Adopt Windower Plugins: Some of the plugins are very useful things that are not really cheating I.E. EXP watch/Party TP(?)/recast/ect

Screen Menu Cutomization: Yes I know you can change the backing. Let the use move them to different spots on the screen. I know alot of people who would like their TP bar on the bottom or their PT menu on the other side ect

Voice Activation: Far fetched cuz of all the languages and personal pronunciation i.e. "Dynamis" some say DIE-namis some say Dy-na-mis. Hard to implement but i think it could be a very cool SELLING POINT for the game. You say "stoneskin" and it casts it- how cool is that. There could be a bank of words that the player has to record him/herself saying and boom FIXED! Win.

In Game Mic: Im game microphone communication.

SOMEONE MAKE SURE SE SEES THIS! i think they are nice ideas dont you?

I don't approve of recast... or alot of the plugins actually. And yes I use windower. I only really like tp now because no matter how much I yell out how much tp I have people will still try to interupt my self skillchains or go on there own when were trying to skillchain so this lets me time things against stupid people... but frankly it lets them do the same to screw me over and over again...

Nothing taxing about this, the game calculates all these things (distance, recast etc), why does it need to be hidden from the player? So got my vote here.

I can't think of a game where there isn't some kind of indication of how long until abilities/spells/whatever are ready to use. It doesn't have to be as obvious as the recast plugin, but a bar that fills over time (spy cloak from TF2) to give a rough indication of the time left.

Most of the windower plugins 'look' more of a cheat than they are as they look so forced. The don't fit within the game naturally, building them in from the start would avoid this

This is probably going to happen in FFXIV too, as this is manly a "console limitation". (I know the mighty PS3 could handle this, but that will be SE's excuse)

Interesting concept, but sounds like a nightmare when you combine it with the next point. You are trying to detail the plan for an event over the mic system and in the background you have people shouting "Stoneskin", "Refresh me" and "Cure 4 Current target" in the unnatural forced voice people us when trying to use voice activation.

Yes please. Consoles now have mics, so this should be 'simple' and 'fair'.

in before windowernutpunch.

Windower, isnt exactly unfair.
If I remember correctly:

360 Has:::
Achievements for just about everything you do.
Free vent (not to mention built into the controller)
-Not to mention the ability to communicate with any of your XBL friends whether their playing FFXI or not, at any forsaken time.
Backdrop music player.

PC Has:::
Windower
Needless to say SE does have a "lolwindower". But for anyone who has ever used it... It comes with alot of lag, when you try to switch from window to window. And its still not as great as people make it out to be.

Ps2 / Ps3 Has:::
Lag.

Amirite?

Randomness, but I hate people who think changing .dats of char appearance is cheating.

PS2 onry player here and honestly I can count the number of times I've d/c'ed on 2 hands playing since na ps2 release. Never d/c'ed during a besieged, never really experienced play interrupting lag either. Only issues I had was during the whole whitegate npc freeze catastrophe which from what I heard was widespread and not ps2 exclusive.

In short, apart from fail screen ratio and no access to 3rd pt plugins ps2=win for me.

I still to this day don't understand the bitching about lag with the official windower. Every single person I know that plays with the windowed mode on a PC has never had a problem with lag whatsoever strictly because of it.

Seriously, what are you guys playing on, P3 800 Mhz machines or something? My 1.6 GhZ Athalon XP, with 512 MB of RAM, handled windowed mode just fine... >.>

OMG! That's gotta be...mixed!

I agree that I like the crash-free nature of the PS2. I don't like the 640x480 resolution though. The menus and the macro palettes look HUGE! I can't see stuff when I kite around...

I wish wireless keyboard and mice work with the PS2 though, it's very picky.

we already have enough lag with too many people in one particular zone. Now you wanna be trapped in lag with too many people AND being able to hear them?!

Doesn't PC have....Vent! 360 can only handle 6 ppl per chat channel instead of 10 the vent gives free. I'm not poking, but there's a lot each system has/doesn't have that the other do. Using windower would give me a stroke cause I can't keep tabs on all those numbers and plugins. The "lolwindower" SE has does it for me with no problems besides the wait for my gamepad to start working again.

I for one wouldn't like the open mic after dealing with years of preteen boys on Halo.

XBL Vent = Free. And great quality.
Have you ever used a free vent?
That ***is crappy as hell, and you have to worry about spammers comming and and doing stupid ***.

Yes I understand your point, im just nit-picking cause I know alot of people that think windower is satan's machine of doom.
Just cause they dont play on PC.

Of course, there'd have to be ways to turn it off (the mic and chat channels, I mean)

I wouldn't wanna hear people babbling up a storm in my headset either...

You musta been on some ***servers. I had my own free vent server for years, never had any issues with that. It was password protected and ran on my file server/media center. Worked fine, outside of when my brother would get on XBL and start downloading demo's and ***...

How about a /join voice chat command, and a voice chat tab under the player chat menu. Wouldn't be so hard, then you could talk to people in party/ally/tell via channels the same way they filter typed chat.

You mean 90% of mithra?

I play a chick char, but I'm open about the fact that I'm a dude. I don't want anybody's gil or gearz, I just wanted to play a sexy chick that kicks *** ^^

I used vent during my *cough* *cough* WoW days and it worked well for me. Could just join Verizon and hope your friends are friends with other people in FF ;P.

XBL is limited to only people on your FL and you don't have 100 friends. Really I don't like talking unless I really have to. I really don't see how people can complain about Windower since they have the same status bars and timers.

If people are going to complain about something like that then why not start with the Van'Diel(sp) clocks. Doesn't that give some an advantage over nothing like Windower?

I play both PC and Xbox versions and don't see any advantage besides graphics.

Lol...you know being a male playing a female char is understandable. I'd rather stare at a semi-nekkid mithra running around than some male char. At least my wife would feel safe about my sexual orientation ;P

Oh just please touch it! Really overall what is the complete point of the game? Kill mobs, get drops, sell stuff to make money, level jobs and of course, watch the cutscenes! Really if it's a keyboard or gamepad/controller, isn't the end product just kill stuff and make money?

No and nor will I. I'm not fond of tweaking something that works just fine for me.
