I've heard that FFXI runs fairly smoothly on a 56k. There are a few slow downs in town and stuff, but thats it. Remember, this is what I heard, I don't know for a fact.

Apparently all Internet connections whether they be broadband or otherwise will all be converted down to that of a 56K connection, which will mean that loading time before starting the game is about 2/3 times longer then what it normally would be, but once it is completed the game runs LAG FREE as no player communicates with any server faster then another player... This is because on each Server they plan to run FFXI on, they have placed a network filter on the connection to even it all out.

Lag is unnoticable on any kind of connection you use with FF11. I wouldn't worry if you've got dial-up or broadband.

wow.. i didnt know that saken. thats cool. thanks for the info

You don't know what a relief that is to all us 56kers out here. Most of the time we're left in the dust by the fast speeds of Broadband, but Square is trying to get everyone on an equal level so the game will sell to everyone. Smart idea if you ask me.

:p what about 36k'ers out there?
I guess not, well, I'm getting my dad to get broadband, so i should be ok
