People stressing for nothing. lol People obviously have more power over you then you do yourself. Hope you're proud.
People that are head over heels for PS2 consoles obviously are stuck in some fantasy that the ability to upgrade/enhance older software to utilize modern hardware seems nonexistent.
Yes I'm sure they most likely wont do anything of the sort, but they can! I wish they did. Newer and newer games coming out that do use it. The majority of people are going too or already have a console that is 10-20xs more powerful.
I guess it's just me lol I'm the only one in the entire Final Fantasy XI community that wishes they would upgrade to look and feel better. I guess that's why I play FFXIV now.
This is completely failed logic. Look at the Xbox 360, way superior in graphics and resolution... but achieves nothing signifigant hardware wise concerning the games actual structure.
If they ever did a PS3 release (that SOMEHOW wasn't a PS2 emulation which would result in the EXACT SAME gameplay you already do on a PS2)... the game wouldn't be any more fit to upgrade without a code rewrite which SE doesn't have the budget for.
You could completely remove Xbox360 and PS2... and it would benefit the game absolutely none while losing a giant portion of the player base because of a concept you understand nothing about.
Get from under your rock. Talking like you can play some super high end software game on a Nintendo. You can only go as far as your hardware. Ignorant I swear lol Wouldn't lose much of their player base. Like I said most, if not all have consoles already that are much more powerful. Do your own research. Where every household in america own a TV and or computer. Same goes for Japan, more then half of every house hold own a computer. /sigh

As for the game play, why would they release a FFXIV game? Game looks and feels 100xs better then XI. You're talking to someone who played XI for 7 years. There is a reason games are looking and playing MUCH better then they did 10 years ago. Is that because peoples interests are stuck in old age hardware where games didn't look and play nearly as good? No.. Of course not. Games are looking and playing better because that's what people WANT. You must be one of a rare few who don't actually care. So really. The topic of PS2 vs any better console really shouldn't pertain to you.
you need to get from under a rock and understand that it's not a hardware issue.

you need to get from under a rock and understand that it's not a hardware issue. Again not on the same topic. Don't respond to my posts anymore. lol If they did in fact improve the game, they can work around making the game more suitable for upgraded hardware. For the 100th time. They most likely wont, but they can. Is my point and most people wished they did.
By Jetackuu 2012-06-23 05:21:08
You keep going on about what is. You are probably not even on the same topic as I am. I'm talking about what they should and can do but refuse too. If you or anyone else denies the fact that the game can be better, well... That's really only thinking inside the box. There are many improvements people would love to see.
Fyreus hit one of them right on the nose.
They refuse to because they gain nothing from alienating a large portion of their base, and wasting money that they won't regain, research, do it.

Rambus If you (and all so suddenly) knew and understood how ram works and how it needs to flow to the cpu, which in ps2's case is very slow, then you would have dropped it long ago. Is it comparable to pc3200? No. The FBS is higher and iirc can be tweaked and iirc pc3200 is pumped 4x as opposed to the old 2x.
Pintos and Porches.
I know exactly how it "flows" but you seem to lack the reading comprehension of transfer rate (which includes the bus transfer rate in the equation).
Yes it is comparable to pc3200 /end
I like how you keep using car references, kinda funny.
no it's not, not by any stretch of reality.
As for our desires, they're outweighed by the JP desires of playing on their console, regardless of what the rest of the world wants.
Just because you say something doesn't mean it's true. Rambus has high top speeds but there's this thing called latency which it also has a high amount of. Because if has higher latency, it doesn't push/transfer as much data as a much lower latency stick that already pushes four times the amount.
Part of my job is to know Which, How, and Why when it comes to pc parts because i have to build them myself. I need to know which parts to get, why i need them, and how they work together. Faster data, more storage, multiple screens, etc they must all work together or else i'm gimping myself.
Comparing rambus (ps2) to a pc3200 is comparable to 2 soda bottle with holes. Rambus has 3 holes and the pc3200 has 12. Which do you think will empty faster? This is a really lame discussion and instead of pointing me to some amazing fact that's changed in the last 8 years you're saying "YES IT IS!" and that's pretty lame. Go check out toms hardware or email the guys at Crucial or Corsiar. This is bordering a haste discussion.
You're missing the point, the two are still comparable, the one has higher clock speed and latency, the other has a larger bus, for gaming the latency is kind of irrelevant, so yes, comparable.
You can say it's part of your job, but it really doesn't matter if it is or it isn't, so stop trying to make yourself sound important, it doesn't help your argument.
You don't understand... you have no idea how hardware works and i'm not making myself out to be anything. You've already proven in the previous threads that you don't understand any of this and are apparently using google to make 'points' as you take your time to explain things without understanding the basics of this archaic technology (it's over 10 years old ffs).
Here's an old excerpt for you to understand: http://www.researchut.com/docs/meminfo.html
So i'd like to know if you would compare 4% haste to 12+% haste, and if so, why? You can confuse people who know nothing about transfer speeds but you can't fool those who understand it. You seem to have an issue with not being able to realize that you're wrong and continue to dig yourself into a deeper hole. While this isn't a right vs. wrong kinda thing this IS a slow vs very fast discussion and you're a bit slow.
Bold part for lulz

