NA site updated

Uematsu will compose all the music. Other people will handle the actual orchestrations though (since I'm assuming it will again be recorded music, not synthed.)

I noticed this yesterday when looking at the site again. I did a little dance. The guy is a genius. I want him to live forever.

So with no light/dark, does that mean healing spells will take an element? Its not exactly unprecedented, given that games like FFTA have used earth heal and white flame for elemental heals, but it would have been interesting to be able to spec into a light element and have stronger heals.

Cure has always been light elemental, so it'll be strange if they'll still be having a classic cure spell, without an element associated with it. Does that mean it'll no longer hurt the undead?

Maybe light would be something of a hidden score, a composite of the 6 regulars. That would make it so there isn't light/dark as 2 skills, but more a varying point in a single skill. That would probably align most mobs to the light side of neutral, giving dark (undead, w/e) mobs a default elemental handicap. I'd guess to keep from making all dark mobs exceptionally weak in this case they could have a bonus to magic resistance of some kind. This would also explain why banish can continue to suck ass against any mob that's not undead! lol

EU site still not updated. As usual SE treats us European as 3rd class citizen (see all major FFXI maintenance was always done during EU prime time). F.U.S.E!

Translation time. EU isn't a single language. Just go to na since you clearly speak english.

Some people are bugged by the differences in spelling certain words though.

And some people are bugged by pointless rants.

And spiders.

F.U. Spiders!



Anyway, I will acknowledge his reasonable reaction to Maintainances being in EU primetime 100% of the time. (Is this accurate? I don't play anymore) That definitely is an issue a multinational company should address sooner rather than later.

yeah i did go to the NA site. It's not the bloody point though they should be capable of updating 3 fucking languages in the space of 1 day if they just could be bothered. The fact is they can't be bothered because they don't give a fuck about us Europeans.

I haven't played FFXI in a year and a half so don't know if the update thing has changed since then however whilst i was playing maintenances and updates were always during EU prime time except when it was an emergency maintenance and then it would just fall whenever they realised there was a fuck up.

I realize this is an explanation bordering on fanboy, but maybe their translators are otherwise employed, like translating the MASSIVE amount of text that goes into an MMO. Or maybe, just maybe, they truly don't give a fuck and will do it eventually. I don't care, they haven't come for the gypsies yet. When that happens, then i'll speak up.

If you came from Europe you would understand. SE has always neglected us by not Porting many of their games to PAL region, or porting them years/months later (FFXI was released in Europe When CoP was released and many fans who wanted to play had to import a US copy and make fake US addresses to play which in turn has caused their POL ID to be unlinkable to their SE id and therefore haven't been able to get in the first wave of Alpha). The fact they can't be bothered to translate 10 paragraphs on our site is just their normal neglect.

Japanese game means shit is in Japanese first, Bigger sales are in NA, so shit gets translated for NA first.

What is so hard to understand?

And dont even start with the update time crap. Like SE will update a game during peak hours.

Iunno if they could handle it, replacing NA english with UK english is rough.. gotta get shite and bollocks in there and all that bloody shite.

We need to rename this forum to FFXIV: The Seventh Element is You! For some reason I laugh every time I see that, so cheesy.
