XD have to 100% confirm that the beta installation can be use to play...so that i could ask amazon to ship it to my usa fren.

so u got the beta key issit..

nope lol

same as you, my fren is helping me to get it at nyc and setup the account using his cc, just wanna make sure all smooth pre-launch w

one of my fren recently got into the beta from fileplanet, he told me the file is only around 4-5gb, highly doubt it can be use for retail but who knows.. maybe SE will patch it up but if no he will make an image and upload to usenet for me to download.

i think a4 to 5 gb is just for beta not full version..
ff11 also more than 4 to 5 gb...hopefully someone can confirm ;/
i want to start playing as soon as the game launch =D
lucky there is a open beta...10 days more to go!

just wait for the final beta client, maybe that one will able to play as retail becoz i think they might use that copy to print it into dvd..

hopefully not need to patch like crazy ><

yup i hope so

i manage to get a beta key at last...
the update patch is killing me..
super slow....

Ok i will update on how to get the updater to work.



Windows XP
1. From the Control Panel, select “Network Connections” -> from the toolbar, select “Advanced” -> then select “Optional Networking Components…”


2. Select “Network Services” -> choose “Details.”


3. Check the “UPnP User Interface” box and select OK.


Windows Vista
1. From the Control Panel, select “View network status and tasks” -> in the “Sharing and Discovery” box change the “Network Discovery” setting to “Turn on network discovery” and select “Apply”.



2. From the Control Panel, select “Additional Options” -> then choose “Security” from the left tab. Select “Allow a program through Windows Firewall”


3. Select the “Exceptions” tab, and in the “Program or port” box, check the “Network Discovery” box. Finally, select “Apply” and then “OK.”



* UPnP is enabled under Windows 7 default settings. Unless you have previously changed these settings, no setup is required.

After reading this interview from http://www.ffxivcore.com/topic/11248-famit...scom-interview/

Looks like fatigue system causes you to gain less and less xp the more you play a certain class, unless you change job.

yup you will get the Surplus Points. This will actually minus the Points you actually get..

Say

"You receive 500 Points for your Conjurer Class".
and
"You receive 250 Surplus Points for your Conjurer Class."

Means 500 - 250 = 250 Points you actually gain.... lol!

Btw, wanna ask u all..... how many character will u play exclude retainer......

Cause each character cost u RM10++

I would prefer fatigue systems to be done nicely. The more you play, the lesser the exp or you receive penalties. To prevent some hardcore players becoming a mindless leveling machine. =P I was such machine which plays almost 20 hours daily.

At least people could focus on crafting or resources gathering when they hit their leveling limit. Trading and socializing with friends and members would a nice social aspect and health for the game.

And for some game, fatigue system sort of eliminates bots from running around. Instead of letting your computer steal your fun of gaming, why don't sit down and play a good game manually for 4-5 hours.

Just my opinion.

Just as my thoughts, I like your way of thinking is so positive! thank god there is still someone with a sense!

@wangpr
Nope i going to stick with one and if i want more retainers i will just pay them an extra 1$ for my 1 character. Yes you can purchase up to maximum of 7 retainers for each character and each has one free retainers! (Please elaborate this as i know we can purchase more than 1 retainer for 1 character but not sure if this apply to all or single characters.)

Basically retainer is the person that will sell your stuffs when u off, right? So, why do we need until 7 retainers?

Sorry with my noob question

for mule purpose storage xD and also for more retainers to fill in my shop xD

btw i just got email from SE and some friends who have some sort of connections (Not sure) stated that one character can purchase more than 1 retainers... xD

Thank you for your answer Sir.. I hope we play together in OB and official release

seems like a gd method to discourage botting activities. i believe if fatique affect exp in lvling, it will applies to crafting and drop rates. Is fatique passively counted or it's actually affected by stamina?

I think if u wanna ur business selling good.. u need open a few with different price ...... kakakakkakaa

arhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh cant wait till open BETA!!!