the other post you made responding to me, wasn't me responding to you.
This reply however was to you, and was on your topic.
No, they can't upgrade the game's capabilities without an engine overhaul, and they won't do that because there's no logical reason for them to do so.

Because who WOULDN'T make the business decision to cut 25% or more of their user base and recode the entire games infrastructure which will ultimately bring NOBODY back because of it. Cut the player base, lose profits and dump insane amounts of money into a recode for no profit margin?! Sign us up!
I highly recommend a business 101 class at your local community college, because some people in this thread sincerely need a little education.

I do understand, and you are trying to make yourself out to be an expert, waving your epeen around, when I've already proven you wrong.
What previous threads are you perhaps speaking of?
The basics of this technology is the basics of computer electronics, which I have a very good understanding of, as for the particular hardware in question I was googling numbers, as numbers don't lie (and I can't or rather won't remember them all in my head).
I'm not going along with your derail, and you obviously don't understand it or you wouldn't have started this argument when you're wrong.

Maybe I should make a thread and see how many people wished for what in XI, but can't get because of the games limitations. I want to see 1024x1024 rendered polys lol HD graphics alone would make me one hell of a happy camper. Myself a graphic designer, enjoys seeing pretty graphics vs boxes. Buuut of course that's probably just me. /nod. Yea right. Most people enjoy better graphics. I can't understand why people would want to constantly alter their .dats Can you?

It's called a sarcasm tag. I'd tell you to try it some time but seeing as you completely fail at everything else your trying to explain It'll probably woosh.

I'm sorry If i'm not someone you can best, especially when we aren't even playing the same game. I'm talking about what they should do and what they can do, but refuse to do. And your trying to force me to understand something not on the same topic. I understand everything your saying about a big portion of Japan being PS2 users and how it would be a big cut off from that player base if they did cut off PS2 they would lose out a lot of revenue.
I'm simply talking about what a lot of people want. Who doesn't wish the game had better graphics or was more fluid? Fyreus wants to be able to see more players on their screen. Some want the game to have a bigger selection of auto translations. Or maybe another wants to play the game in real HD and see prettier special effects.
Common sense is exactly that. I'll leave it at that. Some people in this thread is obviously to narrow minded to even begin to understand any sort of change. Talk about dreams shattered T.T Can't even talk about the what if portion of FFXI 2.0 /sniff
One last thing. I wished FFXI has 14 graphics, but the same exact play style as 11 lol Same exact, well a little prettier UI :3

Here's an old excerpt for you to understand: http://www.researchut.com/docs/meminfo.html
So i'd like to know if you would compare 4% haste to 12+% haste, and if so, why? You can confuse people who know nothing about transfer speeds but you can't fool those who understand it.
I do understand, and you are trying to make yourself out to be an expert, waving your epeen around, when I've already proven you wrong.
What previous threads are you perhaps speaking of?
The basics of this technology is the basics of computer electronics, which I have a very good understanding of, as for the particular hardware in question I was googling numbers, as numbers don't lie (and I can't or rather won't remember them all in my head).
I'm not going along with your derail, and you obviously don't understand it or you wouldn't have started this argument when you're wrong.
Sounds generic. If anyone reads this and buys rambus because they didn't research or couldn't email a company a quick question, then they should seek this person for a refund of their hard earned cash.
I'm sure anyone who actually currently has a system that can use Rimms, they know what it does.
I'm sorry If i'm not someone you can best, especially when we aren't even playing the same game. I'm talking about what they should do and what they can do, but refuse to do. And your trying to force me to understand something not on the same topic. I understand everything your saying about a big portion of Japan being PS2 users and how it would be a big cut off from that player base if they did cut off PS2 they would lose out a lot of revenue.
I'm simply talking about what a lot of people want. Who doesn't wish the game had better graphics or was more fluid? Fyreus wants to be able to see more players on their screen. Some want the game to have a bigger selection of auto translations. Or maybe another wants to play the game in real HD and see prettier special effects.
Common sense is exactly that. I'll leave it at that. Some people in this thread is obviously to narrow minded to even begin to understand any sort of change. Talk about dreams shattered T.T Can't even talk about the what if portion of FFXI 2.0 /sniff
and some people are too dense to understand that these things aren't possible within reason.
Seriously stop talking talking to me like I don't understand what they wont do.... Gosh. I swear. Who is the dense one?
Apparently as you often confuse won't and can't.

