FFXI mini-expansion arriving on Sunday News
PC News by Robert Purchese
Square Enix has said FFXI mini-expansion A Crystalline Prophecy - Ode of Life Bestowing will launch on 8th April.
The Masato Kato-scripted scenario was unveiled earlier this month and will cost GBP 7.99 / EUR 9.99 to download. Pre-orders can apparently be placed via the PlayOnline store, although we found no listing nor mention when we looked.
A Crystalline Prophecy is based around a giant primordial crystal in the sky that causes unexplained events to occur on the world of Vana'diel below. Players helping see of this new threat will uncover the secrets of the world and be rewarded with one of three unique pieces of fancy armour.
A Crystalline Prophecy will be the first of three mini-expansions: A Moogle Kupo d'Etat - Evil in Small Doses, and A Shantotto Ascension - The Legend Torn, Her Empire Born will follow later this year.
Square Enix is expected to finally unveil its next major MMO at E3 this year, but the six-year-old FFXI is still going strong, with half a million subscribers worldwide.

The collection series of boxesets (07/08) normally pop up in places like GAME for about £15-£20 they have the current expantions, i've been back twice but it's been very unforgiving for new players in the past with the over inflated market in game thanks to the gold sellers ealier on and the fact it's VERY focused group based leveling.

Here is a picture of my Playonline window, the expansion is only mentioned after clicking play upon logging in. http://i42.tinypic.com/oiyv0n.jpg |

Economy is much improved now thanks to the special anti-RMT taskforce SE setup awhile back.
Its also a lot easier than it used to be in pretty much every way. The level-sync system is brilliant in that you can cap your party levels-down to that of the lowest member, gear scales with it too (to an extent) so its a lot easier to build a party at low/mid levels. I came back a few weeks ago, and I have to be honest in that the changes have really impressed me. |
