I think one look at the comments on any news story on the new lodestone will tell you your answer to that O.O.

I shouldn't be appalled by what I read on the Internet anymore, but people are REALLY stretching the insults/threats to, frankly, unacceptable levels. It's one thing to be frustrated and vent your frustration. It's another to threaten lives of the director and employees at SE.

People are acting really childish and ignorant about a problem effectively being created by other players. If people like that are going to bounce, then I say peace.

Just to make things more confusing, the mog station can't even be labeled well.

Be sure you don't click Add New Service Account. Instead you want to click the O icon that looks like the one from Reborn in the logo. If you don't do this, you'll lose all your beta and EA progress.

I'm slacking on my crafting, but I have a lot less money than I did in Beta 3, so I feel like I want to build up my coffers a bit more before I go hard with it.

I should probably level THM to 15 or so as well.

I don't know what you originally said, but the information was probably right up until the end of P3 or even 4. I think they changed it for release build, and were just being kind to us by giving the retainer early.

It's the Internet; the world's biggest bandwagon of hate.

I've given up for the moment as well; gonna go relax, do some other things, watch Breaking Bad, play Ni No Kuni. I'll try again later, but I'm in no rush. I want to enjoy the game, not hit 50 ASAP XD

If anyone upgraded to CE on that moogle website, does it only give the 4 bonus items? No physical goods? No extra play time for free? Trying to decide if it's worth it for me.

Today must be my lucky day or something, logged into Sargatanas on my first attempt and then queued for Haukke Manor and it popped instantly for a group that didn't suck. Next thing I know ill end up with a drop from one of these instances that isn't for casters.

Just a reminder for those that registered their game today.

If you didn't already it might be a good time to add a security token to your account if you have a smartphone. I set mine up and it's pretty simple.

There's a link to it on the Mog Station site under account settings.

FFXIV v1.0 is not still going. I don't know what you're smoking. I guess their actual last MMO would be DQ though.

Yes this makes sense. He said "last mmo", which I interpreted as the last FF MMO, which did not tank. 1.0 is an earlier version of this MMO, it's not their "last MMO".

I'm really enjoying the PS3 version a lot more than I expected I would. The controller setup for this game is quite good once you're used to it.

The best part is playing the PC version using a DS3 and changing the HUD so it displays PS3 buttons instead of 360 controller ones. It's like playing the PS3 version... on your PC!

I'm just using some someone else posted earlier, can't remember who, but here they are:

I have not played around with the settings at all to try different things. I also turned off the vibrance and tonemap (I think) that's turned on by default with SweetFX since I don't dislike the color rendering of the game.

Everything is dialed up pretty high in the SMAA settings and it does affect font rendering in the game, but not to the point that it's unreadable or annoying to my eyes anyway. Forcing traditional SGSSAA looks bad in the game to my eyes, it mutes the colors and makes everything look blurry to me. I'd rather have some shimmering than that.

Awesome, tried it out and works pretty well. Thanks!

I'm just confused in general on what the problem really is I guess? I have my main on Exodus (couldn't get on ultros :( )... Past 2 days I've had problems with the 1027 error, server full.

Switch to a different NA/EU server, bam I'm in queue, in game. They really just have turned queues off for certain servers or what in the world is going on?

(Not really complaining (maybe a little)... the bit I've played I've really enjoyed and yes, its an mmo launch... expected. I'm just stuck in this 'huh' feeling for a problem like this)

So are they even addressing 1017 at this point or just pretending nothing's happening? Where do they post updates?

I think the issue's mainly exasperated by a lot of major gaming communities (GAF, Reddit, /vg/) picking a few select servers to base major communities out of and it's overwhelming the load on those in particular. Almost every one of them is playing on Ultros...

Its great for me, until I keep targeting people's carbuncles by mistake whenever a FATE starts, and I'm desperately trying to find a target before all the casters nuke it.

This is something I hope they fix soon! Targetting should prioritize mobs over NPC pets/NPCs/etc.

FFXI had a similar problem...it was even used as a way to grief people at HNM camps!

Get off work and get server is full message, this is pretty much GG. My linkshell is getting so far ahead of me it isn't funny.

Yeah, that sounds probable.

Like someone right above mentioned... I think simply showing pop counters/indicators/and actually just having the queue even if its 100000000 would help people decide 'hey... maybe I'll play on a different server'

I'm just in that 'man... I've got a lot of time already on this server... damnit don't make me move!'

Either way, I'm actually pretty impressed overall with the game when I'm in. I went in with basically no expectations, played a tiny bit of the ps3 beta, and have just been having a ball with it. I am a bit concerned how things will play out once you finish the main quest start doing alts though. I wonder how much of it will blatantly feel like a grind and not.

Didn't even know that existed... You sir are officially my hero. This has been a problem for me as well.

You can change the filters for targetting in the settings for both while your weapon is unsheathed and sheathed. I have it so no NPC is targetable while my weapon is out which makes FATEs alot more managable as well as tanking in partys

Also turned off targeting other players while my weapon is sheathed to make targeting quest NPC's easier when there are alot of people around.

New player tip? Spam login until you get in, get to the nearest sanctuary/play until lvl 10 for inn access, log out and don't come back until mid-september when the novelty's worn off, log in for shitload of rested exp bonus?
(Nobody in their right mind would do this)

Right now I'm just waiting for SE to email me the full-version code for mogstation.

Originally, I wanted to come in here and bitch about Thamaturges and their AE spam making my life hell as PGL or LNC when I'm doing FATEs.

And then I decided to level my Arcanist today. Tee hee. I just dot everything and stand there. Easy gold every time.

Has this been posted? Apparently I made the mistake of adding a new service account. But if I go through this to fix the problem, I'll LOSE my 30 days free subscription? That better not be true.

If anyone's looking for a low-pop server to roll on, Lamia has been pretty solid for days now. I've yet to get a 1071 and the queues are single-digits.

Hoping to transfer to Ultros (if they implement that) or continue my character I had there, but it's nice to be able to just play and forget the issues for a bit. :)

Bought DD preorder directly from SE. No link was found anywhere in emails to download the client. No product or early access code given. Opened support ticket and the response given was the generic download instructions contained in the purchase confirmation email. Friend sent me the d/l link but I don't have a code. Cancel my order, they said no refund required. Well, it billed me, and a refund IS required. Currently like number 175 in live chat queue. Gonna ask them to provide a link to download the game and cancel my cancelation, or simply process the cancel. At this point I don't even care if I play the game anymore

I've bought DD preorder directly from SE too - I got an EA code with which I've been playing for the past few days, but I didn't receive the code for the actual game until like 10 minutes ago. But it's weird that you didn't get the early access, hope they're able to resolve the issue on live chat!

I wonder if they opened the PC version early as I am able to login to the launcher and update the game. I wasnt able to do that this morning as it was saying I didn't have an active service. Guessing thats what happened when they opened the Mog Station.

I can't stop playing. I haven't been grabbed like this in an MMO in a long time. I'm playing an arcanist now and loving it. Great stuff.

Here's my story:

-Got EA code

-I didn't get charged.....(no record of it anywhere in my bank statements).

This was ordered a month ago.
