I bought the physical ce 2.0 but also had the 1.0 which is sitting next to me. Problem is I have 2 accounts and I dont want to use the one that my ffxi and ffxiv 1.0 are on do you think they would merge my accounts as I can prove they are both mine and such.

 

[Augemitbutter]

finally got the first code through. so what to do next for the ps3 version? am i forced to download the client again? i don't see any other way to register the next code.

 

[Valnen]

Extremely boring and vanilla.

The only have like 3 different attach chains.. one of which recovers mana which you only have one ability that uses mana...

Well a tank has a lot more to worry about then their rotation if the encounters are designed well enough.

 

[SkoomaSuckinSwit]

I wonder if the client for Early Access is the same as the one for Phase 4 on PS3? It looks to have been posted on the same date, and is a similar size.

After putting in the code, I'm downloading the game yet again.
3rd time now.

When I get the actual disk, will it be a full install on my PS3?

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I finally finished. What a nightmare.

Onion Helm and Asuran Armguards, 2.0 CE goods, Mog Hat and Cait Sith Minion.

Ready for Saturday. See you guys there.

Do minions attack, or are they just for decoration?

 

[Nirran]

Finally got it to work. for those of you who are still getting error 3 its because it still thinks you're EU when you're in NA.

-Click on your name at the top of the page and go to your profile.
-When it loads look and see what the address of your profile is. Mine said eu.profile address.

-If yours says this simply change the eu. to na. and press enter once it loads hit back two times and input your code it should work.

hope that helps.

Amazing I did this and it worked. For some reason mine was set to UK.

"Decoration."

 

[Cmagus]

I don't think so. I would need to make like 2.3 million gil a day for 30 days to catch up to people with 70 million gil xfering over while they just get to buy and resell everything I worked hard to list and probably double their millions. Besides the fact that that's pretty much impossible, just can't compete.

While I don't wanna get into the whole legacy vs non legacy argument one thing that I like is that most materials in this game are fairly easy to obtain. Not only that but in 1.0 there were alot of things that would become hot items on the marketplace for all levels. I can't remember off the top of my head the one item that was going for alot but people were farming lvl 10 sheep and even those lower could make money.

Also at the start the stuff that legacy players are selling and making the big money off of aren't really a concern to someone who is a lower end player as you won't be needing a Vanya robe for awhile and by then things will have settled. The market is kind of weird in this game as certain items would go from 1000k each to 100k at random times.I remember throwing items away because I had too many and then the following week people were making a ton off of it.

Lastly you would benefit from leveling classes like miner because there is always need for ores, ingots and gear. Take your time and be smart and you will do just fine and make your money. Also alot of legacy players are lazy and don't wanna farm and have lots of money exploit that.

I don't see the point.

Well that would be because they're pointless and exist purely for aesthetics.

lol as if there were that many people in 1.0 that had 700M gil.

You can get a crab minon? Call me the Decorator.

Doesn't mean they have to be given boring skills skill to do it. War is a tank looks like they don't have that problem.

That's a lot of goodies!

It's weird that, when I registered my code, I didn't get the "Beta Test" mention under my account, despite being in the previous Beta's. The only one I got was "Windows(R)" under Permanent Options and the two pre-order bonus items [Mog Cap and Cait Sith Doll Minion].

Oh well, not much I can do about it now! Hopefully everything was registered correctly...

It's irrelevant honestly. 6 months or whatever isn't going to amount to a hill of beans. They have nerfed gil so hard from much of 1.X, the wealthiest players on fresh servers won't be a fart in the wind once the highest roller Legacy's are allowed to transfer over. Hell, they won't be a fart in the wind to even the lowest rollers. If they were concerned with fairness, they would have barred legacy's from FS servers permanently as it really makes no sense to allow it. If noobies want to play with legacy's after 6 months, they could simply transfer to legacy servers. I played 1.0 fairly casually for less than 3 months and had 20 million gil. What was the reduction amount, 50% or 90%? Either way, I'd still be loaded relative to FS 2.0. I can't even image what the people who played hardcore for 3 years had. I think I made less than 10k gil putting 15-20 hours in phase 4.

I'm not big on them either but there does feel like there is a huge chunk of people that go ballistic over that stuff. Its kinda like achievements, Leaderboards, ect.

That said, I love the direction WoW went with them, its evolved into a full on Pokemon mini game which is a lot of fun during "downtime".

That's pretty neat that low level items are useful to high level chars.

Gathering professions are essentially hard labor jobs. Leveling may be fun, but farming ore while rich people can flip it, by cheap because they are arsed to farm it themselves to use it for crafting professions to flip, and bots farming sucks and is mind numbing.

lol as if there were that many people in 1.0 that had 700M gil.

Whether it's 700 million, 100 million, 10 million, it's all in the domain of domain of really hard to catch up to impossible to catch up.

 

[Timeaisis]

I went from like not caring about this game at all too insane super hype. Good job on the OT. Quite informative and cool.

 

[_woLf]

Is XIV ARR showing up on your guys list of account services for the Square Enix account?

Mine doesn't, after I submitted the code. I mean it says it worked but only XIV 1.0 shows up.

Very nice, keep telling yourself that it's impossible and you will never achieve anything.

Hope you don't think like that in real life.

Final Fantasy XIV shows up on mine. It's the only game I have registered.

Keep being dishonest with people so you can take advantage of them. I've kind of been playing WoW for 6 years, retired now, and have been on the top of the economy with all professions leveled. I knot how AH MMO's work. I would not tell and new player to roll on a "WoW 2 legacy server" unless they had friends they wanted to play with specifically.

By the way, I'm playing on a legacy FFXIV server.

[Dragoon_lantz]

yay, can't wait! now I just need to find someone to sell me the physical collectors edition without the codes and I'll be a happy camper!

 

[Uthred]

So come Saturday do we get a second code, do we just log into the client or do we get our second code when the physical game arrives/ the 27th?

 

[Khrno]

we get our second code when the physical game arrives

Exactly.

 

[Velkyn]

Still a bit annoyed that I have legacy, yet I have to wait for the 27th, or play on the 24th by buying a game I'm going to get free anyway. Kind of a big oversight by SE.

 

[daveo42]

Whew, got mine early registration in. I wish there weren't so many hoops and accounts to jump through just to complete something that should be fairly simple.

Still, hyped and ready for Saturday morning!

Where is the page with all this data? I can't seem to find it anywhere on the site

 

[Uthred]

That's the first I've heard of this, do we? Link?

Small l legacy players (i.e. you owned the game but didnt subscribe for three paid months during the correct time period) dont get early access, capital L legacy players do

 

[Velkyn]

If I paid for 1.0 for like a month, do I count as Legacy? I may have my terms crossed here.

 

[Sblargh]

Grind gathering jobs in order to make bank to eventually start to craft is a strategy, right?

 

[Apoptomon]

Should I be worried, GAF? I pre-ordered directly from SE Europe store in mid-July and only got a receipt. I have ARR on the SE Members profile page as registered on the day I bought it, but I haven't had any codes sent my way apart from the beta ones.

Check your receipt from when you purchased it, it should be your serial number.

Had to pay for 3 months ($29.97) in order to get the full Legacy benefits.
