    Announcing Coverage of VanaFest 2012!

    Just in case you all missed the official announcement on PlayOnline, the North American Community Team will be making an excursion over to the far eastern lands of Yokohama, Japan to cover VanaFest 2012 scheduled to take place June 23rd-24th!

    It's been two years since Devin and Matt from the North American Community Team set out on their adventure to Tokyo to cover VanaFest 2010 for the community. They were able to bring all of the hottest news straight from the development team to the adventurers around the world. In the two years since then, FINAL FANTASY XI has evolved by leaps and bounds and the level cap was raised to 99. Well, they too have leveled up to the max to bring you even bigger and better coverage this year.

    Yes, the intrepid duo plan to set out once again on a quest to bring everyone the hottest news, craziest revelations, jaw-dropping-est... things that happen at VanaFest 2012! You better believe that there will be tweets. You can guarantee that there will be videos. And you can bet that there will be contests!

    Stay tuned for all of the details as we unravel their plans for the future!
    What this didn’t mention is that we will actually be live streaming the whole thing and giving Community Team digests covering the information and exciting things taking place at the event!

    Hope you are all looking forward to this and we will be giving you updates as the event draws near!

    From what I gather, Vanafest site states that you need a JP POL account and be living in Japan to be able to buy tickets. JP only, sorry.
    At least we'll get pics and videos of everyone having fun, heh.

    ※These pets will have a base of Treasure Hunter I, but by using equipment that has “Pet: Treasure Hunter +” the effect will become stronger.

    Also one other thing I would like to add!

    VanaFest 2012 will be taking place (in JST) from 9:00AM-5:00PM on 6/23 (Saturday) and 9:00AM-4:00PM on 6/24 (Sunday), which means that for our North American audience, the event will be starting on Friday, June 22 at 5PM and on Saturday, June 23 at 5PM (PDT). Hopefully this will be a convenient time for our players to tune-in to the live stream and check out the event!

    They are making me work behind-the-scenes because they are afraid I might take all of their spotlight!

    I won't be by my lonesome at the NA office though, Okipuit joined "Team Community" so we'll be tag-teaming all of the back-end work while Camate and Bayohne are at VanaFest.

    Hey everyone,

    That's right! Your new Community Rep Okipuit here to make sure all news and updates makes it quickly and safely to you.

    Just a quick introduction:
    I've been playing FINAL FANTASY XI avidly since NA PS2 launch and have a lot of fond memories growing up as a little Tarutaru. I've shared many laughs, epic adventures, and battles with friends/LS mates whom I still speak with today. Although, no one knows my secret identity. I could be in your very LS! (I guess you can say I enjoy playing Ninja most.)

    Through my recent training and all the VanaFest 2012 information trickling in, rest assured that there is a lot of exciting news on the horizon. I can't wait to share all of this information and clarify any inquiries you guys have for the dev team.

    Anyways, it's nice to meet you all and see you online.

    -Okipuit
