Finished main story.
Tops SWTOR for best story in a MMO.

Dethroned FF IX for my personal 'best soundtrack of all time'.

Square is saved.

I am up to level 35 and it is mediocre at best so far. It really picks up the back end of the game that much?

It gets a lot better later on but it doesn't top some of the best stories that SWTOR had like the Imperial Agent. The writing and voice acting just isn't near that level. The spectacle and music is great though!
 
I really hope they don't screw the Golden Saucer up. Like, it better actually look like the Golden Saucer, not just be called the Golden Saucer purely because it's a theme park/casino type place. But yeah, really looking forward to that.

Final Fantasy VII is my favorite game of all time.

My soul would not be able to survive that slight. Not that Square Enix hasn't already spent the past decade trying to fuck up everything I loved about it with movies and spin-offs.
 
Guys, stupid question:

Does anyone know where to buy black dye? Dark grey seems to be the darkest I can find, but some equipment comes in black so there must be black dye somewhere.
 
Anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this? I've tried some things already (firewall, reinstall, trying again...)
Always happens at 1.5 gb downloaded. I also never even ran the beta version at all. I got the client from their website a day ago.

Uncheck the "Read-Only" checkbox in the folder properties.
 
Oh, man upcoming game updates is looking nice @_@

And the first draft of the expansion submitted?! They're putting in work! I'm supporting all of this for sure. Can't wait.

Someone earlier in the thread fixed this issue by disabling anti-virus. Another person said that some people's installation folders were getting set to read only. Could be one of those things.

Try the fixes recommended above but if nothing works you may have to go into the install folder and delete the most recent piece of the download and re-download it. I had similar errors in beta 3 that were caused by a crappy downloader, it basically didn't verify the downloaded data until it was all there and if there was a fault anywhere , obviously it won't load properly.
 
I don't know if you remember, but I mentionned getting connexion problems, as in getting disconnected from the server temporarily every minute or so (world completely stops around for 10-15 then resume).

Thought it was because I'm on Wifi, but turns out that was wrong, there are some threads about it on the official forums.

Hope to god they fix this quickly, in the current state I simply can't do dungeons...
 
9,000 or 90,000? I know that 90k disconnects you if you have Internet connection issues.

I'm sure he means 90k'd haha. I feel bad saying this, but I am really glad I am not affected by that. So far everything since maintenance has been smooth sailing for me.
 
So I see that the Battlecraft Leves quest in the 1st area didn't dissappear after I completed them and seem to be repeatable, is this just so people that want to level up so they can keep repeating them or do I complete other things then they go away?

I am enjoying the main game a lot so far has great single play and can join fates with everyone or just ignore them and go on my own. FF11 after about level 10 you needed the right party and it was pretty great if you got one but that did not happen so often unless you waited.
 
Yo these DPS

Tanking in Tam Tara. This archer runs up to every group I pull and AoE's immedietely and never attacks what I am attacking. Me and the healer have to work double time.

It's worse when you're trying to pull a group of mobs to a safe area first and the DPS proceeds to go ham on them, turning the aggro on them and making the encounter become more of a benny hill chase
 
I forgot to look in my mailbox for a week and didn't realize I had received my copy of Before Meteor.

You haven't lived until you've seen "End of an Era" in 1080p with LPCM 5.1 audio on Blu-ray disc. Dear God. Nobody does CG like Squenix Visual Works.
 
Ugh...no dice anywhere around where I'm at for a physical copy of the PC version. Stumbled on single copies of the PS3 version but not really interested in that. I guess I'm stuck on the waiting game for when SE stops the hold on Digital Downloads :T

I'm on the same boat :(

Leves are basically dailies, except you get to store your 6 a day for up to half a month.

To counter all the horror stories. I did Toto-Rak again today with a duty finder group and it went great. Everyone but the tank had done it before, but we had no one trying to rush him through cutscenes and when he asked for advice he got it. Granted it's still early on and there is a lot more room for mistakes in these dungeons, but so far my experiences with the duty finder have been positive. So those of you out there new to MMOs or your class, don't be too afraid of going to dungeons if you can't get a GAF group.
 
Damn, three runs through Hakkue Manor and I can't seem to get through it w/o dying @_@

First run, me and one of the dps guys in the party died. Second run we wiped and then pulled through, 3rd run was a repeat of first run lol

I swear, I will get through it w/o dying before tomorrow!
 
90000'd twice in Halatali. Got back in without issue.

Not sure how I feel about the patch notes up there. Housing is cool, but I'm not interested in primal fights at the moment.

We shall see.

Depends on your take, but it's definitely much better at the end rush.

Voice acting is terrible compared to SWTOR, and that doesn't help.
But the music, DAMN.
 
I finally saw someone I recognized from FFXI GAF. :)
... and he ignored me. :(
 
Turning in HQ items is really useful for levelling crafting... but unfortunately I'm having a hard time finding HQ items on the market for leves that require things other than the basic bronze ingot etc.

Thanks for those links! We've been dealing with the exact same problem here. Can't play for more than 15-20 minutes (sometimes shorter) before we experience packet loss and error out of the game. It was fine before the game launched, but now it's terrible. Looks as though it may be related to the data path taken to a server in Canada. That's where the packets are lost. Really hope this gets cleared up soon. Can't play dungeons because of this stupid problem.
