XBox360 vs PS3

[palerider7777]

Well to be fair to the PS3. When I bought my PS2 HDD (with Final Fantasy XI) FFXI took nearly HALF of the HDD up with the base program and patches.

With more and more content in gaming being "download content" and with games needing more and more space because of HD quality video feed we are going to need more than just 20gigs for sure. Hell standard in an average store bought PC now is 80gigs...

well on my 360 i have ffxi loaded on there and if i dl 3 demos i have 1 gig left so 20gigs is not much when u have games like ffxi

This has nothing to do with the consol wars, but palerider I have that painting above my bed and on my binder for school. Draws attention, and the opening and closing of the eyes is trippy.

in my opinion theres ups and downs to both consoles.. the only reason i didn't get a ps3 is i like 360 better in general, but if i was an rpg fan, i would of gotten a ps3.

Midgardsormr?

and damn too bad =/ i play on valefor.. i've yet to find anyone on here that plays on my server

i was: 60 rdm, 50 whm, 29 blm, 25 nin, 20 smn (with all smn's minus fenrir and diablos) and everything else between 5-10...

also had 70 woodworking, 29 alchemy, 20 goldsmithing, 10 blacksmithing, 10 fishing....

millions in gear (i have a 75 smn/whm/rdm to help me out with gil and items)...

then i decided for the third time i was quitting for good, but this time i sold my account... about a year of playtime as well...


like 9 months later that friend finally talks me back into playing...

currently i'm 46 rdm/blm... with crappy gear and no crafting skills...

sucks being a noob again =/


btw let me know when you get 55-60... i can show you how to solo as a rdm and solo toughs (very toughs if you're feeling brave/need skill ups) ... it's a damn good thing to do while LFP... shit, as 'needed' as rdm is, i could still manage to get half my level waiting (doesn't take forever, it is slower then partying, but it still brings in some good exp, not like you spend 20 mins on one enemy)

thats my problem it takes 4ever to lvl up by urself i have a friend thats lvl 70rdm and lvl 50 on everything else and he keeps tellin me he will help me lvl but he is always off doin other stuff. and yea its Midgardsormr i want to change it as no one is on there much

well, recently, you can now switch servers alongw ith everything you own, including your gil... but it can only be done once every 3 months and it costs you 25$ (which is good considering this was not a possiblity for 3+ years)

come to valefor and i will help you level... i won't get you to 75 lol... maybe get you to 40 or so (i can use my friends account to plvl you)

but plvling is very boring lol.. and very time consuming...

other then that all i can really tell you is, speed lvl (take any and all pties, any exp is better then none) until you can get to where you can solo decent exp (as a rdm, it takes being atleast 50, and even then it's kinda hard... at 55+ it gets alot easier... you HAVE to have convert, refresh, and alot of teir 2 ele spells)

think of how long it takes you to solo an Easy prey at your level... it takes you about 1 and a half times worth easy prey to take down a tough at that level which weilds 100+ exp WITHOUT exp ring.

FFXI is a very time consuming game.... i mean look above to what i've accomplished..... that took roughly 8,800 hours of PLAY TIME (not membership time)

and as you're well aware of by now, the higher you get, the more exp it takes to level... just wait til you have to get 20,000+ to level... at near 60, it starts taking 10,000+ to level each time, and it only gets steeper.

but it does equal out... at that level, everyone pretty much knows their job in and out, and mobs just start to fall like grass under a lawn mower... and especially with TOAH (treasures of aht urhgan) exp has soared... 40-50 exp chains instead of 4-5.... stay rdm tho and don't go blm...

blm really has no place in higher lvl parties anymore, with that expansion a new party order came... which is quite simply... tank, dd, dd, dd, healer, refresher (rdm/brd) there's really no place for anyone else... hopefully that will be addressed in WOTG
