Final Fantasy XI 360 Beta

I see. Also, you can only have one person per channel, so for multi-users you have to keep changing channels.

USB keyboard should work ok, but I want to talk. Looking forward to giving it a go though

So how does the server system work? I heard there are many servers. So do I have to choose which one I want to go on? If my mate is on Server 3, can I choose to be created in Server 3?

The game uses a world pass system to get on the same server as your mates. Someone on the server you want a character on needs to buy a unique code from an npc which you then enter when creating a character to join with him/her.

You could always just create your character and hope for the right server, it places you randomly to begin with.

I am hoping that this is going to be region free so that I can play it on my jap console. I got the jap beta free with my machine but it is totally useless as all the people on it are japanese(i know that's obvious ) and I cannot play with them naturally.

When someone get's this mag and the disc and they have an import system that they can use, can they please post and tell us if it is indeed region free.

[Daragon]

I don't think it would be region free, even if it were you'd need to register details for a japanese address etc probably.

DC if you guys from digitalhobby decide to take this up for the full version I'll get you all a worldpass to the server we all play on.

[dc-arena]

Ah nice one Darwock, sounds like a great idea, thanks mate
We will all be definetly playing on the same server throughout the BETA. We'll have to sort it out on there this week...

[Myth]

Well I'll definatly be buying the mag as soon as I see it in my local shops. So yeah I'll try getting into playing this with everyone as soon as I get my console back from M$
