Dear autorun function. Yesterday when I asked you to bring me to the one guy on a bridge you made me fall to my death. Today, when you had to bring me to the shore with my horse afk fishing while at work you decided to drop us in the sea. Fuck you.

Breh fishing has taken us on like a 3 hour journey sailing the open ocean stacked up on a tiny raft trying to link trade nodes
 
I know how you feel about the classes in the game is up to personal taste but I haven't really had a moment where I feel more attached to my Sorceress vs my Valkyrie.. maybe that will come later but as of right now they really feel similar in play. I am hoping that the future updates and additional classes will fix this problem for me.

Sorceress and Valkyrie are nowhere near similar at all. Once you get more abilities you'll see how much the playstyle differs

I hear all these npc's talking about "linking trade routes" but how do I actually accomplish this? I click node on some npc and it shows the map + blue line where do I go from here?

I got a guest pass from a friend yesterday, tried it out, played Wizard, Berserker, Ranger and Valkyrie and I'm maining Valkyrie, I loved the class.

It's the most fun I'm having in a while, caught me completely offguard... and tomorrow, the division, sheesh.

I have a bad habit of spending money on a game and then dropping it after less than an hour of gameplay due to it not suiting my tastes, prefer not to get burnt again. I would love a guest pass to try it out if anyone has a spare. Otherwise I'll hold off for a bit for more impressions I guess.

I'm think you can avoid it if you put 'shine' at 0 in the hair color option during the caracter creation.

I have shine at 0 and still at night I'm glowing like a lantern. It's just how lighting and hair color works it seems. My hair is light brown with orange ends. You need to use dark colors to avoid it.

So either some people have High End and they don't realize it or something. Cause for me? All rain details are lost when High End goes off.

That is weird because I have the rian puddles and everything without HEM.

Please tell me, there will be a PS4-version for that game.

I know they said they're considering a port but honestly, it wont work.I's so based on KB+M (eventhough it's still playable on pad) that they would have to revamp so much stuff.

Petria here, I would be up for that!

We need to set a day and hour for a EU meetup and do the pic!

Oh ok, now that I think about it my Tamer probably has the same problem but I didn't see it because I usually have my lantern already equiped when the night come. Too bad for a game giving that many opportunity ( and tools ) for good pictures.

Would love a guest pass as well. Kinda on the fence myself, since I'm having a bad case of a MMO burnout, but maybe this game would bring something new to the formula.

Looking at that map, I was wondering if I could reach Balemi Island with the boat, or I'll get ambushed by pirates long before my destination?

Getting some Balemi fishes with the Velia ship.

Hmmm, I don't remember getting to choose my server when I started. I only got to pick 'Serendia #1' but it appears I'm on another server. Is there any way to change to Jordine or am I screwed?

I had my doubts but I'm warming up to the game (still have much to learn).

If there are spots left in the guild,

Thanks!

Is there a European GAF Guild in Jordine?

Yep there is!

Serendia is just a channel, there's 3 servers and all have different channels (named the same)

Whats up with this?

Dunno, but found two of those "fountains"

I wonder if it'll factor into later quests... Hope it's not just detail. On that note, I hope whatever combat events in the game just happen. No warning on the site or loader until after it starts.

Name is Halcyonne Prophyon , first cahracter name and second Family name.

Have to abandon my current guild before joining.

Can you reserve me a spot till I get home from work?

sure. If I'm not on send "Amisur"(family name) a friend request he is the second in command :D

Hmm, if I do manage to get a Guest Pass and create a character, does that character and progress stay if I end up buying the game later on?
EDIT: Got one.

Indeed. I'm aware of that. I never got to pick Jordine though - it just put me straight into Croxus.

Ah nevermind, I see where you pick it now. Oh well, hopefully they'll add a server change option in the future.

With regards to the steam controller, I think I'm gonna get to work on putting together a control scheme for those who are used to FFXIV.

Finally got a chance to buy the game. Gotta work now but I'll start the download tonight.
How does the game run? Heavy on requirements or is it a decent engine?

Been really wanting to try this game, and see if my computer would run it alright. Anyone got any spare guest passes? ^_^
Probably will end up buying it if I like it.

steam controller suddenly break for anyone else? BDO seems to require admin on startup now and that steam overlay fix doesn't seem to like it.

I've started building a fishing boat. That took 14 hours of play yesterday just to get to the point where I could start. On top of the entire previous week.

Apprentice level 6 fishing at the moment and that's netting me 200k+ per AFK session now.Fishing in the node for the first island off Velia and selling in Calpheon. The rowing boat certainly makes that less of a chore
 
Love the screenshots game is certainly a looker. So anxious to try it. Would love a spare guest pass if anyone has one!

Apparently it works well with a controller? Awesome!
