OMG thats it!! I AM PRE-ORDERING THIS RIGHT NOW! ** Runs off to ebworld to pre-order;)
hehe My orer has been placed. Ebworld has free shipping and a free mousepad deal going o right now:D can't wait
dx8.1 it seems, this is a MMO game though, you have to remember that. DX8.1 effects in an MMO environment is quite a feat by itself. DX9 wont be featured in MMO games until quite a while.Quote:

While the recommended specs are very conservative on memory, im warning anyone right now that you need TONS of memory for an MMO game, at least 512MB and preferably 1GB, which should be standard in anyone's PC when they pass the 2.5GHZ barrier and slap a radeon 9500+ or a geforceFX in its system anyway.
Ive been in the beta, and im not that impressed, some things are done VERY VERY well but the game itself is lackluster.
yes I am a huge MMORPG fan, ive played EvERY one, even the funky korean ones
too bad it's an mmorpg...i don't have the money to keep paying every month just the play the game...
SO it's PC and PS2?? That'll be interesting. I heard the PS2 verions is gonna cost something like $99 because you'll need the PS2 HDD to play it. But if it is PC as well, I'm all over it. "Like a hobo on a ham sandwich," I love buddy lee comercials ;) .
System Requirements:
Microsoft Windows 98/98SE/Me/2000/XP; Intel PentiumIII 800Mhz or faster processor; 128 MB RAM; NVIDIA GeForce series graphics processing unit with 32MB or ATI RADEON 9000 series graphics card; DirectX 8.1 compatible sound card; 6 GB free hard disk space; 4x CD-ROM drive (required only at installation); 56kbps modem or better; Keyboard, mouse
6 gigs!!!!! Wow, cant wait to play this one!
Those who want to see the graphics and also want to see how it will run on their PC, download the benchmark

note about the benchmark, if you uncheck the benchmark box in the menu, you will see a cool demonstration :)
Thanks BuggyLoop for the reply.:) It's DX8.1 and is a MMORPG, that's a pity 'cause I don't play online, especially MMORPG. Oh well, hope the game's everything you hope it to be.:)
I was reading on the site the sunscripton charges and it said + $1 for tetra master. Whats a tetra master and why would it be extra?
http://www.playonline.com/tetraus/
Tetra master is a card game, a minigame that appeared in FF9, now you can play tetra master online via FFXI.
I might add tetra master to my account, card games can be cool sometimes in an rpg, building your deck, gambling with other players. Pazaak in KOTOR made me play it for hours and hours for example. And 1$ is nothing, if you stop playing card games at one point just get rid of that account option.
Thanks for the info, didnt no that. Your overview just hyped me up and want to play this game even more lol. The only turn off thou is this random server selection, doesnt this mean new players will face a cultural barrier in terms of language and comunication? Doesnt it also mean new players would be playing with level 70's rnning about? Anyways other then that, the game looks like the most finished mmporg to be launched, it has houses, mounts, and quest contents on the very first day. Still sucks that we cant play on new servers with friends, the world pass idea seems, eh..weak.
Man, I do not want to pay per month.:( How much will it be at the stores? And how much is it per month?
Plus another buck a month per extra character.....
funk dat
they can bite me
