• EoFF Giveaway: Final Fantasy Tactics for the iOS

    So, it appears that the generous Square-Enix have given the EoFF Staff another prize to give away, and I have been given the opportunity to set up this competition for them. This time, the prize up for grabs being Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions for iOS!


    There have been a number of additions and improvements made in this update of the game. So whether this will be your first time playing the Tactics spin-offs, or if you’re a veteran of the games – this is the version to get, as it is the best way to experience Final Fantasy Tactics yet! These improvements include:

    • Refined Graphics - All of the game's unit graphics have been redrawn in high-resolution. Don't miss this chance to play the sharpest, most beautiful FINAL FANTASY TACTICS yet!
    • Improved Draw Speeds - The graphic drawing processes have been optimized for mobile devices. Say goodbye to choppy motion and crash bugs, and play with the quickest, smoothest abilities effects and animations to date!
    • iCloud Support - A save slot which allows game data to be saved to iCloud has been added. It is now possible to migrate game data across multiple devices.


    Now that you’re all undoubtedly excited for the chance to play Final Fantasy Tactics on your iPhone or iPad, you’ll want to know the details of how to enter with a chance to win.

    You have two weeks to submit a paragraph or two telling us what your favourite class from Final Fantasy Tactics is, and why? If you haven’t played any of the Tactics games before, which class would you most like to play, and why? It’s as simple as posting that in this thread to enter!

    There will be further tasks posted in the thread over the two weeks for you to complete to increase your chances of winning. Make sure you check back in with the thread so you don’t miss out.

    Remember, this is for an iOS copy of the game. Do make sure you have a device you're able to redeem this prize on before you enter!

    Good luck to you all!

      Make a new thread and five new posts in the Final Fantasy Tactics subforum. Post links back in this thread.
      I'll pass on that entry. Isn't spamming still a violation of forum rules? (I actually have no idea if it is or not). Seems like posting new threads when you have nothing to say and randomly filling up topics with inane posts to qualify for a drawing both fall under that umbrella.

      My favorite class is the Arithmetician/Calculator. Math skills? Now that speaks to me. It's an unusual class, yet powerful, and it can also be a double edged blade. If you're not careful, it might be useless or fatal to one's own units. I like being able to hit all units with the selected condition and inflict spread damage fairly fast and having to keep tabs on my characters to not have them victim as well.

      I completely agree.

      Edit : and here's my drawing entry. For the record, it's a penciling of the official art, and I changed the tabard to something more mathematical

      Not encouraging spam. It is an optional entry, so I am encouraging activity and discussion around FFT. Or so I hope.

      That's actually what I would be playing it on too.

      If you were true die-hard fans of Tactics you would be able to come up with non-spamming, intellectual posts in the first place!

      I don't know. Can you?

      (SPOILER)I believe the sentence you were looking for here was "May we still answer the first question?"

      Well, I've never played Final Fantasy Tactis, but I actually have an iOS player, so I'd be really excited if I won!

      I'd probably be really boring and predictable and enjoy playing as a summoner most. I love that despite the stats of a magic user/summoner, you have these really incredible and powerful attacks. Plus I love animals and summons kind of seem like pets!

      If you play FFTA or FFTA2, you can be a Beastmaster, and they get to control monsters in battle. And, storyline wise, they're a very pet-centered class (how you get introduced to them in FFTA2 is helping a Beastmaster with a hurt pet).

      Lucky the prize for entering is neither of those games!

      My favourite thing about EoFF is being an administrator. I am a lonely and worthless human being, and being able to wield power and authority over the users of a Final Fantasy message board fills a vacuum in my life that I cannot explain. If I see people being butts, I force them to compete in the Thunderdome. I mean, I could just say "yo, stop doing that thing!" but making them lose their dignity is so much more fun.

      I also love changing people's names, sigs, avatars, you name it, for no other reason other than the amusement of myself or whoever PMs me and tells me "yo, go change that dude's stuff!" (By the way, requests for profile rapes have dropped off. What's happening? Hit me up jeez) I also like reading the staff forum. It's full of terrible human beings with awful opinions but I get to make fun of them and hoot and holler like a gibbon, flinging my poo all over the forum until they are entirely distracted by my capering and stop posting the bad posts that upset me.

      My favourite thing at EoFF? That's kind of impossible to decided! I guess I'l have to be generic and go with the relationships. In the year and a half that I've been a member here, I've made so many wonderful friends. People I haven't physically met, but still consider to be some of the best friends I've ever had. I love that if I am having a rough time, I can talk to so many people on here about it, make a blog or EoEO thread, and get the support I need. I also met my boyfriend here, and luckily things aren't long distance for us. But he's the best guy I've ever dated, and thus EoFF has positively affected my life in a real way.

      So yeah, the relationships.

      My favorite thing about EoFF is that it is going to reward me with a free copy of Final Fantasy Tactics. My second favorite thing about EoFF is that I met my wife here.

      I am going to enter this contest just so that I can win the game and not let my husband play

      ---

      I haven't played any of these games before, but from a quick glance I can wager my favourite class from Final Fantasy Tactics is the Time Mage, because manipulating space and time is pretty cool; and like the Time Mage, I work best when left alone for a while.

      OPTIONAL TASK #1:



      OPTIONAL TASK #3: My favourite thing about eoff is my husband, although he would probably be mildly irritated that I associate him with "The Internet". Oh well! Go post something cute, dear.

      I'll show you the meaning of a permanent smite, mister!

      I also enjoy spamming and seeing how many staff members I can befriend before slowly taking this place over and locking Daniel Towns out of it unless he gives me a large subscription fee.

      My favorite thing about EoFF is that I can be a goofball (SPOILER)Often to other members' frustration. I have to be serious, adult-like, etc... at work so EoFF is a great place to have recess. The members are entertaining and I often read posts that make me smile. And we need more smiles in this world. (SPOILER)

      My favorite thing about EoFF is finding people who share my interests and are willing to talk about them. Do you know how hard it is to find people willing to have philosophical discussions about a character's motivations? Or who are willing to analyze the world mechanics of a game's magic system? There are so many great discussions I never would have had without this forum.
