Who think we could use a Final Fantasy XI forum. I don't know how many of you plan on buying it/playing it, but it would definetely bring more people to the forums. It would be cool to have BF members to play FFXI with. We could arrange parties and such here and meet ingame. :D I've been reading previews, reviews, and just about everything I can find on it while I've been at work today. We can discuss classes, missions, jobs, enemies, strategies, etc.
So who's with me...FFXI forum!​

Well, I guess since bf.com doesn't only deal with blizz games anymore its a possibility. Maybe start a petition once the game is out? Have people reply with their approval or something. And you can be d4 uß3RM0|>

I would say that creating an entire forum here just for Final Fantasy XI doesn't make since, I would say a general Final Fantasy forum would make more since, however, I don't even think that is a good idea even though I am one of the Final Fantasy series biggest fans, it just doesn't seem to make that forum here unless there was a whole lot of support. Then again, I don't run or moderate these forums at all so what do I know. However, I would fully be for having threads created to talk about Final Fantasy XI. I won't buy it right away because money is hard and I would still have to buy a network adaptor and I think a hard drive for my PS2 and that would add up to too much for my college money supply. However, once I do have the game I would be for talking with other people here about it since this is already a place I know and come to regularly and so do many others, it just makes since.

There could be a general discussion forum for all Final Fantasy games, but FFXI should be seperate simply because it will be online. If BattleForums wants to keep up with opposing forums, they need to move away from strictly Bliz games. CS is a good addition, but we need more than just one non-Bliz game.

Looks as though Entertainment and Chit Chat were merged. :p Didn't notice the announcement until now. :rolleyes:

Despite how addicted to the FF series I am, FFXI has never been on my list of games to get... I think Square really messed up on that one.

As far as a forum, nah... I don't think it'll last long enough (in the US).

Let's have a cake forum too! A lot of people enjoy eating cake too!

I seriously don't think it would work. An FF forum in general maybe but no.

why make a forum dedicated to a single game? not even the warcraft sc and diablo II are dedicated to one game, but the entire series. there is no point expanding so much, CS was a miostake in itself.

Why the hell not? There is a forum deticated to pretty much everything else on this forum.... why not one more? so there can be a huge debate about removing it when it fails?

If you remember the FFXI monthly fees thread a couple weeks ago,you will notice that many people will not even buy ffxi because of the large monthly fees.I don't think it would be a good idea to have an entire forum devoted to a game almost no one plays.

Yes the cost/month is still a little pricey, but hopefully Square Enix will lower the cost/month before it comes out in October ( Oct. 28th...I think). I had pretty much decided that I wasn't going to buy it, but after reading reviews and all I've changed my mind. The reason I had decided not to before was because I was under the impression that once you picked a class...u were stuck with it and would have to pay extra for another player of another class But after reading the reviews and info from the website I've read that you are able to switch classes...whenever you want! If you get tired of being a white mage...be a black mage..or whatever. You cannot change races, but I don't see that as a problem. I suppose that I should go elsewhere with this idea because I forget that most of you here are kids ;)

I wanna know what crack you're smoking. :p It doesn't make any since that Square would stop production of one of their biggest world-wide selling game series.

Okay, let me clarify what I'd like to see done...

A general forum (covering FF I-XII, X-2, CC, and FFT) where you can talk about the storylines, ask for help, or argue over which game/character is the best.

A FFXI forum where we could discuss FFXI's story, classes, races, skills, and enemy strategies. We could also set times to party with other BF members, talk about the different jobs, quest locations, and the Tetra Master card game.
...see, FFXI would need to be seperate

The PC verison is coming out in October, and the PS2 version is coming out sometime next year...maybe Febuary or March?? (...whenever the PS2 harddrive is coming out) No matter which version you play you play in the same world...that means that PS2 and PC players can play with eachother.

If nothing else, I'll see about getting a forum made for it in the Public Forums cause I know you guys would hate it if I left BF for a Final Fantasy forum. :p :p

Yeah, that would make life a little easier- I dunno, its up to the mods. But I doubt it would happen (for time being)
