Re: New York Event Q+A Thread

Will there ever be science fiction elements added to the game?


How much of Vana'diel would you say has been uncovered so far?

Re: New York Event Q+A Thread

have they considered additional communication tools such as moderating/voicing people in linkshells?

They won't add voicing...

1UP: Will the 360 version support voice-chat? We sure hope not.

HT: No, it won't. The reason being is that we track player abuse through the chat logs, and if we removed the necessity of the chat log, it would be impossible to take action against abusive players.

IME for NA is because S-E has to pay for a custom dictionary set...so the less the better, for people who don't need it.

There are many work arounds now, which if you're actually persistent to type JP, you'll find it.

And Rochester...they could of done better by doing in the city, but I guess they don't have a budget for that...

It would of been great if it had been Times Square, but they would have to make things 10x bigger and expect people by the thousands.

Well, it's not a massive event held only be SE, it's an event in partnership with iGames stores, so my guess would be that there isn't a good iGames location in New York City, with Rochester being the best choice otherwise.

Actually plenty in nyc...it is nyc after all...though probably none of them can accommodate the people expect to come with nyc hotspot area.

Ashame really, if they did host it in the city, they would have to set up tons of stuff to hold off the fans lining through the streets.

One look of what they did to the harrypotter release last month and you can image the resources needed to host an event in a popular area. Turned the whole area into Diagon Alley so I heard.

...back to budget again.

On the PS2, they are required to pay because an outside company made that IME. IME is set on Windows, so they wouldn't have to pay more. I actually think the problem is just that the PC version is a port of the PS2 version.

Re: New York Event Q+A Thread

I know what the name of the city this is in, but im not sure where it is. I would like to go, but if its to far I can not. Could you tell me how far it is from New York City?

Re: New York Event Q+A Thread

It's pretty far, but nothing a car can't do... public transportation might be problematic, but nothing the grandcentral station won't solve...you can go almost anywhere in the state through grand central.

You go towards toronto...and it's somewhere in between.

Ask them how to pronounce d'Oraguille, and Saurougmue Champaigne. Also anything else that sounds funny.

That's easy. Ask a JP user. There is never a problem with pronunciation when you do it that way.

Make the IME a PlayOnline Plus Feature, where you pay like $29.95 for the feature so those who want it can buy the feature for the NA/EU client.
