So it might be that they've gone the other way and done something to prevent swapping gear 3000 times per fight.


Prolly a small cooldown like level sync. Enough to cure yourself from poison when your battle is done, but not fast enough to do it mid fight, otherwise the game is gonna be completely stupid.

BLM gonna idle with PLD gear on ?
Switch to RDM when casting enfeeble ?
Oh ***I need to pull with a pet, better be SMN.
Oh noes I just aggro'd ? Let's switch to BST and instant charm the mob :<

Allowing everyone to do be able to do everything = shitty game. I want tanks that know how to tank, and not someone who got the job solo, and use it once a month :< Same goes for healers, dd etc...

E3 2009 Q&A

On the afternoon of June 3rd 2009, one day after Final Fantasy XIV was announced at Sony's E3 conference, Square Enix had their conference. Among those in attendance were Hiromichi Tanaka, Nobuaki Komoto, and former FFXI localization team member Michael Christopher Koji Fox. The conference served as a Q&A for the newly announced game.

Q: What are the ties to Final Fantasy XI, if any?
A: While you may have noticed that some of the same type of races appeared in the trailer, the world of FFXIV is different from FFXI. The reason that we made the races similar to the FFXI races is so FFXI players could choose a similar type of race in the new game. For example, in movies, you might have an actor that plays many different roles. Please, think of it that way.
Q: What happens to Final Fantasy XI now that we're moving to FFXIV? Are you going to phase it out or continue to publish new content for XI? How will the development team be split?
A: The development for FFXIV started 4 or 5 years ago with primary ideas. Development started a few years ago, while FFXI was still being supported. FFXI will continue to be supported. There is another year of content planned. There are no plans for the near future to stop development on FFXI.
Q: What influence have games like World of WarCraft have on the development of FFXIV?
A: As with WoW, we want to aim a bit for the casual user. However, we don't want to make a copy of WoW. We believe we will have things that are unique and will stand out from that game.
Q: Will combat be more action oriented or turn-based?
A: We cannot talk about the battle system at this time.
Q: FFXI has evolved a lot over the years, especially in the areas of player accessibility and the ability to solo. Will you carry over features like level sync and other features to FFXIV?
A: Yes. All of the knowledge and experience we gained from FFXI will be used in the development of FFXIV. At the launch, we intend to have content for solo players as well as large-scale battles. We want a wide-variety from the start.
Q: Are you planning a simultaneous worldwide release or will it be released in Japan first?
A: Yes. At the launch, this will be a worldwide simultaneous launch on PS3 and Windows PC. English, Japanese, German, and French versions released at launch.
Q: Will all servers be worldwide or split by territory?
A: The current plans are to have worldwide servers that are cross-platform and cross-region. We will do a beta test and look at the balance and player experience. We want to look for a good balance between region and cross-region play.
Q: Will you be taking feedback from your FFXI users?
A: Yes, we still get a lot of feedback from our FFXI players and will continue to take feedback as we move into beta. The game will change as it goes.
Q: Will you try to move players from XI to XIV or will they be separate communities?
A: It's up to the community themselves. We envision users that will hopefully play XI one day and XIV another. They will be independent, but users are free to play both.
Q: Are there plans to localize the game in Spanish?
A: Currently, there is no Spanish version in development. We'll consider it if enough Spanish-speaking users demand it from us. Getting good translators in Japan is hard, but if there's enough demand we will consider it.
Q: How can users transmit this demand?
A: We will conduct marketing research.
Q: Is there any special element in the MMO genre that you will improve with this game?
A: Our plan from the beginning was to make the best Final Fantasy game available. That is our vision for XIV. Then we thought, how can we make the best FF game and we came to the conclusion that it would be an MMORPG. It was decided to make the best FF first, then led to the decision to make it an MMORPG and use that genre. However, we are trying to implement a lot of new systems that other MMO's haven't used in the past.
Q: Why did you decide to make a new game rather than continue to evolve FFXI?
A: It all comes down to, originally, FFXI was designed for the PS2. It then moved to PC and Xbox 360. A lot of people have asked for a port to the PS3. With an MMORPG of this size, you have to develop new content. Porting to a new technology would take a lot of effort. Instead, we decided to use that time to make something new.
Q: Yesterday's trailer that was shown, was that running of a console or was it pre-rendered?
A: There were parts that were pre-rendered and parts that were running on the in-game engine.
Q: Is that the quality you're aiming for? The scene with the Galka fighting, is that what you're aiming for?
A: Yes, that is the part that was running in-engine.
Q: In that scene, we saw many parties and many enemies. Is this the new focus: many parties fighting many enemies?
A: I cannot say too much, but we hope to have battles that are many vs. many and many vs. one.
Q: What would you like to emphasize with this game? What is different from FFXI?
A: For FFXIV, the keyword that we've been using is "The Growth and Development of the Character." We will have the same type of storytelling and high-quality graphics. We also want to expand and create new in-game systems. The player can grow & develop in a more natural way without putting too much weight on the player. We will expand the job system to make it fairly different from the one in FFXI. Another very important concept that takes a different direction from FFXI, for FFXIV we want to make it so the player can choose to play solo, in a party, 40 minutes, all-day... there will be content for ALL of those play styles and systems for all of those play styles
Q: On the beta process, will current XI players get in?
A: As with the actual release date of the game, we don't have a concrete beta schedule yet. We will have a beta and look forward to more information about then shortly.
Q: Will FFXI characters be portable to XIV in any way?
A: The game is completely different. There will not be any XI character transfers to XIV. However, the character design is familiar and XI players will be able to create a similar character. We will NOT be using PlayOnline, but friend lists will transfer over.
Q: If I'm new to the MMO genre, why would I choose FFXIV over other games?
A: We believe that players will fall in love with the world & story that we have created.
Q: I've been seeing information that the title is free to play, is this true?
A: No pricing has been decided at this time. It is still TBD.

