Forums - Sony - Square: FFXIV Online skipping 360 due to “closed” online environment

Could it also be something to do with piracy, i heard FF13 was hit very hard on the 360 because of piracy, and M$ cant seem to control the issue, which seems to be getting worst, from what i hear.


You can pirate the game itself. But it is impossible to generate the codes required to play the game I would think.

btw after I changed the AA to application controlled, I got about 4533, 2GB on video card ftw I guess, might as well leave it on. 1280x720 MAX EDAA was 5081 lol, and I'm doing all these while a 1280x720p video is being encoded at 30FPS in real time in the background at 2500kb/s streaming to a live broadcast server. So yeah, I don't think modern PCs needs to worry too much about running FF14. My CPU also never went to 100%, ever.

ps: I'm running dual monitor atm so it's showing 2 video cards, there is no crossfire of any kind.

here are the SS:

1080p Full Edge Detect AA-

1080p APP AA-

720p Full Edge Detect AA-


JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!  That's a monster of a system... two 5870s?  Why not crossfired?


i only have 1 lol, eyefinity 6, it's showing 2 because im running dual monitor atm.

I'd hate to know ho much it set them back ouch my wallet is running

You'd be surprised, the CPU is about 280, Motherboard about 130, the video card was about 465, and lets say you are running a 64bit win7, 4 GB of good quality memory, lets say G.Skill, would be about 100 bucks, a 650W PSU is maybe about 60-70 on discount easily, and HDD is cheap these days so you are looking at a little more than 1k, in the US anyways. This is only on one video card since I see little point running crossfire on P55 MB, it's only showing 2 because I have a dual monitor setup.



I just ran the benchmark for my laptop and it didnt have enough muscle to play this game, got a weak 977 points but hey, it is a laptop after all lol. I'll be getting this for my ps3 it seems.

I think I should post this here also. The difference between alpha and beta is shown in this video. To me, some of the alpha footage looks a bit better than the beta lol.

now I'm curious, gonna run it on my netbook, I always like to have MMO on the go when I play them and since I can tether, I can technically play anywhere I go.

beta is better by the long shot, better draw distance, better textures, and much better lighting, it's a no shit really. =P

I got a 5600 on the benchmark on my last test.



So to run this at 1080p at high AA and AF @ 60FPS(fraps locked) you'd need a score of about 3300 according to my capture, really not too bad.



oh well....I don't think many people will lose sleep over this

Actually alot of people do want to play this on 360.



I have a question... why does Microsoft care so much? what is it with them?

 

they are going to let theyre users be unable to enjoy this game for WHAT reason exactly? what's wrong with giving developers freedom.. the Xbox 360 is one big closed console and the last thing it needs right now is a bad name with 3rd party devs..



Currently playing: MAG, Heavy Rain, Infamous

 

Getting Plat trophies for: Heavy Rain, Infamous, RE5,  Burnout and GOW collection once I get it.