I don't care about graphics much, but I remember they blamed one thing on PS2: gobbiebag space. If this means we can have more... *explodes with joy*

sounds like one of SE's lies to me, but it would be a tossup between the engine or the console on that one.

You really shouldn't say can't. That's really setting your bar pretty low. The fact is they can, but refuse too because they would lose out on a decent sized portion of their JP PS2 users.
You should read on this guys post. Had some nice points about why PS2 should be dropped and or what they could do just to overall make the game better.

I want to see a legit survey statement about the amount of PS2 users there really are. Anyone have any site for it?

I'm simply talking about what a lot of people want. Who doesn't wish the game had better graphics or was more fluid? This is what YOU want. The graphics of FFXI while dated are long lasting and current in my opinion. Do you think the graphics of FFXIV are honestly what make the game great to you? The fact you even mentioned you were glad you left XI to move to XIV shows your driven by shiny graphics and interfaces regardless of the fact the entire game is sub-par and has no depth in comparison to other MMO's.
But as you said that is a completely separate argument all together which was nowhere near related to the original conversation.
What you want isn't what the entire FFXI community wants. In fact I don't know anyone OTHER than you who for whatever god forsaken reason wants an entire rewrite of the code and drop of PS2 support.
This is where my point comes in. Dropping PS2 support and recoding the game to "look and feel better . . . fluid" as YOU describe... will cut profits and waste money in the recode... which you complain they "can but won't do". When the correct answer is they SHOULDN'T do.
If anyone has a narrow mind and stubborn head on their shoulders it's unfortunately just you. NONE of the information (minus the argument between Jetackuu and someone else about RAM or whatever) is fabricated or talked out of my *** or Jetackuu's for that matter.
I for one would NEVER wish a code rewrite or graphics engine upgrade on FFXI... because it will destroy what made the game classic and everlasting for the past 10 years. I would NEVER want to cut out an entire JP community on PS2 and wish SE to commit FFXI suicide by losing profits and dumping money into a worthless cause.
I gave FFXIV a long lasting fair trial even despite the total beta blowout... the game is garbage even with the pretty graphics and shiny interface. You can explore all content within your 30 day trial and has zero depth. 2.0 is a false hope and this legacy program is another life support to keep people subscribed until 2.0 comes out at a way later date with the promise of a small discount.
In short graphics don't make the game. They never have and never will. They are a wow factor at best and I would never wish upon anything that FFXI gets recoded and drops the PS2 playerbase because it would be the death of the game period.

no it's because the strategy wouldn't be cost effective, it would a bad business decision, no company is going t invest millions to lose money on purpose, so yes they can't within reason.
Again: the only purpose dropping the PS2 would serve is to overhaul the engine, which isn't going to happen as also stated.

It's not just about what I want. If it's just about what I wanted... You seriously think so? Why would the majority of games become what they are today? Yeaaa totally, I'm the only one who enjoys prettier graphics. /nod
As for 14 talk about content. They released the game too early. You judge to soon. The game is still in die hard development. Really shouldn't be talking about that. lol I just started the game this month really. Already got 3 50 jobs and completed the main story line and all GC quests. I don't log on anymore really because there isn't much to do. So looking forward to seeing what 2.0 has to offer.
* Everything is subject to change.
:P
Graphics don't make the game, you're right, but they sure are a major plus. You must be like 40 years old, or maybe older? Graphics hater. Or maybe you just haven't been able to experience the taste of amazing graphics :3

If there's 1 thing they could afford to recode, it's the POL to FFXI imho. I say that as i'm not a fan of pol and the billing sucked when it was around and sometimes the extra procrastination could be avoided with a simple log in screen like 14 D:
I haven't noticed any uproar over this but has anyone noticed that on the teaser site that PS2 isn't listed as a supported system?
