On The Third Birthday Twitter, Nomura made some more tweets about Versus.

Quote: "Yesterday, we had meetings about three sections -- maps, events and battles. For the map section, I checked the problem areas that had been fixed. The staff had gone beyond the requests and and filled them with playful elements. I put in orders for additional areas as well."

Nomura got into some details about the maps:
The look of a forest that you can see once you've cleared a narrow mountain path.
Things that are required when leaving the city by moving on the roofs of buildings.
The positioning of the bookshelves in shops
How flags are standing
How the sea is handled on the world map
The roads you can see from the air ship
The length of bridges
Nomura said that he can't say too much about events without providing spoilers. He is however checking the following.
The look on a character during a short cut in a scene where he or she is leaving.
Explanation of a fathers feelings during a conversation scene.
The areas that they want to have connected seamlessly, and the areas that they want to connect via cuts.
Explanations about the heroines movements.
Nomura explains that the check list gets pretty detailed for both of these areas.

As for battles, Nomura checked up on menu areas yesterday.

Quote: "We're doing lots of trial and error on this. When you say Final Fantasy, you think of enemy damage figures flying out and showing player HP. What will we do with these in the action-heavy Versus?"

As for the Twitter activity, Nomura says that Dissidia won't be getting its own twitter account and that they are looking into the possibility of opening up an Agito and Versus account saying that if this happens, their would not be as many comments from the development staff like The Third Birthday Twitter has.

quare-Enix put up a job posting today that they are seeking a large number of planners for Versus XIII. In the listing, they are looking for a Battle Planner and Level Design Planner.

"This position asks for people with experience making PS3 and Xbox 360 package games and those with knowledge of battles and level creation."

Before jumping the gun here, this does not hint at a Versus XB360 port. Both the PS3 and XB360 versions have HD architecture that is complex and have similar planning stages and the only thing that changes is the coding. So it would only make sense to hire someone with current generation platform experience, which is quite normal in the industry.
Square Enix seems to be serious about this whole Final Fantasy Versus XIII thing. In fact, to speed up completion of the project, they're taking the extraordinary measure of actually hiring new staff.

A visual from a recruitment page off the Square Enix site:

The notice says that Square Enix is seeking a large number of planners for Versus XIII. There are two specific listings: battle planner and level design planner.

Battle planner requires such work as creation of enemy characters for an action RPG, "creation of the battle concept for each chapter, field and dungeon," formation of "enemy character algorithms, parameter settings and other data work," and management of graphics resources. This position asks for people with experience making PS3 and Xbox 360 package games and those with knowledge of battles and level creation.

Level design planner requires such work as "development of action games" and "creation of level design based off the scenario." This position requires that candidates have experience making action games.

Both jobs are out of Square Enix's Shinjuku studio.
