Zoning/PS2/3 Freeze Issues

[Michae]

I think I can solve your problem.

Easy fix is to change this: Platform: PS2

The game is expanding and ps2 can barely handle it anymore. Its no wonder your crashing. Its like trying to play FFX on a snes. In all seriousness and only with good intentions (not being one of those gamer flamers) I would seriously say to find a new format on which to play the game. Not only are the capabilities of the ps2 lacking but they are also old machines that just cant perform like they used to.

Sorry, and also not trying to be a complete jerk, but, SE knows there are problems with PS2 and PS3. With PS2 in particular, knowing that it's in it's coffin on the way to the graveyard, SE needs to announce that they will be dropping support instead of continuing to collect money from it's users. Sure, the majority may have other platforms to play on, but there are some that don't. Not everyone can afford to buy new or refurbished X-boxes or new PC's unfortunately. In my case, I have retired my main character and one mule, but continue to want to have some fun on another mule until I quit completely. I am also speaking out for those who have paid their money over the years and can get not even the courtesy of a response in this forum. Silence is golden.

The playstations have been blackscreening/freezing.. getting stuck on npcs for years. It is not because recently added parts of the game over loaded it. While I do support a move toward pc only for ffxi's future myself even tho I play on Ps3 I do so for logical factual reasons. Not assumptions.
