sc5? d3? damn i preordered both and regret  doh.gif

Cancelled my sc5 preorder as soon as I learned about the DRM thingy. Thank God. sweat.gif

Nah, it was RO2. Anticipated it to become as fun as the original RO. Was awfully mistaken.

Though, it made me have faith on P2P and B2P. Bought GW2 as soon as I quit. LOL

Hi, guys

Apologies, but I'm new to FFXIV:ARR.  Was wondering if anyone could help by answering some questions.

1) So in order to play the game on the PS3; it's best to get the EU version and pay via credit or debit card?  If so, don't they require your credit or debit card to have an EU billing address?

2) Is Tonberry is the best option?  I remember one of my friends telling me that the game ran quite smoothly apart from some lag during certain occasions while he was on Leviathan during Phase 3.
*
1) EU UK version to be exact. So to get the cheapest sub rate. Hm, do they still send bills to your home nowadays? Can't you check the bills online?

2) Tonberry is a new server. Means everyone will start at Lv 1 with minimal Gil (money). We're also playing on Masamune which is a Legacy (older) server where there will be players from the previous version of FFXIV (vets) who have leveled up their characters. You can read the pros and cons of these two servers written by Shojikun on the first page smile.gif

SimCity 2013. Older fans of SimCity dubbed it as SimCity 5, as it being the fifth game of the title smile.gif

is cheaper then playing f2p game with cash shop anyway rolleyes.gif

This! +1

I've been playing a lot of F2Ps for years. Sometimes a month can fork out more than RM100 just to get that teeny weeny edge in game. Only to be marked as "Cash Users" later on. Geez sweat.gif

It's better to play P2P, pay monthly and get a fair share of gameplay for ALL players.

RM100 is cash user? what game you play @.@, Try Granado Espada or RO2 hehe see your RM100 got use or not
*
Emphasize MORE than. Angels Online, Luna Online, Tales of Pirates, GodsWar and some other games I can't remember anymore. Would separate some money after payday just for these games. LOL.

Been ages since I last use cash shop for f2p games. RO2 was my last f2p. Didn't spend any money on that one. Seemed so unstable at that time.

Install Internet Explorer 10 or update to the latest one. It seems Squeenix have some partnership going with Microsoft Windows 8 and IE 10. So that would prolly explains it.

Anyway, downloading patch now. Finally can get to bed peacefully. Goodnight guys. See you in game soon biggrin.gif

Maybe only Beta Testers from phase 3 only can patch for now. And tomorrow for the rest of Open Beta Testers.

i cant seem to press Next at agreement page. and mine is IE8.does it matter

Here, try this. Should fix it.

QUOTE
Navigate to this folder in you c:/User/ dir...

/My Games/FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn (Beta Version)/FFXIV_BOOT.cfg in your user folder.

Change EulaAgreement to 1 and relaunch.

The launcher is incredibly slow, it took 5 minutes for me to reach the login part.

I got a second script error when I got to the downloading part of the launcher, but I just force-closed it with ctrl-shift-esc and canceled the exe in the manager (because it was hung up on my comp). When I relaunched it, it started up just fine and the game is now downloading.

Don't know why they have to make it such a pain to download the client. Why not let everyone download first doh.gif
*
Download servers will get congested and (possibly) crash. Happened to many MMOs. They don't want that. It's better if they let people download/patch by phases. Like for now, ex-phase 3 players only. Then only rest of Beta players. Next will be EA players and the official launch comes after where everyone can download the patch.

Hmmm aside from the dungeons we know which is Dzeamel Darkhold & Cutter's Cry. There will be more im guessing and one of the End Game dungeon that will be available on Launch is LoB, or Labyrinth of Bahamut, 8-man pt version. then coming patch 2.1 which is slated for November 2013, will features Frontline PvP & Crystal Tower 24-man PT version... then more will come like LoB 24-man version.
*
Does the 24-man dungeon really have 24 players all together in the same dungeon? Have any beta testers tried it out?

hi, this would be my first time playing FF online game
and this is also the first time I'll be registering Square Enix account
do I have to buy the game first to create the account or can I just register and apply for the open beta?
*
You can register for free to play OBT. But you have to act fast. OBT ends tomorrow at 5pm. All data will be carried over to official launch.

Remember to register your account under UK country (EU) so to get the cheapest subscription rate just in case you decided to buy the game.

Each copy purchased has 30 days free subs already.

Register and download client here https://secure.square-enix.com/account/app/...p?rgn=eu&lng=en

Guys I chose Tonberry as my world but just found out I was booted to Typhon. Why is that? Can I change?
*
Typhon is one of the new servers, I believe. Maybe they wanna fill up the new servers.

Try creating new char on Tonberry. If the server selection is closed, keep raping that refresh button for 3 mins and see if it'll open up.

If not, well....

Lets just hope SE will open up those servers soon sweat.gif

Dunno where did you get these screens. You sure they're from Tonberry? Cuz I'm pretty sure there is an Eien Heart in our FC and we're in the Masamune Legacy server where there are lvl 50s.

How silly that I just realized it this morning. That screens are in the dungeon. Duty Finder in FFXIV is cross-server, so there are bound to be Lv 50 Legacy players who got sync down for said dungeons and run together with different servers' players

mind double checking if u're still able to purchase it? Cos i'm from SG and somehow our region got blocked.

I used a VPN before and set to Singaporean DNS. Then I checked for leak and it seemed Singapore was using NA IP. Maybe that's why you are blocked.

If you end up not enjoying the server you're on, or you have friends on another server, after roughly six months Square Enix is allowing people to change servers. There will be a small fee involved, and if a server is overcrowded you may not be able to transfer there, but otherwise all transfers will be approved. After six months, the pre-existing economies of legacy servers shouldn't be all that different from the non-legacy servers, so you won't have much to worry about. Keep an eye on Prima Games for more Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn tips and strategies in the coming weeks.
