I didn't really get into this one. The graphics are outdated. Even with Mog Tools being tweaked. The game itself
is just outdated. They really should stop making expansions for it. What I wanna know is.....when are they going to start
developing a new Final Fantasy Online game?

Oh yeah sure, so they should just close the game because it wasn't released in the past 2 years!
Maybe you'll have a new Final Fantasy online in around 10 or 15 years, if Square-Enix doesn't close before that.

Refer to the other post below.
As for the graphic, no it isn't outdated. Its use the same graphic engine of FFXII if you did not notice. You could also tweak the graphic itself and set it to perfectly smooth.
The graphic the game have on xbox360 or even my pc actually make it even better then the newer MMORPG such as "the sword of new worlds"
I would say it is even better then games like everquest + vanguard overall. Beside there won't be another FF online anytime soon because they could still continue adding story to this one.
Maybe its your idea of graphic that isn't up-to-date.

If you want the game to look better try the tips here http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/Graphics made a really big improvement to the way the game looks. I'd post a screenshot, but I'm at work and don't play it on this PC.
Well my biggest gripe was, when I played, there was no menu where you could just switch to your screen resolution.
I mean seriously. You shouldn't have to even "tweak" registries or whatever. It should be like any other MMO. Go to Video Option> Select Resolution. Since they are releasing so many expansions, maybe they should try including that
patch with it. I have a 19" Widescreen DVI display and it looked stretched and pixeled. That was AFTER using Mog Tools. Unless someone has the solution which I am most likely over looking. But even after reading through numerous
other forum threads, they all have some sort of issue with its graphics. I play WoW. So if there was a way to actually
achieve that kind of crisp in-game display, then let me know.
But starting anew would be a better idea. And BTW....
..........FFXI looks NOTHING like FFXII as far as graphics.
"Here's your lvl 45 [Cap of the Dunce]. It'll add +10 more to your Stupidity Attribute."
First you must realize, FFXI is made for ps2 as well.
Do you think they would add a resolution size menu for PS2 when you playing on TV? These option are only for your convinence. You have to keep in mind this game is for ps2 as well PC.
Also keep in-mind, the graphic is tweakable on PC NOT ps2. They are keeping the graphic that way because it match pc to ps2 so people won't all buy a PC copy.
Also, FFXI's graphic is SAME as FFXII, if you ask 100 people, 99 will say so. Of course, there might be sightly better since they DO have to keep the FFXI 5 years ago same as Ps2...where pc 5 years ago can't come near a PS2's power yet. (or rather for avg family pc, not top of the line one)
Do you love square and triangle ? then go play WoW, to me, WoW's graphic would never come close to smooth render of FFXI even without tweaks. Have you really played it or you just trolling this forum?
If you are trolling this forum, you should know that, WoW never give a feeling of return after quitting when FFXI will always done for anyone.

Has anyone tried increasing the background resolution to, say, 2560x2048 like in the example? I was wondering how much this will actually effect the load on the graphics processor.
I see nothing wrong with the thought of a New FINAL FANTASY ONLINE. All the kids are doing it. Anyhow the MMO was successful, time for something new. I wouldn't be surprised if talks were in the works for the next one. Square will be in this business for a long time to come, why? They produce software. Their name brand is one of the more successful. If Acclaim is still kicking, I think they will be too for years.
And as far as consoles go, no matter what you believe...They tend to be a behind the curve upon release. 6 months later...BURIED UNDER IT. The PC world changes day to day, week to week. Console world changes every 5 years.
umm, Final Fantasy XI is not using the same graphic engine as FXII...
But that aside,
I believe square enix mentioned they are working on a next gen MMORPG?
If they are goin to make a new one they should learn about some of the misstakes on last online FFXI. I bought the game and after 5 hour I turned it of and uninstalled it. And since there are not may people playing it I cant be that wrong about it.
I love the concept about it though, just wish they would make a new one which is first of all better Grafix wise, and has more PC made controls.
Well as for the graphics of FFXI I'll say you are exaggerating a lot. They are pretty nice and certainly not outdated as far as artwork goes. Especially some of the weapon skills and special moves are very impressive and nice to watch.
I highly doubt they will go for a new MMO based on the FF franchise. First they have to see how the expansion will do and then they will decide.
IMO the only objective flaw that FF has is the one common to all MMO's. It's a very tank centric game with healers/buffers coming close second. With 3 classes that can viably tank (paladin, warrior , ninja) and only one that can do it consistently through all levels (paladin) I think that's the only realistic think they will need to address. Fortunately the new expansion will address it somewhat so I am kinda relieved. Other that the only other things they need to fix are minor ones and of course the way crafting works, but to that the devs just said they will need to figure how to combat RMT's before fixing it so those people won't abuse it.

they are already working on a "next-gen" MMO (PS3, 360, Vista). and it doesn't mean all that much to be based on the FF franchise. it's really not much more than a name.
there were no Tarus, Mithras or Galkas before FFXI, there were no Zilart, Kuluu, Altana, Bastok, Windurst, San d'Oria before XI either.
they only really borrow things like Chocobos (MMOs will almost always have mounts of some kind), Firaga, Curaga (Fantasy based MMOs will almost always have Elemental based damage spells and other magic spells).
an online FF does not need to be class based (as FFX, FFXII are all purely based on stats and skills).
even Summons don't have to be carried over as seen in FFT and FFXII.
there are really no limitations to making another FF MMO. the only really big departure would be if they don't want to do a Fantasy-based game.

Well FF7 and FF8 were basically sci-fi so they're not even limited to fantasy, despite the name of the series.
This whole game wasn't even up to date when it came out. It's a giant skill-free timesink. Every battle is determined before you fight the enemy, the classes don't even matter for a good 50% of the game because you can't do crap till 3 battle later and your skill thing is full. This game is just a giant japanese turd. This isn't even taking into account the graphics or the fact that all the areas are flat. EQ was years ahead of this thing and it came out years before.

Front mission online existed already, seriously, you guys need to read my other thread "Another FF online", i posted there what exactly is FF team working on currently as online game already. This thread is pretty just a repeat of that last threat.
And half of these people posting here are trolls from other MMO who trying to prove FFXI is obselete. Too bad, Everquest didn't even have half of the people of FFXI http://www.mmogchart.com/ say so. So is even everquest II who is almost dead.
Square enix know that even with a NEW FF online, it might not sell as great as the first of the series because a great example taught us that Everquest who trying to use everquest II to succeed have failed miserably.
That is why you will never see another FF online within 5 years. Even in 5 years, what graphic you expecting? i think current graphic is graphic rate is pretty at the limit, so it is smoother and run faster, is that your idea of better graphic ?
