My thoughts exactly. Hopefully they each have vastly different personalities. Judges/Four elemental fiend style. Gaius seems like he'd be the most "fair" ala Rubicante.

Does anyone know how we're going to be able to play phase 3 of the beta?

Will there be a huge new patch for the old client or will there be a new client we have to download? And if it's a new client, where will we go to get that?

If you haven't been in beta, then you will definitely have to download a new client.

From alpha and now into beta, there was one initial installer and then patches throughout the phases. My guess is that people who have previously been in beta will just need to download the "go live" patch" on launch day.

Probably know sometime tomorrow when the emails for the beta codes are rumored to go out. My hunch is its still the old client and its just getting a huge patch, but who knows. Would think they would mention to us we need to download a new client by now especially with how far away the next phase of beta is. New manual is coming soon too.

Edit: Clarify the old client as in the old Beta client, not 1.0 client, that is forever gone :p.

I can't click Next after this error, nothing happens, so I'm going nowhere.
I'm going to assume/hope it's because it's early and it'll get fixed when we officially are told to start downloading... :/

Edit: Fixed, thanks a lot!

You need a code to redeem on the PS3. If you are not press related like me, you need to wait for tomorrow and then check your email. Good luck ;) .

Ok dumb questions time.
Anyone know if a PS3 account might be xferrable to PS4 somehow?
I would think an account should be an account.
But I imagine they have not even begun to mention PS4.
I assume if I buy the PS3 version then I will also have to buy the PS4 version again and then xfer things?

Your account will work across all platforms this game is on - ps3,ps4,pc. Currently to play on PC and PS3 you have to buy the game for EACH platform. Nothing has been said about the PS4 version, however I suspect you will have to purchase that edition as well. But you do get your account and characters on all platforms.

Rep post from Rukkiri confirming they are going to let you pick voice language and subtitle language separately from client language. (as well as looking into an option to cut voice volume off entirely)

Cool, I hope this is also true for the ps3 version.
Don't feel too confident about picking the Japanese version of an MMO to play mostly with people with the client in English, sounds like a recipe for disaster ahah.

C'mon invite...

Client/updater looks better, finally you can check if the servers are up.

Trailer is ridiculously good, so hyped :O
