Body is ready. Come at me, Yoshi.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Ooh, looks like I got my 20 digit code emails last night. A RAAE one and RAAU.

More DoTs!!!!

If you're imply this game wont have good tank, dps, and healer strategies to kill a boss then that's pretty dire.

 

[Pachimari]

Yeah, it's from the official forums. They even reflect the type of headgear you're wearing at the moment on your character.

My character right now looks like this because I was leveling gladiator, lol

Do you guys have a link where I can sign up for the new forum and link my character as well?

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

My character is so SWAG.

C'mon Saturday!!

 

[BlazingDarkness]

So, what time does the game start on Saturday?

 

[Dog food is delicious]

So there's mine.. so far.

 

[rockx4]

If you consider it late Friday night instead of early Saturday then the wait feels shorter!... at least that's what I'm telling myself.

 

[HooYaH]

So, what time does the game start on Saturday?

I think 2AM PST.

 

[SoraanTribal]

Black Shroud definitely has a more open feel. La Noscea and Thanalan feel about the same. Areas like Mor Dhona and Coerthas which, while still neat zones, don't feel as expansive. In most cases, the individual maps are smaller but much more detailed not copypasta like 1.x areas.

Pretty much this.

The areas are smaller in scale than in 1.0, but 1.0 was just a bunch of copy-pasted mess, so it doesn't really count. The areas in ARR, while smaller, are a lot more interesting and fun to explore to me. I do wish some zones were a bit larger though like the higher level areas.

Rounding up or down! The way to mentally pass time more easily.

 

[Timeaisis]

I think 2AM PST.

Is there like a source for this or something? Because I've heard nothing of the sort.

 

[Munba]

So, do the maps feel more open in this version?

I think most of the maps are right, except 2-3 very little. In the other hand, coerthas is really huge.

 

[Negator]

I have no idear who that is, I'll hit you up in Hyperion yo.

They'll probably just do a WoW and just make you change your name if it comes down to enforcement.

Also sweet, someone else on Hyperion!

I hope you guys have an awesome guild, cause I don't know if my RL friends have one!

Zones aren't really instancing.

Yeah that's true, bad wording on my part. But it does make the world feel smaller in a way.

 

[Ferrio]

Blame the PS3.

Best name yet.

5a.m. East, 4a.m. Central, 2a.m. Pacific

[SuperLurker]

I'd rather have smaller zones than those stupid huge corridors they had between all the zones in 1.x.

Is it strange I kind of want to go mining as soon as EA starts?

1am Alaskan. W00t.

 

[Korezo]

This is annihilation, I think my name means. Its what Akuma says after killing with a Raging Demon.

 

[Xux]

Weird only my legacy character shows up

That site's character thing's frozen at the final save for 1.0. New Lodestone should be up on Saturday.

 

[Robin64]

Wow, just listened to the Dungeon Boss music.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tD_aVSZ-Y1o

Seriously, holy crap! This is amazing music. I wasn't expecting to get proper music like in the game, just used to ambience and stuff from other MMOs, not full blown JRPG epics. Much love to these guys!

 

[zeitgeist]

Weird only my legacy character shows up

Yeah my character isn't showing up at all. Made him in Open Beta so maybe it takes a bit to show up.

Yeah, Uematsu's a pretty cool guy. :3

Looks like the lodestone isn't updated at all. My character show up with pre-p4 info.

 

[Negator]

Speaking of awesome music, does anyone have a link to the FF2 battle theme remix from that Ul'dah quest? That was hype as hell.

 

[Jinko]

Sooooooooooo gaf, what do you think the chance of servers shitting themselves for early access will be?

Its a certainty.

Looks like Shopto has sent my game out :O (Kind of early isn't it ?)

 

[Lord Phol]

Blame the PS3.

Classic Move, Aww yeah

Ahh ok, good to know.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/forum.php

That's where I logged into and got my that.

 

[HiddenAway]

So, for whatever reason shopto decided to give me another eu early access code when it switched my preorder status to order and is processing for shipping...

Same here. I don't know if I can give the surplus code away in case it gets me into trouble . I've already claimed my first one...

 

[Xilium]

Was hoping to get 20 across all three classes but then 3102 hit. My EA stuff went in without a hitch though.

 

[Mature]

The new lodestone forum look is pretty slick.

 

[Taruranto]

 

[Red_taiyaki]

This is amazing :O!

 

[cheststrongwell]

Well, I may have wasted my money on this game.

Where ? where ?

 

[Aeana]

Whoever thought up forum signatures is one of the worst people.

 

[daveo42]

Is RAAU NA and RAAE EU then or do I have it backwards?

Other question: If you're early registration code was for EU, will that matter if the copy of your game is actually NA?

 

[rockx4]

Whoever thought up forum signatures is one of the worst people.

Yep, I rarely visit other forums and now I'm reminded are horrible forum signatures are.

 

[Noi]

I can rest easy now. Two more days...

 

[Vashetti]

Same here. I don't know if I can give the surplus code away in case it gets me into trouble . I've already claimed my first one...

Where did you find the new code?

I got an email saying the same thing.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Don't say that!
