    Fan festival Starts today!

    I think that today is just the registration although I may be mistaken, so we probably won't get any answers or big unveilings today. I'm hoping that over the course of the fan festival they lied before and there is a 3rd new job which is a tank, they reveal exactly how DCR and SCH will work, they announce the various extreme job adjustments, show more info about WoTG, they have their dev team defeat AV, and more. What do you guys think?

    The "Special Event" that everyone things will be a job announcement doesn't happen until Saturday night. Today's only registration, and tomorrow has contests, a developers' panel, and people playing the new jobs.

    If it's anything like last years, the "Special Event" would be a Star Onions performance. They had one as the closing event last year - I still remember the rendition of the Yuhtunga/Yhoator Jungle music they did, too.

    Part of me is hoping it isn't, since it makes my travel plans a lot easier if we leave after the Developer Panel instead of the Special Event, but I wouldn't miss a Star Onions performance if I had the opportunity to see it.

    I still think the "big" annoucment will not be new job(s) but instead "windowed mode."

    which of course nobody will actually use and instead still use windower.

    Or, maybe a compromise. Maybe every will use the official windowed mode, but then windower could eliminate their window capability and just supplement with console and plugins.

    Re: Fan festival Starts today!

    I really dont think that a windowed version of the game is going to be their big WoTG announcement. That doesn't have anything to do with the actual expansion pack. It also only effects 1/3 of the systems that play FFXI. What a boring big announcement that would be. Its like "Ok heres our biiiiig announcement, we know that you who play FFXI on the PC use third party windowers so drum roll please... we're including a windowed version of the game with WoTG!!" Its most likely going to be a job announcement or just something that was absolutely not known about the expansion before.

    If windowed mode is a big announcement at the fan festival, they obviously don't have much planned for this expansion.

    Or it could be "all level 1 mobs now occasionally have the chance to drop Ridill 2-3 times"

    I'm sure I'm not the only one who is hoping that it's the AV video.

    I'm not. The AV video won't be an announcement. I want it to be something big regarding WoTG. They announced puppetmaster at fan festival before ToAU. I mean basically the point of the festival is to show off the expansion one last time, and to have some questions answered. Everything else is just fluff.

    I doubt there's anything big to post yet. Today was just supposed to be registration.

    I'm here at fanfest, boo for having to pay extra $10 per day for internet connection T_T

    Only registration tonight as far as I can tell, bought my lunch tickets for next two days and wandered around a bit, but I had my Assault static group and had to come back to my room ^^; Gonna head back downstairs now and try to meet some people before my Limbus group starts.

    I can't unlock my Nomad Cap yet T_T might have to wait until FanFest is over...

    Re: Fan festival Starts today!

    I'm guessing it has to do with JP midnight :\

    kinda panicked when I entered the code the 10 times I tried (making painfully sure I had entered it correctly each time... I had a few beers in me, couldn't be 100% sure I didn't fat finger the thing.)

    if it doesn't work at 9AM, though, I'm gonna be upset.
