[QUOTE=SweFox*;41063461]You have exclusive rights to my Beta 4 account if you want :P![/QUOTE]
No thanks. I'm sure they'll send me my key this week.
[QUOTE=SweFox*;41063655]So release wont have any EU servers?[/QUOTE]
If the release server list is the same as the beta list then the EU servers will be labelled with "(EU)" but still hosted in NA. I didn't experience any latency issues during the beta whilst playing on a NA server.
I was browsing the beta forums earlier, some interesting screenshots. FP was acting up so I forgot to copy stuff over here, I'll dig a few up again
Ugh SE's live chat is suspenseful as hell. They ask me all this information and I'm just sweating here making sure I got it right.
[editline]17th June 2013[/editline]
And then they take 10 minutes to respond to anything.
[editline]17th June 2013[/editline]
Alright, I have my code refiled to be sent. Here's hoping I still don't get it!
beta screenshot thread dump, sorry for spam but since the NDA has lifted screenshots I thought it'd only be fair to bring them to those not able to get in yet

I love that you can see the other characters looking at their selection, can't remember if this was in 1.0 or not but it's still a rarity in games

also for those wondering, it's not shipping with DX11 support, thus some restrictions are in place on texture size (note the low res flat grass) and allowances for things like cloth physics. It's said that a DX11 client will be released alongside the PS4 release early next year.

more, with a little post processing but still neat

βテストフェーズ3の次回日程は明日にはお知らせできる見込みです(週末予定です)。もうちょいとお待ちください
Translation: "The next phase 3 beta test session will be announced tomorrow (we're planning for the weekend). Please wait a little bit longer."
Rumor has it on the beta forums that [b]you can gain beta access for PS3[/b] by watching the 8 minute long trailer that allegedly released today on the PSN store
It gives you a code at the end apparently, I'm not sure how that system works
[quote=OP]Okay, when on your XMB menu, look at the PSNetwork icon, then on the Orange icon for "what's new" click it, the menu opens up, and there's some stuff about Home E3 space, and then under it it says "free beta code" When you finish watching it (it wont download) then you get a message with the codes.
I'm in the NA region so I can only speak from that point of view. But I'm on my PS3 All day everyday and that wasn't there last night.[/quote]
edit- facebook post, does this mean beta is open?
[img]http://i.imgur.com/o7g7rll.png[/img]
Beta Weekend this weekend. 1.0 characters.
So even though my code was filed to be "resent" yesterday, I still didn't receive it even today.
What do I doooooo? Seems like it's never going to work. Probably going to switch the primary email to a gmail or something since some people are saying it might be a problem with outlook/live/hotmail.
[editline]18th June 2013[/editline]
But with the myraid of people having the same problem I can't help but fell this is SE's fault somehow...
I apparently got banned from the beta forum for 216 hours for replying to some dink that was throwing a tantrum
Doesn't say kicked from beta though.

Yeah, hopefully you're not out of the beta.
Although I'm curious of the whole story :v:
guy makes thread about how mad he is he wasn't emailed about the previous beta weekend, even though he was already in beta and should have known the schedule.
someone posts to say he should have just checked the forums for times
he goes on a holier than thou power trip, calling the guy an ape, flinging around a few other insults, saying he's "not here for 'fun and games', only to beta test the game", "not here for a popularity contest, not here to be a 'forum queen', this isn't WoW"
I replied to call him a drama queen and point out where the schedule was
ban reasons:
-Posting that constitutes discrimination against another forum member or group (also including forming groups for the purpose of discrimination), insults, slander, libel, harassment of a group or individual.
-Posting aimed to create a negative impact on the community or its members.
-Use of inappropriate or aggressive language.
and here people think FP is strict, I got 9 days for that
at any rate, I'll (allegedly) be on Adamantoise with dargon and a few others this weekend
[url]http://na.beta.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/1791349/[/url] Neat! i can see my character :O
I'll play a bit on Adamantoise this weekend too, dont think ill play an amazing amount but yeah.
NA is pretty shortchanged on available time to play, it starts at 3 or 4 in the morning on friday for me and I'll probably not be home til 8pm
also my arc looks like ronald mcdonald's daughter
[img]http://i.imgur.com/o7hvyce.png[/img]
there was a discussion on this in the forum, apparently they're adding vanity slots that will override the look of your equipped armor. Lots of people bitching that it will just enable people to be bikini-clad warriors, but the benefit of it definitely shines when there's some armors you just can't stand the looks of. Sometimes dying your stuff doesn't do much to help the fact you're firing a bow and arrow using oven mitts

I'm convinced that SE uses a chatbot as their chat support.
[editline]19th June 2013[/editline]
Ok, never mind. I finally had a situation to where they didn't capitalize the first letter in their sentence!

They just gave me my code straight up in the chat ;_; I think im going to cry

So apparently my 1.0 character is on a server that doesn't exist anymore. (Durandal)
Oh well. I know I wasn't past level 10.
[editline]19th June 2013[/editline]
Unless the fact that my character reads as "cancelled" under my ff14 service account means that it was really deleted.
If you aren't a legacy account you don't keep old chars anyways. Not that 10 levels is really difficult to recoup
So wait, do we have access to our 1.0 accounts now?
I haven't really touched the beta since phase 1. Been waiting for some updates :v:
[editline]19th June 2013[/editline]
ugh...I hate my download speeds.

Mine doesnt show up on the lodestone though, only my 2.0 characters, maybe they've not actually done the import yet.
start your engines, beta client will update itself upon next run. Beta starts in 14 hours
[quote]Jun. 21st 2:00 a.m. to Jun. 23rd 2:00 a.m. (PDT) / Jun. 21st 9:00 to Jun. 23rd 9:00 (GMT)[/quote]
I believe my client is now fully updated.
[img]http://i.imgur.com/qyWKxev.jpg[/img]
Turns out my 1.0 character looks nothing like i remembered :v: and only level 9.
Is there an eu facepunch server we are playing on?
We've not officially chose anything, that said Adamantoise seems to be the ~unofficial~ server
NA/EU servers are one in the same, so yeah I think we're officially Adamantoise for now
How many European players are happy to play on Adamantoise instead of a designated EU server? I only ask because I don't really want to have to rely completely on playing during American business hours to have people to play/chat with.
I will be awake at odd hours if that counts for anything
[QUOTE=daijitsu;41126434]I will be awake at odd hours if that counts for anything[/QUOTE]
Good to know. I don't mind playing at odd hours; I used to do it all the time when I was playing FFXI (it was either get up early to play with the Japanese or stay up late to play with the Yanks). However, I'm entering my final year of uni in September and, while I really want get into FFXIV, I will have commitments that mean I can't play until 3 in the morning every time.

I'll be going with the same server as most people goes, so if we do all dogpile adamantoise for release ill be there and i'm a EU dooder.
that said, i went to see if i can transfer my character
[t]http://i.imgur.com/rbW3SNa.png[/t]
Guess only to the new servers, don't know if that changes or not :x
1.0 characters are locked to their servers for 6 months after launch.
[editline]21st June 2013[/editline]
I guess it's to make sure they don't fuck with the economy.
Darn, that's a real shame. :c does make sence, even if i've only got 1.5k gil on it. i just then have to decide on playing on my own for 6 months or rolling on a new server and forever hating myself for not having the legacy tattoo. :x