I personally think the tarus look more realistic and far more detailed. Everyone says they're ugly but I find them far superior. Where are the male mithra? /sigh

They're the same place as the female Roegadyn.

Lalafells look x100 better than Tarutaru.

I don't care much for male mithra, since I wouldn't be one anyway.

You're kidding right?
Like my friend said, they look like something out of Silent Hill, or some cheapass horror movie. Short and stumpy is way cuter.

Well whether you like 'em or not, they are cute to me.

I'm just glad they won't be bite-sized anymore.
I wonder if SE will do the whole weapons shrinks with character size thing again. If so, I'm definately not being a Lalafell. I hate how Great Swords and Great Katanas are super-dinky on Tarus.

Lol seeing a full sized hagun on a bite sized taru would be hilariawesome.

I don't think I'm going to play this, but if I do, still gonna be elf. I just hope this time our necks and arms aren't so long. After a while you don't notice if you aren't looking for it, but still.

Or might be a hume if the stats are the same, but faces etc are pretty customizable.

Well wouldn't that suck if all equipment was race/gender specific instead of being universal? We already see the big price difference between male and female RSE x.x Imagine what it'd do to everything else.

If I play ffxiv i will most likely be the lalafell/taru things. But most likely i'm just gonna stay on XI.

This sword (like all weapons) was the same size, reguardless of your character's size. (like if that little robot had it [we called them Lolibots har har] it would still be same size.)
I made all my characters short on it. :3

Good times...

1. is it just me, or does the Roegadyn look A) Ganon-esque or B) alot like Liam Neeson taking a ***.
2. i think the lolafell look alot like albino bats now.

the Miqo'te look horrible, didn't need to improve on the mithra. they'd look better with the graphical update. humes look the same, and the elvaan look just as HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE in this as they do in FFXI. thankfully these aren't final models so i'll wait for more info. if these were the finals, i wouldn't be playing FFXIV ever. the only two that look somewhat decent is the hume and elvaan, and if i wanted to play hume, i'd just go outside. and i have no interest in being one of the off the assembly line fake-*** elitist wanna-be intellectual elvaans that make up 99% percent of the elvaan in FFXI.

also, 1up has some similar info along with some snippets of info from Famitsu piece with Nobuaki Komoto.

They're from Famitsu so everything in it should be pretty much official. Why does it suck? The environments look amazing.

Don't get me wrong: I'm still loving the looks of this game. I just hope that all of Eorzea isn't the same as Vana'diel, just prettier. Maybe those are just some zones that are for nostalgia? >.<;
