I actually had a very strange first result too. The one I posted originally was at stock clocks and was like 3,790 or something like that. When I OC'd back to what I normally ran, it went up to the second score I posted (4,3xx). However, when I put the clocks back to stock speed and ran a third test (because I felt it was really unlikely the CPU was being worked so hard in this benchmark looking at CPU usage), I got something like 4,150.

HIS Radeon HD 5850 OCed to 775/1125 (maxed in CCC)
8GB RAM
40GB Intel X25-V SSD
Could have sworn my CPU was OCed to 3.6GHz; dunno what happened.
Running damn well here. Haven't played an MMO since Ragnarok Online ~7 years ago. Thinking about giving this one a shot.

Final Fantasy XIV in 3D.

I wonder if the PS3 version will have 3D as well.

I wonder why they had him playing the Alpha.miladesn said:

Cool, more uninformed journos making shit up about the game.
Got a good score. I wouldn't put too much into your scores on this thing. It's a benchmark of a wildly incomplete game that may not make its release this year (and probably shouldn't). FFXI's benchmark was bad as well.
Edit: Uh, get off the blogger's back. It was a guided demo at a major expo. Again, not the best place to show off the game and it's not the guy's fault SE are idiots when it comes to that sort of thing. Why in the world would you have journals fetch pages from a book at E3? Really?

I love how you guys are freaking out about the Joystiq bit. You should blame Square for showing him an old version of the game. Nothing the guy wrote was wrong. The combat is slow and the interface is clunky. If Square has so improved the game in the Beta, then show people that.

He was playing the beta. The Stamina system is not implemented in alpha.

How much of a bad idea would it be for me to get it for PS3? I don't think I'll be upgrading my PC soon. I guess I need a USB mouse and keyboard and that's it?

I had assumed he meant the combat gauge or whatever that stupid thing is called that makes the combat so slow in Alpha. Plus he specifically calls it an alpha build.Pai Pai Master said:

Stamina is not present in Alpha version. He's misinformed.
2487 on high, nice and far smoother than ffxibench was all those years ago :lol Can't wait to play this.
The good news is that all the versions can play with each other. The bad news is that that's a major part of why there isn't a 360 one.

Sounds like that's on Square. They are really bad at saying the game is in both Alpha and Beta interchangeably. Either way I'm looking forward to the real Beta. The game is really awful right now and I'm hoping the Beta improves that. The combat still looks slow, but I can't really know until I use it myself.Pai Pai Master said:
Also, those who get bad scores on the benchmark, don't worry. My laptop gets awful scores, but plays the Alpha without a problem.

Tell them to play it on PC. If they can't even do that odds are they wouldn't play FFXIV for very long anyway.Cimarron said:Still no 360 version?
Are we sure that's the reason? Pretty schizophrenic online policy if so, it's not like people aren't playing FFXI on their PS3s.Mandoric said:

I've not only seen Alpha combat, but played it in many tests. Beta may be faster then Alpha, but it's still slow.
EDIT: Like I said, it's hard to tell with just the one video that's out there. I am more interested in higher level combat in groups since that's where most of the time will be spent. I'm thinking the speed will be better for doing something like that, but looks slow while fighting solo.

I'm hoping so. Just want Beta to come out already so I can try it! It's hard to be interested in Alpha tests when I have already seen how much better Beta looksKhrno said:
