Support NeoGAF

[StoppedInTracks]

Heads up if you want to see how FFX looks and performs on PC Square is starting a stream now:

https://www.twitch.tv/squareenix

I think there is also some giveaway going on.

 

[Danlord]

Dual-audio de-confirmed

 

[Walker_Boh]

Have they revealed the price? I'm more than willing to triple dip, but not for $60 again.

 

[inner-G]

No dual audio

Since it's in the Japanese version though, it will probably be able to be modded in, right?

 

[KainXVIII]

Dual-audio de-confirmed

Pretty sure we can "mod" japan audio into game Not officially though.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

Maybe they will drop the official price during this stream, huh.

 

[KZXcellent]

Their saves are from March of 2015. Yeah, they've been sitting on this one.

 

[UrbanRats]

Don't want to play it in English, so without dual audio i won't bother getting it.

 

[Finishoff]

Will buy again when it goes on sale.
Already have it on the vita/ps4.

 

[Tizoc]

So how does the game look and what do they mention in terms of pc specs?

 

[dh4niel]

!giveaway

 

[nubbe]

that's FF8 music man

 

[KZXcellent]

Audio balance isn't their strong point clearly.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

I wonder why....

I made a thread about that topic before, but why do japanese not announce the game on time? I mean the game was officially announced 2 days before the release...

Reposting from the other thread:

The resolution list, due to the way it is ordered and the number of entries, looks like it's populated by Windows. But obviously you can't say for certain.
Also, it supports borderless fullscreen mode in the game options, which is nice.
Arranged and original music options are there for those who asked about that.

Anyway, I lost interest due to the lack of dual audio, I've already played it a lot of times with the English track. I'll buy it if someone mods that.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

FF8 music, lol.

If it turns out it's populated by Windows, that means support for 4k res?

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Every single save had an identical timestamp. So they've either been sitting on this for a very long time, or they ported over save files from the PS3/PS4 version on a specific date to work with.

I thought that. When they loaded it a very fast message appeared. Something about character names being reset to default over something.

 

[Durante]

If it's populated by Windows and implemented in a sane way then yes. Or 8k or whatever your PC reports.

(This was the case for FF13 LR, which is the most recent "high-end" S-E port)

 

[AtomskEater]

Thanks for the heads up.

For anyone who joins after this, whenever they play "Man With The Machine Gun" post !giveaway in the chat for a chance at a steam key.

Also hoping someone patches in JP audio sooner rather than later.

 

[AlanOC91]

Can't tell if it's my twitch player or the game that looks pretty jittery/sluggish.

For now I'll say my twitch player which always has lag issues. So hopefully it's that.

 

[nubbe]

Makes you wonder how long they have been sitting on the FFXII port

Probably a mix of 30fps + streaming



Looks like I'll be cranking up the AF in nVidia control panel

 

[Uraizen]

Dual-audio de-confirmed

First FF release on Steam without dual audio?

 

[Visualante2]

Sits on Final Fantasy X port
Releases it a month after the Final Fantasy IX port

Seems dumb.

 

[GhostTrick]

First FF release on Steam without dual audio?

I thought it has dual audio.

 

[Chris R]

Wish I could get a download code or something seeing as I've already bought FFX on Three other platforms

Might grab FFX-2 though, since I've still only put like ~5 hours into it.

 

[Sinatar]

I can't watch at work, but I'm assuming 30 fps?

Hopefully there's an option for more than that. Locked 30 FPS was fine in 2001, but that's unacceptable in this day and age.

 

[tuxfool]

I thought it has dual audio.

They just confirmed on the stream that it isn't dual audio.

 

[SargerusBR]

No japanese, No buy.

 

[GhostTrick]

Maybe it's like MGSV. Dual audio support isn't official but you can still get it by changing region ?

 

[AlanOC91]

There wasn't in the settings menu for the launcher so it's unlikely.

Only hope is a mod for it.

 

[tuxfool]

Given the age of the game it wouldn't surprise me that game logic is tied to the frame rate.

 

[inner-G]

Hopefully there's an option for more than that. Locked 30 FPS was fine in 2001, but that's unacceptable in this day and age.

Console games designed for NTSC TVs often have the animations and everything designed around being 30fps, cranking the game to 60 breaks things. It wasn't originally designed to run at 60fps on a PC, it was trying to get the most out of the PS2 hardware. The framerate doesn't impact gameplay.

 

[Onemic]

FF8 music, lol.

Of course. FF8 has the GOAT OST

 

[miserable]

wtf, sub-30 fps

 

[KainXVIII]

wtf, sub-30 fps

stream is 30 fps locked though.

No dual audio means I will only buy it when someone mods it.

ps2 has undubs, pc version will be even easier to mod.

 

[Linkark07]

No dual audio means I will only buy it when someone mods it.

 

[inner-G]

wtf, sub-30 fps

The text scroll at the top is even jittery, I don't think the game running at sub 30, it's the stream.

 

[Danlord]

The "Super secret options" they've not shown yet is probably going to be the "No Encounter" and "Speedhack" that we've had from before and was mentioned in the description from elsewhere.

 

[AlanOC91]

Now I wanna play FF8

 

[Kayo Police]

Yes 5th time is the charm.

 

[Dream_Journey]

No japanese, No buy.

Definitely.

Spoiler

(or maybe with some hell of a discount)

Edit: There is AO, nice to see.
