Final Fantasy XI 10th Ann. + FF 25th

[Camiie]

Mog Tablets called and said Hello.

I'm well aware of Mog Tablets... /sigh... No need to be a smart aleck.

Server-wide events with substance would be nice. Server-wide events that require me to chase a massive Buffalo around West Ronfaure don't interest me.

Then what WOULD interest you? That's the kind of input that would be helpful here.

I was having problems on Linux too - random freezes every now and again that sounded suspiciously like the XBox problems they were trying to fix - but I managed to solve it by going back to an older version of Wine and now the game works okay again. Might be worth a try?

The issue is not that the game freezes; it completely crashes due to an unhandled exception and it has been confirmed by other uses as well, and some of us have been debugging it already quite a bit. I think it will soon be fixed.

It can be at least mostly avoided by disabling the battle-effects. I did a Dynamis-run and more without a single crash that way. With the effects on, I doubt that would have been possible.

I quiet enjoyed the introduction of Outpost warping. The Huge Walking Tree warping all over and the first server to kill it got a prize. That was fun.

So, I log into Final Fantasy XI last night, and I noticed the logos for the 25th anniversary for Final Fantasy and the 10th anniversary for Final Fantasy XI.

So, what I want to know is what will the celebrations in Final Fantasy XI consist of?

Will we see something really special here? Something to look forward to?

Let us know!

We can't announce anything yet, but the teams around the globe are working to make sure that the 10th year anniversary is a year to remember and we think you all will enjoy some of the fun things we have planned!

As Keyln pointed out, the last update added some new additions to the FFXI title screen - the FINAL FANTASY XI 10th Anniversary logo and the FINAL FANTASY 25th Anniversary logo!

We created some logos/scripts to add to your website/blog if you'd like, which you can find below!

*Currently the large size links to the Japanese FFXI site, but we'll get that fixed!

Also if you'd like to put the small banner in your forum signature using BBcode... Simply link to http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/ (using the forum URL tags) and use the IMG link: http://www.playonline.com/ff11/10th/s.png

For example (just remove the spaces inside the brackets):

I saw there was a vana fest planed for june why has there not been anything said on the NA side about that?

All these secrecy and vagueness about the Anniversary... they better have something really, really, really AMAZING to announce soon and not just your usual fan service with useless cosmetic items for decoration purpose only. Though I would not be surprised if the actual announcement is underwhelming, nothing new or exciting and just a rehash warmed over leftover content with the same lame excuse of PS2 limitation, not enough time, and have no team to do more than necessary. Or maybe they will announce that they are closing server and let us play offline with our character, as our reward for being loyal in the last 10 years and pretty much telling us to take it or move to FF14.

Or they could do the unthinkable, announce new expansion that is a crossover from past FFs games - some sort of time paradox and we get to interact with characters from all past FF games similar to Dissidia series and they actually learn from their past mistakes in 2011-2012 and released the Abyssea Version 2.0 - Dissidia version - courtesy of Yoshi and team!!

I see this more of going out with a bang than anything.
