PS2 limitation new Zone solution.

[NightDagger]

Exactly what i was saying with new zone for none-PS2 user, and i find this fair enough since 92% player base are not on PS2/PS3. I still think is less brutal then totally tell them that SE don't support them at all.

Of course that will cost SE $$$ for development, but they don't have to redo a complete new game with 100 new zone, just 2~3 new zone as beta-release would be already a net progress. And if is not perfect day 1 (as it was the case of 14) who care? We still have our old zone without bug available to play. In the end i am sure that would increase player base of FFXI which is sadly maybe not anymore they prio with 14

Not trying to flam or troll, just That JP Button site has to be off. It stats that 30% of JP users are playing on PS2. but it is only 6%? must be old data or they are saying hardly any JP's play lol

Just something I read & have a hard time believing.

Oh and SE stated last year that FFXI will be fully supported until 2013 & they have already got new full expansion in the development. After 2013 they do not what will happen, it will depend solely on the player base at that time.

So this means that they have zero intention of eliminating the PS2 & are still goingto continue to work around there limitations. (I will search for the press release this is stated in, I know it was one from when FFXIV was getting ready for Alpha Testing)

That 30% statistic is from 2 years ago, from a survey. I wouldn't take that seriously at all.
That "expansion pack" is Abbysea I'm about 95% sure on that, considering that was over a year ago.

Tough to say cause the first Abyssea was already out with the second following soon. But I also can not confirm whether it is or is not.
