Yes, just insert the disc once and you can remove it while the patch downloads.

Yep. As soon as the download starts you can remove the disc.

Yay! Thank you =)

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Are there any reasons why I shouldn't have it on high?

yes - framepacing in the high res pro mode is utterly busted atm.

I managed to ignore the framepacing issues in bloodborne but the ones in this were way too noticeable for me to use that mode.

however, the lite mode runs at a full 1080p (as opposed to dynamic res on OG ps4/xb1) so you're still getting an improvement.

Yeah, I saw the spacesuit one, lol

And there is a business suit for Noctis that comes with the deluxe edition.

I forgot about the suit! What about the behemoth leather jacket outfit? What was the deal with that?

 

[Yu Narukami]

I was downloading patch 1.02, it reset and changed from 8GB to 5GB?

No clue. I've only seen a couple. I wish they would've added some real armor into the game, not just clothes.

I'm almost 10 in and I'm loving it.

Quick question: does anybody know if the Justice Monster Five mini game has an end? Been playing for several waves and nothing happens.

 

[notaskwid]

This happens some time on my ps4 too, it happens when there are more than 1 patch I think.

You downloaded 3gb already?

 

[Undead Fantasy]

They also added more cutscenes with 1.02, or so they say.

:S

That would actually be a deal breaker. Can anyone confirm?

 

[dragonzdogma]

GOT an early copy!
oh wait what!?

 

[PIMPBYBLUD]

Can't wait for tomorrow!

 

[Valonquar]

I've seen 2 other outfits including one obtained from a dungeon.

There's a formal outfit from buying Kingsglaive, and other DLC ones too I believe. Most of those require entering a PSN code on or after the 29th though.

 

[Kagari]

I'm streaming the full game, if anyone cares. Embargo drop means streaming is a go: twitch.tv/nova_crystallis

 

[Lyonaz]

I see the latest patch changed the combat report grading, now it's graded on Time, Finesse and Offense, instead of Defense, Stealth and Offense.

As a long time Final Fantasy fan I'm enjoying the game and taking my sweet ass time exploring and doing sidequests. 20 hours in, still in Chapter 3 and level 33.

I even got the deluxe edition coming in tomorrow, I regret nothing.

 

[Yu Narukami]

I have the game since Friday.

Fuuuuuuuuu...ok then. No leather jacket it seems. Lol

Holy shit, its an actual jacket. 0.o, I thought he meant ingame.

Before I click -
how far are you into the game and are you any good at action games?

 

[Yu Narukami]

Wondering if I should start a new game if they added cutscenes. I'm in Chapter 2 and 10 hours playtime.

 

[Simo]

I thought it was in the game part of a cross promotion given both the jacket and watch...

I've never gotten into FF but reading/watching the coverage of this has me deeply intrigued.

Would you recommend this game to somebody who has never played a Final Fantasy game before? (Well I played parts of 7 as a kid but never owned it)

How does it compare to other open world games this gen?

It's pretty fun, especially if you play XV since it's
intended for people who have never played a FF before.

 

[Jeels]

Any word on the Platinum trophy? Is anything missable?

I've almost got it, and nah seems there's no missables. You have to beat one boss on normal though

 

[XaosWolf]

Mine is here. Downloading patch.
Excitement tempered by black background and off-centredness of alternative cover.

Early. Duscae area. I'm all right I guess.

Well that may have sealed it for me.

The only way to get the ingame jacket is by buying the irl jacket :/

Wat? There is an ingame version that can only be had by spending almost $500?

 

[Sakura]

So I am a little confused after watching Kingsglaive and then playing the game for a few hours...
(spoilers for kingsglaive I guess?)

Spoiler

I thought after the King loses his ring, every body loses their ability to use magic? At least that is how it seemed in the movie. So how are Noctis and friends using magic?

Sorry if it's something obvious I'm missing.

 

[princemarth23]

I got my Pro last week and my KS8000 was just delivered today. I'm ready for tomorrow.

 

[Frillen]

Any tips where to distribute AP early on?

 

[Mcdohl]

Since other thread died, re-posting my post:

I love the field music. Too bad you can't hear it while driving or through a radio station

 

[TheChewyWaffles]

I'm scared to start this after watching the Conan segment...

 

[Raxious]

so I've basically found a decent way to farm EXP already. those

Spoiler

dropships appear like every 30 seconds after defeating the group it spawns, nets 500 - 700 exp every time.

 

[Courage]

Is there any recent Xbox footage? Hard to find in the midst of all the videos post-embargo.

I actually think

Spoiler

they lose their power because of his death. So, in that case Noctis should be able, being the next Lucian king and all, to produce this new power in at least some small form

.

Edit: Also, additionally,

Spoiler

the loss of the crystal could account for Noctis' insignificant yet existing ability to provide the Lucian power to his friends only.

Noctis is royal blood and all other magic is crafted and keep in magic flasks.

snake demon monster that was

When does the pre-load unlock for the UK?

 

[AdanVC]

Sorry to hear about that but it'll be there when you can get to it

Thank you!! :') Game is going to be amazing. I'm listening to some tracks of it now and I'm getting goosebumps over how good it sounds!
