Version Update Notice (04/25/2008)


We are pleased to announce that the next FINAL FANTASY XI version update has been scheduled to take place in early June. The addition of compelling new missions to the Wings of the Goddess storyline will form the heart of this update. Other content includes a new ranking system for Campaign, battle-related tweaks encompassing jobs and merit points, and additions and adjustments to fellows and chocobo raising.

Stay tuned for the latest information on the above additions and changes


Even though its "right on time", it seems a lot sooner than it should be.


EDIT: Galka MNK/NIN/SAM/PUP wielding a Kama



I had a signature, but I got lazy and stopped caring.

Re: Version Update Notice (04/25/2008)
You're always beating me to these! curse this EST


^^ Yay merit tweaks! I wonder though, does this mean SCH and DNC are already getting their category 1's? Maybe they'll add some new ones or change some for the other jobs?

This "New ranking system" for campaign puzzles me though. They're not talking about adding more ranks (which is what I'm still waiting for) but rather it sounds more like they're going to tweak how you earn points again. Maybe they'll scrap this whole retarded notion that you need to be evaluated every 30 days!

maybe you can just get something like "Major General" for a title like the TAOU stuff...I just can't say because we don't have any real details...

Re: Version Update Notice (04/25/2008)
Hmm, maybe I missed something, but I didn't see the part where they mention the DX9 update (again).

Re: Version Update Notice (04/25/2008)
They should make Campaign Battles more frequently first before tweaking anything else >.<

Wonder what jobs are going to be tweaked this time around, hopefully RDM so those threads can die

I guess I'll be hiding behind Age of Conan until the update.
Nothing interesting usually behind any of these updates. Well not anymore at least.

Re: Version Update Notice (04/25/2008)
I am guessing: Maybe S-E think it is a bit late for porting DX7 to DX9 when M$ is focusing on DX10.

Re: Version Update Notice (04/25/2008)
Is DX7 -> DX9 even going to make a huge impact on the game overall?

Not so much now that nVidia fixed their drivers.
