On TV, Shit because it's still not optimized for HDTV. The text looks so small and blurry on 1080i and to make it look big, you need 480p which is what regular tv's run at or so, if you connect it to a monitor, then it looks very good.


I was hoping a lot more ppl would play with me but it's been out for a while now and nobody is on

I spoke to Jahuran via xbox live but thats about it... I'm think I'm just gonna go ahead and level my blm to 75 on zigma.

Fuck beta Can't do shit alone and it's all filled with nubs.

My (computer) monitor IS an HDTV, so I'm not sure what you mean. On the PC I have to change the aspect ratio to 16:10 in the config menu in game or things look squashed, but nothing looks blurry. If/when I get an Xbox360 I was hopeing to use it with the monitor as well as it has multiple inputs and PiP. I'd be REALLY surprised if the 360 version doesn't support 1080i properly... are you sure there isn't a setting you can use?

I'm technology man+1 so trust what i'm saying that although the gfx handle 1080i, the menu and interface looks like shit and needs to be fixed for higher resolutions. If you look online, there are also people complaining about it but then again, this is a beta after all.

[shihei]

can you talk to ppl on xbox live while you play ffxi at same time?

[Zigma]

yeah

[Hidetso]

My Gamertag is plake. Feel free to add me, I'll pick up the mag whenever it's available in Sweden - should be tomorrow or the next tuesday at the latest.
I probably won't be able to play hardcore until February though.

how many Zinc Ores or Yagudo Necklaces are there to get Norg fame for Utsusemi quest?

105 zinc ores, 1 to start the quests then 104 to trade in. Doing that gets you enough fame for the first three quests, which in turn get you enough fame for the last three. Not sure about yag necklaces, but at least 200.

210 did it for me, and I had done none of the other associated quests. I did it back at a very low level when I had rarely been outside windy at all.

[Carbon]

My roomate made a character named Carboncopy >.> So if you see that person, it's not really me, but the same household.

I personally don't see the point of playing until I know I get to KEEP my character.

No static formed or linkshell created. Mostly pure frustration at the moment of dying by the sneaky paws of a decent challenge rock lizard.

Mrargus is go. I'm up and owning up Bastok. Level 4 or 5 at the moment, will be playing as soon as servers go back up.
