The really important stuff has yet to be discussed: 1) Are they going to be bringing ballista to these new areas? 1 a) If yes, can we please get some brenner? 2) Pankration. Can we use these new mobs? Are we going to be able to battle our pankration monsters in this new continent? ^This my friends, this is the stuff that matters.

It seems they are trying to get us back to our roots and team up with others once more. A Major part of this expansion will be "Reclaiming the Land" and making it habitable by people. Which means that team work will be a major factor in doing that. Might be a nice change of pace.

I guess people won't be letting that go until the expansion comes out and people on PS2s are playing it. Considering the forum is overrun with idiots atm, and with a continued lack of moderation, I'll see you guys tonite for the 2nd job.

I guess people won't be letting that go until the expansion comes out and people on PS2s are playing it. You have to keep in mind the size of Europe and America compared to the size of japan. A quick google search says that Japan is about the size of montana(shown below) so if you look at that it's a lot easier to distribute ps2 disk in that small environment then it would be to distribute said disk throughout America or Europe which is most likely why they won't release the disk version here for the ps2. While it does suck for ps2 users there is potential that perhaps with enough community input they may consider releasing ps2 disk in America through an online only order through their site, but you may end up having to pay 60 dollars for it to cover the cost of such a small production line. Unless they decide to put all version of said expansion onto the japanese disk, then you could just order the japanese disk and choose EN addition. Then they would just have to make sure the ps2 disk is region free. They knew that HD Loader would happen. Eventually (2003) an European hacker made HDLoader and SCEE completely scrapped any chance of a European release of the Hard Drive and by obvious reasons, FFXI. Offline

Lakshmi.Stfutaru said: » The last one's Dhalmel Stew and Iron Bread. that looks freakin delicious. would definitely need a bigger bowl I think in terms of PS2, it's about time people that are not in Japan upgrade to an actual real system to play this game on. It's not like 360's are actually expensive any more, and are a good option for those unable to afford a decent PC. I'm not trying to be mean to those using the PS2, but if the new expansion won't be released on PS2 outside of Japan, then they don't have much choice if they want to play it. Perhaps SE will make it a downloadable expansion for PS2 users?
Anyway, the new job they have announced doesn't really make me excited, we have enough jobs that use magic, special abilities, buff others etc. I think it's time we had another job that has a bit of clout, but can also be a good soloer. I am quite looking forward to any new missions and gear that will come out of this expansion. I'm thinking they won't sell the hard copy CD's for PS2 outside of Japan, but PS2 users will still be able to buy the content and download it to their PS2 to play on.
It's not about phasing the PS2 out, as we know it will still be set to PS2 levels since JP's will be playing on it. It's about availability for the disks. Everybody by now has a Square Enix account, so has access to a computer in some form. Also, the PS2 users will still be downloading this content when they update it for the new expansion. For those that missed the earlier concert performance from yesterday (the Nana Mihgo's trio) they put up a youtube link to it...
...sorry in advance if this was already posted somewhere, just thought I'd share as it was pretty awesome. ^^ Where is the link to the stream? (when it starts up again)
