This topic is for all you TWGers that are intrested/planning on playing FFXI. It will be a sticky for a while. I beleave me and Tage are the only ones currently plannning on playing at the start of the release. If there are any others please post here. So we need to decied what server we're going to play on and wich kingdom to start in.
A list of servers can be found here:
http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/server/index.htmland the three kingdoms are here:http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/location/
the dutchery is not a playable kingdom as of now.
a breif summery of the 3 are:
The Kingdom of San d'Oria-San D'oria home of the Elvaan. Is a kingdom of warrior and knights. Think castle and times of long past...*Middle Ages* It is a city surrounded by forest and plains and the city itself is surrounded by a wall since it is a city inside a castle. It is a place for good weapons and such
The Republic of Bastok-Bastok is the techno town. It is a place for arms and armor as well and is the home of the Hume and Galka. It is on a mountain and is surrounded by mountains and desert.
The Federation of Windurst-Windurst is the city of mages. As that states it is a place where you can get a lot of spells cheaper than anywhere else since they are just flowing with magic. It is also a city bound with nature. *think BIG TREE* It is the home of Tarutaru and Mithra.
you can switch alliance anytime but you have to make it to that kingdom wich is realy hard for characters below level 20.
I plan starting oct 29th (which is the day it arrives in stores) or 30th so I'd like to know where to make my character(s).
I'm not sure when world passes will come into effect, but it dose appear that it will start form day one. So I'm not sure how this will affect things. Also Square-Enix has made it so one world pass will work for 5 people.
