Hmm sounds like SE is looking for help for FFXI. This post was recently put on the JPN forums:

Sounds encouraging if true :D

Except it's also just a patch naming scheme. XIV is at 1.19 atm, and when the overhaul hits it will be patch 2.0, simple as that.

That's true, the 2.0 is justified here.

Something something battle plan.

Perhaps they need more people to test/develop battle-related shit besides VW. ;/

[Priran]

FFXI +1, with an official windower plugin that puts a white box around the entire game

There is an upcoming content update that includes something called 'The Last Stand'. Could be related to that.

So no one's going to post the DRG notes? Or am I retarded and missed 'em?

Wanted to "jump" in here (get it?) and give our dragoons some cool tidbits on what's in store for them.

After we complete our highest priority tasks of adjusting puppetmaster, scholar, and the firepower of warrior, we would like to add on to the adjustments we made to Wyverns in the 9/19 major version update by adjusting dragoons themselves. We'll be sure to let you know all the details once they become finalized!

Also, this may not be implemented at the same time as the dragoon adjustments, but we plan on adding "Healing Breath IV" to Wyverns and increasing the number of status ailments that can be cured by "Remove Breath."

I mentioned them a few pages back sir.

[Apelila]

Snaps there it is, I looked at that date I did. Scroll must have paged down too much.

[Spira]

wow.. interesting to know they're hiring new battle planners for FFXI...
and pretty openly too..

hopefully this means more content-rich updates in the near future...

as for the whole version thing..
XI uses the version update nomenclature.. but i'll bet most people don't know FFXI's version number is like 3+ I think they affix the date to it as well, which is why u see things like 30110914_2 as the version...
probably the equivalent of a 3.0+ already.

[Forte]

Kinda surprised they are still hiring for this game. Guess we're keeping FFXIV afloat.

[Septimus]

Expanding FoV and GoV.

You will all be happy to know that we will be expanding the FoV/GoV content to other areas. We'll be announcing the specific timing in the future, but we'll first be implementing this content on the test server once it is ready.

[Slycer]

Is Camate commanding us to be happy? You WILL all be happy to know....

No, I really couldn't care less.

At this point, the system basically needs to be in all non-Abyssea zones. I know for dungeons, the 5m repops help with trials, key farming, or whatever, and while some people prefer Abyssea EXP for good reason, alternatives aren't a bad thing. Still can't say I'm happy about the piss poor drop rate on good/unique casket items since I can never get what I want in 8+ hour attempts, but c'est la vie.

But yeah, it's kind of like the moogles in Selbina/Mhaura at this point. Nice to have, but probably too late for most to give a shit.

I don't think that was so much an imperative sentence as it was declarative. But I was not an English major.

New youtube channel page;

nothing really noteworthy other than you can view the opening movie in decent quality.



and the promo video for Sagasinger which went under, at least, my radar

Spoiler: show

When I heard about it I assumed someone was quitting and they were looking for a replacement.

/shrug could be a new guy I guess.

Neither was I, though at least in the contractese of my career field, 'shall' would be the term used to command us.

[Forte]

At this point all they can do is demand, since begging and pleading didn't work. Maybe next they'll try actually doing the right thing.

It's called a figure of speech, not a literal statement.

Trying to get our post count up I see.

So GoV/FoV is the only real "new" content. It's sad hopefully they'll come up with something big soon like Abyssea/Expansion. I'm curious though how much their development is being held back by supposed limitations or whether SE just doesn't want to sink much money into FFXI at this point.

New blood would be great at this point. Also it's very encouraging that with FFXIV they're legitimizing plug-ins and add-ons because it actually shows they're letting go of the old retarded ideas held on to from their old MMO development.
