Thanks this is what I wanted. I'll take your wait mode.

 

[MogCakes]

The skill level for everything they've shown for the game is incredibly low so idk how anyone would need to rely on it but options are nice.

If the Platinum demo IG fight is anything to go by, the boss fights will require more technical mastery than killing say, a deer.

 

[Hades Hotgun]

That looks a lot better. Something like how Mass Effect combat worked.

 

[Corpekata]

It's more Real Time with Pause now than turn based.

Sort of reminds me of Transistor a little bit.

Not a fan of it activating when you're just not using buttons, give a button for it.

 

[Philippo]

Haven't we been in wait mode for the past ten years?

This is brutal.

XV's hype machine

WE ARE NEVER SAFE.

 

[Fraxin]

Targeting body parts?

Vagrant Story like?

[MultiJhonny]

Thanx

that's pretty neat and fixes locking on problems.

 

[wmlk]

This system looks to works well especially because of Noctis' Warp Strike ability.

I played it and it isn't even remotely hard hence the "everything" in my post

 

[Death Penalty]

My main concern is that you have to go into a menu to toggle this on and off, and by the way he described it the game automatically pauses when you aren't making inputs. I'd prefer it pause with a button press.

 

[Ran rp]

Reminds me of Transistor but without the ability to move around.

Or VATS, I guess.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

I played it and it ain't hard

No one said it was hard. But it's not fun. This looks far more fun to me.

 

[wmlk]

At the very least, I hope the cursor in the menu stays where you last left it.

 

[Starlightmuse]

As it is I don't really like it, I want to be able to toogle it using a button input.

 

[Altered Juice]

Haven't we been in wait mode for the past ten years?

 

[malboroking]

He's been getting so much shit for his combat skills in all of the XV presentations since yesterday morning. You can tell they're not happy about it.

But wait, I thought all you had to do was hold a button to beat the game? That's what everybody on GAF has been telling me. Were his fingers greasy and they kept slipping off the button?

 

[SPAW]

My main concern is that you have to go into a menu to toggle this on and off, and by the way he described it the game automatically pauses when you aren't making inputs. I'd prefer it pause with a button press.

hopefully, a play tester or anyone with brains will suggest using a simply button prompt to switch between "wait "and "action" mode.

 

[Plywood]

That looks like it'll just make combat take longer.

 

[Night_Knight]

.

 

[Pandora012]

Why does the music pause?

 

[Wagram]

Essentially it's the same thing from FFXII. You have an active constant mode or you can stop and freeze time. Great option.

 

[benzy]

My main concern is that you have to go into a menu to toggle this on and off, and by the way he described it the game automatically pauses when you aren't making inputs. I'd prefer it pause with a button press.

If there's enough feedback they'll probably patch it in an update. Let them know on the XV forums and social media.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

AWFUL HUD CAN BE TAKEN OFF!
MAP displays and all other JUNK!

 

[Falk]

Is there a way to implement a pause system in a game that doesn't make the game take longer?

 

[wtd2009]

Haven't we been in wait mode for the past ten years?

Ouch

 

[sn00zer]

Jeezus.....I swear trying to make everyone happy has turned the battle system into a mess.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Pause -> Skip Battle

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

You can turn the guide off. Done asap.

 

[Falk]

Pause -> Skip Battle

Touche.

(My punchline was actually skip cutscenes hahahaha)

 

[cybercircuit1]

I wonder if this is what we can expect from FF7:R in terms of options or if they're going to do something different. I remember they were trying to beat around the bush when asked about battle systems and active/turn based stuff.

 

[DPtheGod]

Maybe the music "stops" because the settings posted above show music volume set to 0?

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

I cannot believe my main concern with this game (the combat) has mostly been addressed.

Maybe the music "stops" because the settings posted above show music volume set to 0?

You seem correct about that.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

That looks like it'll just make combat take longer.

At least it will seem less chaotic.

 

[brian!]

so it's rtwp

 

[Ran rp]

what's position?

Pause -> Skip Battle

damn

edit: wait so are all of these options for wait mode?

 

[Raynes]

Haven't we been in wait mode for the past ten years?

Savage. Take the rest of the day off!

 

[Zhao_Yun]

what's position?

damn

edit: wait so are all of these options for wait mode?

Probably camera position.

No, this seems to be the general Options menu.

 

[BasilZero]

Haven't we been in wait mode for the past ten years?

Lmao savage yo xD

 

[Mailbox]

what's position?




damn

edit: wait so are all of these options for wait mode?

Position is probably for Camera. since its right below the x/y inversion and sensitivity settings.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

SE, you finally did it.

I haven't bought a Final Fantasy since the day XIII came out.

You ended my drought with that presentation.

 

[rayman1900]

Now Matt will not shame us all next time he'll try to demo us the game!

 

[DPtheGod]

[Naudi]

That is great news!

 

[wmlk]

Lol, Tabata made a point out of the Wait mode out of spite. This is for you, Matt.

 

[MultiJhonny]

Mat Kishimoto wants to kill FFXV

 

[DPtheGod]

All off the options were changeable/selectable before they turned it to wait mode.

 

[Samimista]

Glad to hear it, sister. It seems we're both getting the same edition.

Let's hope XV will be fun.

Lol I'm sure Matt will be happy!
