I've been trolling the depths of the Japanese Internet and came across some things you might find interesting. It seems that some people have got their hands on Famitsu and Dengeki early this week and have shared information with the Internet. It doesn't seem as if pictures of them are available yet, but I'll be heading out to pick them up if they have the information in them.
Edit: Looks like someone was nice enough to take a shot with their cell phone!
Ah, enough out of me. Who wants some juicy rumors?
Battle
Gladiators and pugilists have aggro raising abilities
Monsters also form parties
Not as much camping, you fight on the move
MP does not refresh normally, but there are ways to restore it
It will be important to control MP use
Position will be important in battle
There is something called "battle maneuvers" (the word "maneuver" here is the same word used in the beginning of the Japanese Gundam title, and starts with the symbol for “machine.” I’ll let you guys have fun thinking about that.)
Job specifics
Gladiator
Moves like phalanx and shield bash from FFXI are useable, but they are different from XI. In 14, phalanx is an ability where you guard with your shield and attack at the same time
Pugilist
whistle (FF11's taunt) and steal abilities
Pugilist is made for people who don't sweat the small stuff
Marauder
Axe accuracy is low
"Boost" ability
Marauder is for people who want the most glorious parts of the battle
Lancer
Can pull sneak attacks on enemies not in battle stance
Archer
Has a back-up plan when they run out of arrows
Has an ability to make enemies flee
Made for players who like to be alone
Archers use bows, not crossbows, but other classes might
Arrows are not labeled by materials like XI, but by enemy types, numbers, and landscapes
Miner
a miner’s mining can bring in extra income for the party
The more miners in a party, the more this effect increases
Mining places will be made visible to miners only
Blacksmith
can repair weapons and armor another player is holding
Thaumaturge
can take MP from defeated enemies (defeated enemies my not immediately disappear)
More game info
Everything done in battle in FFXIV increases TP, including casting
Defense can happen both automatically and at the will of the user
The PC version will be able to run on PCs from a few years ago, but the alpha version will only run on high-end PCs
Can be run on 512MB of VRAM and above
Alpha test starts soon
Square wants to make it possible to play with your friends from FFXI
Character customization won’t be fully available in beta (can’t change facial features)
There’s a mode for restoring HP while moving
The plan is the make the maximum number of members in a party between 6 and 8, and there will also be alliances
The important things in battle are distance, range, and direction
There will be magic you can use while moving
There are screenshots in the magazine of the alpha version, and it looks like there have been a lot of small changes
“Aggro/hate” has a different name in 14 (Translates to something like how much the enemy views you as a threat)
Enemies will not be set in one area in order for people to pull them to camps; places that enemies will appear will be scattered around
With the tester site opening tomorrow, I'm sure Square Enix also has a site update in store for us with fresh screenshots and other goodies. Until tomorrow, Corians!
