Got to 28 today... was hoping to get 30/WHM, but I can do it tomorrow. "It's Not Lupus"/Cancer FATE was fun, got a cute little crab pet.

Having finally spent some quality time with the game I can honestly say its hooking me more than I thought it would.

As a FFXI lifer (or no-lifer because I played too much of it :p) I honestly thought it was a blessing in disguise 1.0 being shit so I never wanted to play it very much. Now I'm worried about getting addicted again. :(

I'm a forever console player so having a proper console version helps immensely, the game is making me feel old though as I can't read the text in the NPC chat bubbles very well. I've discovered how to make everything else bigger (which is wonderful SE! so much customizations in the UI is amazing!) but yeah, the NPC chat bubble text is waay too small for me and I can't seem to figure out how to change that.

Someone suggested instead of using the Duty Finder, gather a party on the spot since there will be people waiting there.

I joined a party put together by someone instead of going through the Duty Finder for Sastasha tonight (didn't know any better) and it was a complete bomb since they didn't get anyone that could heal. Now that I know better, next time I try it I'll use the Duty Finder. I think I'm going to head to Ul'dah and start on Gladiator though.

Hey...HEY...guys. Guess what, guys????

Finally got a character created on Ultros. Now 1017 a few times and hopefully I'll be on.

Anyone on that can invite me to the guild or w/e it's called?

Ok, I've been playing this on Early Access since Saturday on the PS3. Just got the disk in the mail through amazon today. How do I register it to get the 30 days free? I put the registration code that came with the disk into the PSN store and now it wants me to download the whole 6.3GB client again. Do I really have to do that?? My feeble brain can't figure this out.

If you were playing early access then no you don't have to do that. Just use the client you already downloaded.

Does anyone else get random huge fps drops after a while? Usually every 30 minutes the screen goes black for a second and then the game is down to 7-9 fps. I'm running it on a GTX 670 so it shouldn't have any problems. :/

I had that when I tried OCing my 670, went back to stock and haven't have a problem since. The driver would crash, setting my voltages back to default for some reason. I was only getting a couple frames increase anyway so it wasn't worth the extra heat/noise. I am on the newest beta drivers and they actually did increase my performance in this game.

Try updating your drivers, that was happening to me and my friend suggested it and it seemed to do the trick!

How much of a presence does GAF have on Durandal? The player list in the OP only has shows two people playing on the JP servers. I'd rather hook up with some GAFfers, but if there's no one on, I'll probably just go to one of the new, non-legacy servers.

Yeah, just go with what you like. Once you start down the dark road of MIN/MAXing, it will leech the fun out of the game.

WHY COULDN'T THEY HAVE INCLUDED THIEF!? The one class I wanted and it's gone. I could have lived with Red Mage but NO!

I haven't had the black screen part, but I have had a few occasions where the game drops to 1 fps for a good 6-8 seconds and my harddrive light goes berserk. Makes me think the drive that the game's installed on is getting so little activity that it's parking and going to sleep. :/

Edit: derp, quoted the wrong post. Tired + posting on the phone. :[

I'm tempted to pull out my Hori Turbo Controller and go to bed with hit automatically hitting the A button. I figure while I'm asleep I'll finally get in and won't have to worry when I wake up.

What's this?! IM IN QUE?! :OOOOO

It's a known bug, wait for SE to fix it.

I did. And I have an SLI 670 set up. I got the latest drivers from NVidia's support site and the problem has not happened again, and that was 2 or 3 days ago.

I am not really loving WHM. Although I am only 42. I think I am going to get my SCH going. There seems like there is a lot of movement involved in the dungeons so having 1 spell I can cast and move is kind of bleh. Stoneskin while great for soloing goes away after 1 hit in a dungeon on the tank. It needs to have charges or something for a spell that lasts 30m, is as expensive as Cure II and takes longer to cast to go away so quickly. I hope it scales better at 50 since it is based off the targets HP because it was pretty worthless at 40.

Yeah, downloading the beta drivers to see if it helps. Thanks for the replies!

Lol SE just cannit catch a break with this game. Everything they post on facebook at this point is met with hordes of angry people not able to play the game. Its a shame too because its clear from the little time I had with the Beta that they really put allot into fixing the game. Its really good from what I could tell, but this server stuff being as big as it is does not help peoples opinion of a game that launched, and failed once already.

I hope SE can sort it out.

Logged off. Gotta be nice since tomorrow I won't be around the whole day. I have some questions though!

1) How do I get my GAF tag? :p!
2) I am a THM.... If I use Blizzard a few times I get this cool Umbral Ice thing. SHould I keep spamming Blizzard for better effect or should I switch to say... FIreball or Thunder? That game mechanic has me confused.

Endless "Now Loading" to which I had to restart the client.

TO HECK WITH YOU, SE! My controller is working right now and I don't have to do anything. Eventually I'll get in, and I'll never log out!

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

And, I'm in. Thanks for the invite!

I'm on PS3 so I can't really do much chatting in the guild window. Don't have a mic either...will probably get one this weekend though.

I am technically challenged and need some help. Everytime I try and play I get really bad lag.....abilities take forever to go off, interactions with npcs are delayed, and players rubberband around me constantly. I can't seem to find anyone else running into this issue, so I am guessing it is on my end. This is only happening with this game and none of my others. I have decent Internet and am so confused why I am running into this issue. If anyone could give me some ideas what could be causing this I would really appreciate it.
