Prominent People

None of those 'quotes' have been cited, so I have deleted this section. It sounds like vandalism to me. --82.1.253.66 (talk) 22:47, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Discussion page/Additions to article

What happened to the discussion page? It looks like someone deleted everything, but I'm new to participating in wikipedia so maybe I'm wrong.

Pertaining to the article, it should be clarified whether or not the PS2 version and Windows version use the same servers, I.E. can PS2 version owners play with Windows version owners? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Darktangent (talk • contribs) 03:54, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

All players play on the same servers regardless of the platform that they're running the game with (Windows, PS2, X-Box 360). If players were segregated to different servers based on their platform, then I think it might be appropriate to mention that. But because it's not, I don't think that it needs to be added. --Junior612 (talk) 00:20, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

May want to start adding to plot of new additions in the game since new Abyssea Battle Field Add-ons have seperate story/world from main storylines. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.250.2.10 (talk) 19:15, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Uematsu picture

I have a problem with presenting a big picture of Uematsu on the page when most of the game (when including expansions) is composed by Mizuta. I know Uematsu composed the main theme, but Mizuta is doing all the work. Give credit where credit is due. --Kaleb.G (talk) 19:07, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

I agree with that as well. To my knowledeg however there is no free image of Mizuta available though if you wanted to replace itOttawa4ever (talk) 21:49, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

I think either of these would do nicely. http://squarehaven.com/media/naoshi_mizuta//mizuta_02.jpg http://vgmdb.net/db/assets/portraits/610-1257602639.jpg —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.53.116.102 (talk) 20:50, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

I don't know enough about FFXI to integrate this into the article, but it'd make a nice addition. ZeaLitY [ DREAM - REFLECT ] 19:26, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Time for a thorough going over

I came to this article interested in the reception the game had received. In checking the final paragraph of the lead I found two unsourced statements and an error. If this is representative of the article as a whole, I think the time has come for an expert to give the article a thorough going over to maintain its FA prestige.

2011 Earthquake effects

Square-Enix has shut down FFXI, nominally for a week, as part of the energy conservation efforts being asked of companies in Japan, though it may be longer. This is/will be a major part of this game's history and perhaps even MMO history too and is definately worth noting. It's the first time FFXI has ever been shut down for more than a day (it may have been down for about 1 full day with the 2010 server merges). http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/polnews/news20541.shtml

There is also talk that with the potential ongoing power issues thru the summer, Square-Enix may need to host the game's servers at a backup site outside Japan. Any news like that would be posted on their FFXI website and if they do that, that should be noted in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.176.143.0 (talk) 07:34, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
