Today I came back to XI. I wonder why...
Just wanted to ask a few questions. What do you think the chances of seeing the new UI at Vanafest?
Are security tokens necessary? Mine stopped working.
How is this game to play on 360? I play on PC at the moment but 360 might be prefarable.
And finally, can I have a linkshell? I'm on Asura :P
Oh and yay, FF11.

1. I dunno
2. You don't need to use a security token. However, disabling the use of a security token requires you to log in with your security token. If yours broke, you might need to contact customer support and prove you're the real owner of the account in one way or another.
3. Last i heard, 360 had some freeze issues in certain events, such as for example besieged. Other than that, I dunno.

Pretty sure the freeze issues were fixed recently.

Freeze issues aside, just about any PC built in the last decade will play the game better than a 360 could ever hope to.

I prefer PC myself but I do own and play both, it is not bad on the Xbox but PC will be easier if you have a decent one. The real problem you will have though is not if it plays well but rather how to obtain it, as you can see from my thread, its not exactly so easy to get your hands on.

360 use to freeze in voidwatch a bunch because of the rate people spammed WS on the boss, but its suppose to be fixed now.

Well, seems like no mention of the new UI, which is a shame. Maybe I'm expecting too much. Would be nice if it was visually different

New UI is within the next couple months, if that's what you're asking about.

But probably not for 360.

That's exciting.

Hopefully with the new Expansion, We will get new Boxed sets.

Just adding a bit to the discussion, since the devs started to do cosmetic fixes to please the PC users, I suspect they might start to branch system specific stuff so PC users will surely have a better game for them when the next expansion releases, regardless of consoles being there or not. Good grief.

Very true.
