Announcing the "VanaFest Golden Gobbiebag Giveaway"! (NA)

[Naturebeckles]

It's possible that they realized that 1 prize attempt per square-enix account does not mean 1 prize attempt per player, or are my wife and I the only people who have more than one POL id on a square-enix account?

No. You're not the only one. My husband and I did it too.. .pretty much as soon as they came out with SE Accounts and before realizing what it would have meant for the future as far as having both POL ID's on one SE account. We get screwed every time with one of this events as we have to literally take turns to see who might win a prize. Would be nice if they undid the undo-able and allowed me to switch my POL ID to the SE Account I made to play FFXIV (back when it was free).

ok i like to point out, the info on the expansion is brand new and that just because sales of ps2 games are kinda obsolete does not mean SE doesn't have a plan not to support it on the ps2. I for 1 think its doubtful they will HAVE a physical dvd expansion for the ps2, but I believe there will be a 1-time registration code just like the add-ons and it will be downloadable. You can completely install FFXI w/o the game disks expansions of CoP, ToAU, and WotG, but it will take a longer amount of time to download the version updates. all the game disks do is cut the time down to download the files. SE would not expand the minimum requirements of the ps2 unless they had plans of future expansions or fixing bugs they could not fix due to limited space.

There will be no PS2 Expansion for any region other than Japan. Go to the main forum to discuss. There is an angry thread there.

Of course they had to increase the hdd space on ps2 everywhere because even without the expansion the game will be getting updated regardless. If you don't install an expansion pack you can still see ninjas and scholars running around wearing gear from other expansions areas and stuff. They have to add all that data to the game thats why everytime there has been an expansion they have a huge update and day long maint a few days before it goes live. The ps2 players will still be able to play the same game and see the same things they just won't be able to access the new areas or anything that requires going there.

so more importantly then all this "should of done this" banter, when is the actual participation date, where to fill out survey? etc etc.
everyone with all your great ideas, please apply to work at SE kthx

All i was saying is just because theres no announcement now for na/eu players to not have an expansion on ps2, does not mean there will not be an announcement ever. They may announce down the line in the future before the release. And if not, its SE's loss on money. I was not trying to be angry about it.

Greetings,

I’d like to take a moment to clarify which platform Seekers of Adoulin will be available on for those that have been asking. We will continue to support North American FINAL FANTASY XI players on the PlayStation 2, Xbox 360 and PC (Windows) platforms. However, FINAL FANTASY XI: Seekers of Adoulin will only be available on the Xbox 360 and Windows platforms in North America when it is released in 2013.

My point is withdrawn with the exception of the fact they lost money on ps2 users and theres always the possibility they can change their mind (tho very doubtful). Oh well, I'm a PC user. But its very disappointing to see every1 who is a ps2 user and still couldnt afford a pc thats compatible to play ffxi get screwed.

Any Idea when this event will be happening?
