4 and APB.
Like I said, its a spin the bottle. It doesnt really matter how good your pc is. if youre unlucky youre ****ed. Now you can say hes arrogance or just believe him. Because since the patch he cant play properly anymore. And if you cant understand that maybe youre the arrogance one here not looking further then your own experiences.
Then again, whenever I said anything about FF that I didnt like it and such... al the fanbois would flame me. Just look at cingal when he says something about wow.
The game is bad, honestly there are rocks that look like other rocks, and brick buildings that look like other brick buildings. The people who play this and like it are just fan boys, no one in their right mind would enjoy this game. Look at WoW it had no problems, all it's content, and 11 million players right at the start. FFXIV should have been delayed 8 years and should have been release with everything, including 11 million players.
