Talk:Final Fantasy XIII

Multiplayer in FFXIII

Is there any news if there's going to be multiplayer or not? I figured since they were not producing a sequel to Final Fantasy XI in the form of another FF MMORPG, they might include a similar multiplayer aspect in future FF titles. 72.49.194.69 01:43, 26 July 2007 (UTC) Joshua

I'm really sorry for the antagonizing behavior, Joshua. As for your query, no, there's no news up yet for multiplayer capability. If you have any news about it, feel free to post it up, but make sure it's a reliable source. And again I apologize. — Blue。 01:56, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Awwwww, that was very sweet and compassionate of you Bluerfn. Thank you for saying so, I will not forget your kind apology to me, however I am the one that should apologize. I regret our past exchanges, I was completely belligerent and out of line, aswell as simply provoking conflict and tension. I am sorry, it will NOT happen again. I am predisposed and prone toward anger, ie. quick to anger, which is a problem I've been trying to deal with. It is in no way to suggest any kind of excuse for the behavior I exhibited towards you, rather it is simply an admission of a really awful personal flaw I have. With that said, I'll just say that I hope to hear more about FFXIII's online capabilities and possible multiplayer at TGS 2007. Correct me if I'm wrong, Bluerfn, but didn't one of the FFXIII producers mention online capabilities in an interview? 72.49.194.69 03:36, 26 July 2007 (UTC) Joshua

Oh and before I forget, Bluerfn. I also wanted to mention, I was arguing with you over PS3 exclusivity for FFXIII and such. Turns out, you were right and I was wrong. Square Enix said plans for Xbox 360 are a 'blank page', FFXIII definately won't be appearing for the 360. I really wanted it to be multi-platform but that's a pipe dream now. 72.49.194.69 03:47, 26 July 2007 (UTC) Joshua

We are all prone to our emotional and negative persons, myself included, and that is an admission of my own lack of professionalism and rational-thinking. The "exclusivity discussion" will forever be a reminder of it. That said, let's put the past behind us and act together professionally to improve Wikipedia articles.

Here's an interview on FFXIII in E32006. It's not much, but there seems to be hints on online capability. — Blue。 03:53, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

It's interesting that he says "Although it is not in the schedule currently, it might be added half a year later." I wonder if he meant half a year after the game is released they will do something with an online component. Unless he meant half a year after that interview was done, ie. later down the road in production. 72.49.194.69 18:20, 26 July 2007 (UTC) Joshua

ATB Mixed with Real Time?

I noticed that the Enemies were Moving in Real Time the trailer for FF13,but this could jus be a up and down motion or moving a couple centimeters and forward. like,lighting can move but is limited to if she can attack or not. Probably not. i guess >.<.--Hitamaru 16:53, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

You are correct, the battle system of FFXIII will be ATB mixed with RT, as opposed to ADB (featured in FFXII). One of the producers mentioned this in an interview. Did you mention this because you wished to add it to the article or what? 72.49.194.69 20:39, 1 August 2007 (UTC) Joshua
