Bye PS2, was nice knowing you!

And, looks like just when I thought I was out, they drag me back in! 2013 is a long ways off still and I've only been out of game since March, but maybe when I reactivate next week I'll stick around for the time being...

Lastly, every single person who uttered the words "they can't do expansions anymore" and "they'll never do away with PS2" ...... owned. This has given me new faith that they have heard our cries of passion for this game. Today I can say for the first time in a very long time, I look forward to the future in FFXI.

Being they haven't given a release date for it.. I think it's safe to assume that it will be available before Dec 31st, 2013.
That is if the world doesn't end or they push it back.

I'm thinking late spring early summer release.. but then again no one knows

Only in NA though (and EU too, I guess), right? We still have ps2 limitations due to its popularity in Japan Smiley: frown

After reading the interview Elmer posted, I'm going to say they are not dropping PS2 support.

Quote:
FinalFantasy.de: There is no version of Final Fantasy XI for the PS3. Are there any plans to develop one? In Europe, there are no HDDs available for the PS2.

A: At the moment, there are no plans to develop a PS3 version. They already have the PS2 game, and they plan to continue supporting the PS2. They don't feel it would be the best use of resources to work on the PS3. Unfortunately, Square Enix is not a hardware manufacturer. They would love to release a HDD, but there is nothing they can do.

I can't see them dropping ps2 support after just telling all the ps2 people to upgrade their hardware to nearly double the size capacity or gtfo.

Just to play devil's advocate:

We know, for a fact, SE is releasing the expansion in Japan, so they're obviously not dropping support. Since the ps2 was reaching its HDD limit, it needed an update. Then, isn't it simply easier to increase the file capacity of FFXI for all ps2 users rather than just those running the JP version of the game? Inconvenient, maybe, but certainly possible.
