inc A Realm Reborn: Final Fantasy XI.
Sadly right now it's A Realm Aborted: Final Fantasy XI.... Matsui and the gang (his pinky finger) needs to get a move on and do a drastic measure to save FFXI. The small party and solo contents (focusing on exploration) needs to be released NOW and not 8 months later when the game is bleeding out more subscribers.

Addition of battle content that can be undertaken by low-man parties or solo (+NPC)
The idea is something like an Adoulin version of Meeble Burrows.
Expansion of synthesis and other non-battle content
Continued adjustments to reives
Addition of solo-content that focuses on exploration instead of battle
Adjustments so that players’ efforts are more naturally tied to colonization
Revamps and enhancements to equipment
RMEC weapons, job specific equipment, etc.
