Dissidia’s Multiplayer Mode Explained In Latest Famitsu

The upcoming issue of Weekly Famitsu has another 6-page feature on Dissidia Final Fantasy, where Cloud and Sephiroth were introduced and there are plenty of new details on the Communication Mode (scans after the jump).
The article starts with two pieces of artworks from Amano illustrating the Cosmos and Chaos. In their EX Modes, Cloud is seen wielding the Ultima Weapon while Sephiroth looks powerful as ever with One-winged Angel. The developers also shared their concept behind the two, Cloud is “Smash & Blow” and it’s “Blade Master” for Sephiroth.
As the menu would tell, the game features plenty of customization options and the latest character to get her own personalized look is Tina (Terra), who spots a green hair in the report.
Moving to the Communication Mode (Ad-Hoc Party is supported), which doesn’t has much information before but turn out to be as feature packed as the game itself. Screens of the Online Lobby, which can accommodate up to 16 players, were shown to explain it’s various options. Players can make their own profiles and store as Friend Card which can then be used as their identity in the lobby. You can keep up to 50 Friend Card (newest card will replace the oldest one if that amount is exceeded) and one way to boost that number is to turn your PSP into Sleep Mode, the game will start collecting Friend Card as soon as it detects another player who do the same (16 is the maximum number for such transfer).
Another use to the Friend Card is you don’t have to have your friends around to fight with them as it also store their Ghost data which mimic their fighting styles. Last but not least, you can set your own rules for multi-player battles.
Update: Added more information.
Update 2: IGN has translated the article too, read the pro version here :)
