Yeah, he said that there's no plans for implementation because doing so would be too difficult. FF14 doesn't have the right specs for it, or something.Tumalu said:

That is interesting and really hard for me to believe.
Question, is this game higher spec than FFXIV?

I'm a bit skeptical of their reasoning as well, but to be fair, the video you linked to appears to only have to deal with one cape. In FF14, they'd have to be ready to handle the fluttering capes of all 100 people huddled around the BW aetheryte right after the refresh.Londa said:

This game doesn't use low res/low poly models for monsters or players/NPCs in the distance, right? That's why everything just pops into view, right?

Oh well, without an official translation i googled it but it seems it failed lol In any case, they have to upgrade engine in the future with dx10/11 (so they said time ago), so maybe we'll see capes in the (far) future.
edit: there is another post about capes today:

You just posted financial documents showing that you bit off more than you could chew. One thing at a time please.

You have a good point. One way they could go about having capes in the game is having capes like lighting's that only hang on one side and possibly much more shorter, so that there isn't a lot of flapping to be had. However I guess I just really wanted capes. Atleast earrings and jewelry show on your character. That is one like I really like about the game. Too bad there is only a limited amount of jewelry. One reason I think this is, is that the mines isn't open to adventurers.

MMO's take a lot of time to develop. Whatever this MMO is that they plan to announce, it was green lit well before FFXIV was even announced probably. The good thing is that this mysterious MMO is likely to release in much better condition then FFXIV did, no way Wada is going to let a disaster like that happen a second time in a row, especially if it ends up being a big franchise like Dragon Quest or something else of even remotely similar caliber.
Coldsnap said:
Nope, I am fictional representation hopeless hope!
. And my next hope is that 'if' that next MMO is squandered and has as big or worse failing as FFXIV... that Wada gets the boot out the door the next day. Yes... its hopeless hope . (He should have been out the door LONG ago even before the last couple years of horrible failings.)

They might as well start on DX12 since it'll probably be out by the time they even get around to doing anything about it

"We are aware that there are many many steps to get in to FF14 from the moment the player opens the box until they get in to actually playing the game. Many steps especially compared to some of the F2P MMOs out there. However, there are a lot of MMos that have a complex system to start...while we sympathize with the users, we also are happy to let you know that this grueling process only needs to done once, and one the hurdle has been clear, it's smooth sailing."
I was just looking over past developer interviews to try and see what they were trying to do this whole time. I'm still not so sure what the grand plan was...

Let's hope this helps to enhance the new stat balancing algorithms they put into place.

Are any of you guys fans of the SMT games?
I've been playing around a bit with Shin Megami Tensei Online: Imagine. It's the first game I've been able to force 64x CSAA SLI AA in and still lock the framerate at 60fps, because that's pretty much how old it is. It was first released in 2007 and has been operating continuously since then. It's a F2P MMOG, and the game client is only a 1.37GB download. There are no CGI cutscenes, and there is no voice acting of any kind. This is Atlus, not Squenix we're talking about here. So you can forget about technological razzle-dazzle, but you can look forward to the classic SMT-style post-apocalyptic cyberpunk pseudo-metaphysical morally-ambiguous storyline.
The game itself takes place between the events of the original Shin Megami Tensei (the 1992 Super Famicom game) and Shin Megami Tensei II (1994), and since it follows the original SMT storyline it has demon battling/conversing, summoning, and fusion like you'd expect from an SMT title. If you've played Persona 2: Innocent Sin/Eternal Punishment or Nocturne you pretty much know what's up. Having conversations with demons is as hilarious as I remember from those games, especially if you're in a hurry and just choose the options to piss them off as much as possible because you just want them to go away or fight you already.
Graphically it looks a lot like Nocturne or the Digital Devil Saga titles and seems to have similar PS2-level assets. Fortunately your Glorious Master Race PC can run it at higher resolution than a PS2 can, though hilariously it supports exactly 3 resolutions: 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x1024. Nvidia owners can force AA and SLI with a custom profile, it uses Gamebryo so using the Oblivion AA and SLI profiles works perfectly, as if you need SLI for this game. But having 64x AA is pretty awesome I guess. It actually looks pretty good all things considered, as the assets have the classic SMT art design including all the characters and demons and so forth.
If you guys want to try this out a bit and play with me, you can download it here:

It's a standard F2P game with an in-game mall where you buy items with real money. I'm not planning on spending a dime for however long I plan to mess around with this game.

Yea I played SMT online for a while I quit cause I couldn't find people to group up with for dungeons.
I'm playing Wakfu this week and its pretty awesome, really nice 2D graphics, you guys should come try it out on the EU server its open better over here, I think US is still closed.
Nice thread Renta, nice that you did it in Japanese as well, hopefully they will take note of it.
FWIW you don't need to press enter to confirm when healing someone.
How I heal:- Select Cure (say press 7) for example and then select members name in part list with left click will heal them directly.
I like the idea of the right click quick skill though would make healing much much easier.

The Lodestone page says onl few are down including Lindblum but when i google "ffxiv server status" the webpages liek Zam says they are all down!
But then why Lodestone says only few of them are down? Wth is going on?
I think i will give up FF XIV and start a new mmorpg. MY EVE account is still active, do u any of you play EVE? Or what else do you suggest?
