Are you saying there is a hole that opens and close automatically every time the Ragnarok passes?
But it donīt explain why you can stationed the Ragnarok on the middle of the wall.
You know,when you stationed the Ragnarok pass through the wall VERTICALLY and remains on itīs middle on the ground.
Yes.Quote:

You're talking about a videogame here. Haven't you ever played a game, such as a first person shooter, where your character's or another character's hand passes through a wall? It's a problem with a lot of early 3D games. That's all there is to it, I'd say.
So you say this is a bug,Right?
Future's right about being able to fly the Ragnarok through the wall, wheras you can't walk through it. The game was probably programmed not to let anything but the Ragnarok through, so as to prevent possibly screwing up the story if someone found a way to get the Garden over there.
I suppose you could consider it a bug. It's the type of thing that happens a lot in games, though not as much now as it did in Nintendo 64 and Playstation games. I don't know much about coding, but my guess is that the developers simly didn't make an object un-passable. For instance, in the old Mario Kart 64, if you rammed one cart into another, you could knock it through the wall. It's really quite a common problem in 3D titles, and not one to overanalyze.
question one.who cares?
question two.does it realy matter that much?
question three.can someone close the second thread he made about this?one is enough.
i completely agree with boys from the dwarf lol. i think this isn't worth being a topic to argue or discuss about, because it's probably just something that the game designers decided is not important, and ur not even supposed to think about it lol. it's just there. no importance to it, no bug, no meaning. just something to make the game not a pain in the @$$ lol.
correct me if i'm wrong, but the only barriers i remember are the ones on the edge of the continent, and it's not like you could just waltz off the continent if they weren't there. i think they were intentionally left up by the programmers to remind you that Esthar is still sealed off from the rest of the world even though Squall and the others got through with no trouble. i can understand what SoSD is talking about though.Quote:

That's why I think it's most likely that the Ragnarok was the only thing programmed to pass through, just in case the player found a way there somehow.Quote:

That would make no sense.After all the Ragnarok can pass over the wall so there is no need for this.
And the second poll is not a copy.I changed an important word.Since you voted without understanding the question itself a new poll was needed.
I will delete THIS ONE if you want.
Do you think this pointless topic will close if we all just say it is a bug?
I think the ragnarok is perfectly able to go through barriers. It can go through atmospheres at blazing speeds, and it even broke through teh shields on the lunatic pandora, as I've pointed out at some point xD
The shield on the Lunatic Pandora is not comparable to the Esthar barrier because while the former is some sort of energy field, the latter is a solid construction consisting of metal(?) plates.
The real reason behind this oddity is almost certainly what has been stated before: a programming convenience.
