Japan release before USA?

If the Japanese get this game before us… I sure hope they cant play on the same shards… Think about logging on and walking outside with all the other new players, and getting slaughtered by already developed Japanese Pks. I hope Square puts this into consideration.

hmmm…Japan getting a game before us? oh my god! ….DUH!:p

Anyway…I can see where your coming from but, i am pretty sure that you have the option to fight someone. They challenge you, then you choose to accept or not. So you wont just get ambushed by those Level 99 guys.

There isn’t any PKing in the game, read here: http://www.ffozone.com/gameplay.html

I think this makes sense… *Thinks back to days of getting pked while mining in UO*

Your right, it says no Pking, but I thought I read in a mag that you could fight someone if you wanted to. Oh well, its probably better like this.

no killing thats stupid after you get to a certin level you will all be saying whats next no killing=no fun

and i feel uur pain i was killed many a time while minning in uo

"no killing=no fun" ? you can still kill monsters can you not? Not to mention I’m sure there’s going to be pleanty of monsters that not even a level 99 can take, so you gonna try one? I think they’re going more for the co-op not the PvP. Less complaining about PvP when there is no PvP. In the other FFs you really didn’t want to kill your teammates while you were fighting that last boss now did you? I’d hope not since you kinda needed them a bit.

actually in ff9 the last boss was so easy i killed off vivi

lol i know ff9 last boss was so easy its fun to equip the worse weapon u have and beat him with out magic and summons its makes it more of a omega weapon when doing this but u dont have to kill people to make the game good and hard

*Correcting Statement Above* There is PvP, just not PKing. less complaining about being PKed ect. ect.

They should have an area where you can PK. Cuz no PKing isnt really a MMORPG.

i agree

I’d Disagree with that, but I’m sure most people that like to play MMORPGs would agree. so they probably should..

Yes there should be a pking zone but no Trammell and Fellucca type system(To those UO players) I think you should be able to choose if your hostile, and be able to attack others.

😡 You guys are all getting off the subject!!!!!

😀 Also the game is going to be releasd at the same time in both Japan and the U.S some time in May or June.

Sorry Son of Rah but actually no its not, it will not be released in the U.S. utill mid or late fall.

Try late-spring to early-summer….

PSM magazine- "with the beta-testing already going on in Japan, the release of FFXI should be soon. Baring any problems players can expect the game to hit sometime by the end of the year."

Game informer the magazine- "The Japanese launch has been delayed, but it should occur sometime this spring a for the US date, Square Soft is still trowing around possibilities. The talk is that it cold be as late as 2003."

thank you very much.

Deepest appologies, Trance Kuja :Sad:

All I know is that it better come out November at latest. Theres no other games I really want until then, and GTA3 cant even hold me off til then. Im trying to get 100% in GTA…
