I boughr FFXI for the Xbox 360 last August, and in December I cancelled the subscription because I wasn't playing it much and just as well because I had to leave the job I had. I had never really gotten into the game in the first place.
When I cancelled, the woman I spoke to at Playonline said yhat my PO account would always remain open as it's free, but that I'd need to purchase another content ID if I didn't play FFXI for more than three months.
Anyway, I'll stop digressing. A friend of mine said to me today "when I get my 360, I'll probably get FFXI just to have it", and I said to her that if she got it then her and I could play it together. I would play the game again if I had people to play with.
However, I was on the Sylph server, and have forgotten whether it's automatic or whether you get to choose which server you play on. It wouldn't be helpful for her to buy the game, then find herself on a different server and have to find someone to give her a world pass or vice versa.
If she were to get it, we would want to play it together. Is there any way to ensure this would be possible without too much faffing around?
