56k?

[Kei]

I've heard from a few people that 56k runs FFXI fine. But then again, I've heard from others that it runs horrible, I will never NOT be lagging, and the game's framerate is just horrible. I want some honest answers. From people that have played it on 56k I would like. Just wondering how it will run on my comp.

I have a 2.66ghz Pentium 4 Processor, 512 MB of RAM, and a GeForce4MX Video Card. But...I have 56k. That's the only downside in my opinion. Anyways, input?

The game runs the same on broadband and dial-up.

56k runs fine I saw it in my friends house, just like my DSL speed :o but his computer is crappy so graphics are pretty bad :sweat:

I've got 56k and my game runs fine. It only slightly lags at times, but you can barely notice it. and sometimes the game might get laggy around crowded places like the auction house, but not too often. The only thing that you might find different is that it takes you longer to zone.

No you just put the data that you need in to the ps2 model thing and it can go online whit out the computers help. But aol dosint work that well on it the best one iv seen is yahoo which is what im geting to play it. All some isps dont work on the ps2 modems but aol dos.
