really i dont see the point of similar to terra. if you wan to it similar to terra then should continue on terra imho. final fantasy is mostly all about the fans understanding the series and having their fav summons or monster (malboro, tonberry etc) appear in mmo. In battle system wise, is more like a generic MMO should have but i would say is unique on its own

i didn't say they were similar. i was saying i hoped it to be similar

I think what graphidz tried to say bout the system is the action (inurface) combat...i personally dint like the action thingy coz it sometimes is just annoying ie.everybody rolling around kinda messy,pvp wise - ranged ftw

regarding battle system. I would definitely prefer the old style MMORPG, tab targeting than free-targeting action way of Tera, Tera combat is fun, but tiring as hell. i prefer this way. more relaxing. ^^" Still engaging but it give me chance to use my hand to drink while fighting.. ><

Agreed. I prefer tab targeting as well lol. Real time dodging shit is just too much trouble

Just wander if they have an option to move to target when using skill? i think i need manually move to target so i can use skill in P4

haha its base on WoW's battle system.. so no xD haha is still consider "old" mmorpg tab targeting as well xD

but yea i know wher eyou're coming from, the good ol'days of Ragnarok Online xD

haha, that my 1st mmo, been playing mmo for over 11 year now. Most tab mmo got this things. Thou i never play wow, so not sure much about it.

If uve played wow/rift/gw2 then its pretty much the same thing. But this is the final fantasy universe. If ur a fan of the series then this would pretty much seal the deal for u as it did for me.

Otherwise its just ur regular mmo. Nothing really new or groundbreaking going on here.

I think for me atthe very least it the Primal Summoning System, but that wont be ready for launch as it will be down the road, not sure when, but is very interesting.

Is not the usual where you will need Summoner to summon the primal. In X|V instead, is your FC who will be summoning, or group summoning a Primal into Eorzea. And it will be huge, weather change in that zone that is summon, etc.

Is very interesting down the road if it ever get implemented.

I forgot where I've watched Yoshida saying that but it's well worth noting that if you target a monster there will be an arrow tip as an indication showing where the monster is facing. If you try to avoid that arrow often you can avoid dmg taken. It will come out as 'Evade' or smtg. I've tried before.

uhh nope. the arrow indicator is who the monster engaging with.

there are AOE indicator that will appear in a red circle/cone/line on the ground that you can evade.

oh wow, so it was like some dodge mechanic in this game too. if its true then nice, i notice too when using plg, keep trying to hit from behind target, i take lesser damage rather just stand there facing the mob, somemore can kill mob fast too.

That i know. Other than that you can still evade normal attacks just by moving away from tht arrow. Like going behind the monster. It's in one of the producer's letter but I can't find it where is it.

Sorry not a producer's letter. Just a developer's commentary for PS3 UI =="

tbh I way more prefer the REALLY old school one- PS1's turn based.
developers these days just don't want to take risk making that kind of MMO sub genre zzz.

haha i agree..at least to me it will something new to mmo but as u can say risk is smth they would not take...for example, with current battle system style like generic mmo such as wow already got ppl complain not like terra...
