    1. For SE to stop staying in the shadows and let us know what's coming up.

    2. More intelligent people in the game.


    I doubt #2 will ever happen though.

      Well heres a thought and suggestion, first make your point which I assume is that FFXI is not a top ranked MMO, then ask for feedback.

        You got to define what exactly do you consider as a top-ranked MMO first. Is it about player suscription numbers alone? Or is it about quality of the gameplay and fun vs time vs reward vs acomplishment kinda thing?

        XI still remains very succesful and ranks pretty high in the MMOG charts considering how demanding the gameplay can get at times. And personally I don't think there's anything major that should be changed unless you'd like seeing a flood of WoW players and the such messing up the experience with their "modern MMOG" demands.

          Yea, cause it's not like they give us constant updates on things and plan to have two different fan festivals, one in Japan and another in California, later this month

          ....oh wait

          And btw, this game IS a top ranked MMO, despite being 5 years old. It's at least number 3 in the rankings with a solid 500k active accounts and 20+ active servers.

            FFXI just needs to be advertised more and shown to the public, because i barely ever see it in stores

              +1 on the FFXI is a top ranked MMO.

              If you mean most popular MMO, it never has been, never will be, and never should be.

                      1) Faster than light speed transportation to the battlefield with the entire party, or alliance, or linkshell.

                        I am with the people that say we need to be more in the spot light.

                        I mean look at games like World of Warcraft, it has tons of adds, a card game, and and the warcraft backing to keep it in the spotlight.

                        Look at Maplestory now, it has TV adds and a new card game coming out for it.

                        FFXI? Well we have the final fantasy but with the name like FFXI a lot of out of the know people likely think it is just another one player RPG. Plus I have not seen an add for this game in YEARS. To top it all off SE never really gives the game any kind of push, You basically have to know of this game to find it.
                        I picked it up on a whim when my Gamespot got in a random copy of the 2007 pack. One of the best things I ever did ^_^
                        SE just needs to poor a little money into PR, they will see a return.

                          I have an idea!

                          Tetra Master trading card game! BROUGHT TO REAL LIFE! ... Well, it would be a start.

                          We're gonna need some TV ads. Then, we go to Blizzard and force them to shut down WoW for a month. Their main site will redirect you to Playonline.com where you can get a free trial mailed to you in less than 24 hours.

                          Then, after that monthly trial, when players try to log back in to WoW, all they get is a notice that the sudden drop of population has caused them to go bankrupt, and WoW will be gone forever.

                          ...

                          Yeah.

                            Never heard of it.

                            Exactly what magic do you people think TV ads are going to do to FFXI?

                              Make it more PC friendly. Features such as:

                              1) an Alt-Tab function;
                              2) a toggle for higher graphics settings for machines capable of running them;
                              3) an improved default UI and the opportunity for people to create UI mods.

                              If they tossed out PS2 support then there are many other areas for improvement. For example, unlimited sales slots on the AH, increased safe size.
