Final Fantasy XV – genauer Inhalt des Crown-Updates

Wie wir inzwischen wissen, bekommt Final Fantasy XV in Form des Crown-Updates zum morgigen Release nun doch einen rund acht GB großen Day-One-Patch spendiert. Nova Crystallis hat jetzt dessen gesamte Patchnotes vom Japanischen ind Englische überstzt und hier ist das Ergebnis:

Battle

• Added actions inspired by the “Omen” trailer produced by Digic Pictures to the game:
  • “Shift (Warp) Drop Kick” (When daggers are equipped).
  • “Backward Shift (Warp) Magic” (Elemental Magic Activation within a short distance).
• Below are examples of Wait Mode-exclusive abilities added to Ability Call to improve the Wait Mode experience:
  • Libra Speed Increase: By using Libra you can obtain information more quickly.
  • Wait Gauge Recovery: The Wait Gauge will recover upon defeating an enemy.
  • Surprise Attack Shift Break: When Shift Breaking to an enemy that isn’t targeting you it’s easy to destroy the targeted part.
  • Final Blow Shift Break: When Shift Breaking to an enemy with less than half HP, the damage multiplier will increase.
• Additional battle screen effects added to make it easier for players to understand their HP status:
  • When HP is less than 25%, the whole screen will be covered by a light red filter.
  • When in a pinch, the whole screen will be covered by a dark red filter.
  • The Enemy Whistle will be available to use after downloading the patch. You can call monsters but they won’t always appear.
  • Movement taken at the time of a MP Burst is cancelled. Trying to shift in MP Burst will cause movements to fail.

Field

• You can now shift forward in the field outside of battle.
