Won't downsampling make the UI super-small though, since you can't freely resize it to be a lot larger?
And I'm jealous of your GTX 780.
Actually, iirc (and this may have changed) but you can scale just the UI if you want to.

Yes. Also remember to account for a few MS of latency as is with any online game.Also about the Danger Areas (the red rings or lines that indicate the enemy is about to make a powerful attack), am I correct in assuming that you are fine as long as you manage to step out of them before they dissapear?
For example: The enemy begins charging his attack -> a red ring appears under my feet -> I run out of it -> ring dissapears -> enemy begins his attack animation -> I run back to where the ring was -> enemy does the attack -> I'm not hit.
In this case I'm actually visually hit by the attack, but since I stepped out of the red indication before it dissapeared I don't take any damage. That was kind of my experience from the beta.
Gotcha, thanks!Yes. Also remember to account for a few MS of latency as is with any online game.
That could work in a World vs World kind of PvP scenario. There's been talk about having the 3 Grand Companies fight over castles and the like in some kind of PvP-mode, so who knows.Back around the time when ARR was announced Yoshi-P mentioned that you would have primals sort of roaming the world, and once killed they could be captured by a guild who then could use it as a summon once and after that the primal would spawn again or something like that.
I am assuming this idea was scrapped? I can see why it was, sounds cool on paper but probably wouldn't work very well.

CODECEPTION
I love how you have to enter a code to enter a code. This could not possibly be more convoluted. Unless they added a third code, so you would enter a code to enter a code to enter a code!
So will the nda be over for early access?

It looks like the sky in the zone Odin is in will darken/greenify when he's stalking about.
Awesome.

I entered my PS3 pre-order code and mine doesn't show that. It only shows early access, not the pre-order items. Did you pre-order on PSN? Mine's from amazon.Huzzah!
It worked finally on the PS3
Super excited!
If you ordered the game from Amazon:

The game launches on 27th August 2013. Shortly before then you will receive your game activation key and instructions. You will need to register to continue playing after the Early Access period closes.

I thought the UI scale only goes from 80% to 120%...
He/She redeemed the EU early access code, I assume separate teams submitted that item to SCEA and SCEE respectively, which accounts for the disparity in the item description.I entered my PS3 pre-order code and mine doesn't show that.

I only ever seem to post questions in this thread but I'm curious, does anyone here have a 4GB (or 2GB) GTX 760 card and tried the beta or benchmark? Would love to know how the game performs with that card installed )
You are still not allowed to stream or post videos until the 27th.

I wouldn't worry about it, you'll still be getting your pre-order items when you login and link your S-E FFXIV account to your SEN account.
Does anyone know how fast squareenix support usually is at answering questions that is sent to them?
Does this game have a UI scale? I tried downsampling but the UI becomes tiny and I couldn't find any scaling anywhere.

Damn, regretting sticking with Sarg now- looks like most of the EU people (even more so than Ragnarok) are on Ultros...

Is there a base HP/MP calculator for all the races at certain levels/classes? I'm interested to see the differences both early on and at 50.
When I wiped my phone I lost my token app thus locking me out of my account. So I just decided to talk to them via live chat support. The operator asked me for some of my account info such as my full name on file and home address. I just asked him if I could remove the security token requirement from my account and he did. It was pretty straightforward and easy so you might try live chat support.
For the PS3 version, is the game region specific? I'm wondering if I can use my R1 US copy that I pre-ordered with my current Japanese PSN/SEN account.
Guess login is disabled. Cause all i get is a blank screen after attempting to login.

I haven't run across a guide that lays it all out. Its not important since the racial stats are intended to be extremely negligible in this game; at most, there is only a 6 stat difference between the best and worst race in any given category.
For instance, you get 15 HP from VIT @ 50. Max level PLD have around 4000 HP (likely much higher with new ARR gear), while the difference between a Roegadyn PLD and Lala PLD is only ~90HP.
It's not really stupid, with mechanics like that you end up gimping classes on the fight and that isn't fun for players who play those classes.Speaking of primals, I still can't wrap my head about the fact you can technically nuke Ifrit with fire spells because they killed elemental weaknesses.
It's just plain stupid.
