 | | Based on this reasoning, it would appear that the soldier is better off running away regardless of who is going to win the battle. | | | That is, a player can find a set of systems of beliefs for the other players such that any history of the game along an equilibrium path is consistent with that set of systems. | | | If there is even a remote possibility that a player may make a mistake—that her ‘hand may tremble’—then no contradiction is introduced by a player's using a backward induction argument that requires the hypothetical assumption that another player has taken a path that a rational player could not choose. |

| | Also new in the gameplay is the CTB system which is the conditional turn based battle system. | | | The CTB system gives you all the time you desire before making your decision of how to attack your opponent bringing more strategy to the game rather than just quick battles. | | | The new system allows you to determine how you want your character to be which brings more options and replay value to the game. |

| | Final Fantasy X: Information From Answers.com |
| | Conditional Turn-Based Battle is very similar to ATB, except that, instead of ticking off the passing time between attacks (which in Final Fantasy IX could take up to five seconds), the game simply skips that time and lets the next person attack, leading to rapid and fluid battles. | | | The player's control over the sisters is somewhat limited; there are options in battle to command them to "Fight", "Do as you will", "Help each other", "One more time", "Go, go, go". | | | In battle, his weapon of choice is Brotherhood, the blue-bladed sword seen on the front of the game's DVD case, and his particular prowess is in hitting agile foes. |

| | The player would input all battle commands at the beginning of each combat round, which would then be carried out based on the speed rating of each character. | | | As this ranking was displayed on screen during battle, it was possible to know when a character and/or enemy would move several combat turns in advance, and to plan battles accordingly. | | | Final Fantasy XI featured a fully real-time combat system similar to that employed by the game EverQuest: when confronted with an enemy, a character would automatically perform basic physical attacks unless otherwise instructed by the player. |

| | Along with this new battle system, you were now free to switch between all characters in the game with one touch of the L1 button, and you could also change weapons and armour mid-battle. | | | The character development system was another thing to be revamped, and in this game characters didnt gain experience and grow in levels. | | | After battle they would gain Sphere Levels, which could then be used on the Sphere Grid to move around. |

| | The characters are quite memorable, the plot is intruiging, the battle system is refined, and the world well designed. | | | While some battles could be easily won, others had to be well thought out and played if success was desired. | | | The game itself, however, is good enough to go through a few more times to monitor the details you may have missed the first time, and to draw better connections after the resolution. |

| | The all-new Conditional Turn-based Battle system injects a much-needed dose of strategy into the combat, forcing you to really think your way through some of the tough boss fights later in the game. | | | Turning the notion of experience points on its ear, FFX offers a purely visual interface that you navigate using items gained primarily through battle. | | | The artificially induced panic of the constantly ticking clock from the old Active-Time Battle system is gone, replaced with the more relaxed but also more challenging CTB system. |

| | In battle, as in FF7 and 8, you'll have three characters in your active party, but for the first time, you can swap characters in battle- and any character who gets at least one turn receives full AP for taking part. | | | When an Aeon is called into battle, it stays on the battlefield and fights until dismissed or KO'ed (at which point your regular party takes over the fight again). | | | This excellent system means that you can now do what you always wanted- bring in a healer when your party gets injured, then swap them for a fighter or a mage when it's time for an all out attack. |

Please bear with me, as this is a most difficult title to evaluate. | | | Every character can now participate in every battle as well, thanks to Tsuchida's idea to allow Final Fantasy X's players to swap out any of their current combatants with either one of the four inactive reserves. |

| | And thankfully, the battle system (which they call "RTB" Real-Time Battle, which is a throwback to their single-player games which used either "ATB" Active Time Battle - or "CTB" Conditional Turn-Based - battle systems) feels like a Final Fantasy game's should. | | | The servers American gamers had access to when creating their characters were not brand new servers
we are sharing them with the Japanese whom have been playing for almost a year. | | | This just seems like poor planning on Square Enix's part, to me. It does not seem prudent to reward players struggling to learn how to play a new game with a punishment. |

| | Someone might as well... Final Fantasy X. - www.ezboard.com |
| | The Conditional Turn-based Battle system, a natural evolution of the Active Time Battle system of past installments, lends itself to more thoughtful battles. | | | With a deep, enjoyable battle system, plenty of sidequests and secrets, and some enjoyable mini-games, there is more than enough game play to satisfy any fan of the genre. | | | So, for instance, a character who casts a powerful spell could be out of the battle for several turns, while a character who just attacks could get in several actions during the interim. |

| | For additional historical emphasis, Yuna and her new team will be able to switch job-classes during battle - imagine being a knight at the start of a fight and then turning to a mage to suit your preferred strategy, and all while in the midst of impending doom. | | | This release marked the beginning of next-generation RPGs, and whether gamers took to the new battle system and sphere-grid "level-up" formula or not is immaterial, as they certainly took to the sorrowful story and enduring characters. | | | If there's a rule to the Final Fantasy series, it is this - each installment is not a sequel; each features a new world, new characters, new problems, and a completely new storyline and theme-setting. |

| | My favourite system was actually the CTB system for FFX, conditional turn based, you always knew what was going on. | | | A lot use the Active Time Battle system which gives you so much time between commands and when your time guage has filled then you get to input another command regardless of whose "turn" it is. Which is the type of RPG I prefer. | | | by turn based do you mean where you sit and enter commands from menus or do you mean where one person enters a command and then another person enters a command then another in a straight forward pattern? |

| | Which is why we were so enamored with the conditional turn-based setup in Final Fantasy X. It not only added a strategic element to battles, but also sped up combat by letting you take your turns immediately. | | | Rather then sticking with the formula established in Final Fantasy X, they rebuilt the entire game, creating an experience thats not only different from its predecessor but also altogether unique, compared with previous Final Fantasy, the combat is fast and furious new take on the classic Active Time Battle system. | | | The elaborate summons, a sacred cow, have been replaced with a system (to me) of spectacular costume changes that alter your stats and abilites on the fly. |

| | Toshiro Tsuchida, the battle system is changed from the traditional "Active Time Battle" to a new "Conditional Time Battle" system which was more turn-based and ostensibly allowed for a greater degree of strategic depth.The leveling system has also received an overhaul, with the advent of the Sphere Grid. | | | FF2 is stylistically very similar to its predecessor, using the same battle system and similar graphics (both in the original and in the remake). | | | The party travels from their home world to the destroyed world of ExDeath, where they battle his plans until the end.This game's storyline would appear to be the main basis of the original Final Fantasy anime. |
