All servers are open to people from all over the world, but there will the servers will be located in multiple countries so people can try to pick one closer to them.

Good, in 1.0 the response times from Europe to the servers was pretty terrible, especially with position based combat.

Adore all the new tracks (especially 27) and I'm really pleased with all the old ones they've kept, too.

Seems somebody blew the chocobo whistle.

2.0 shouldn't have problems as bad as 1.0, even with international delays. The whole 1.0 engine was more the problem than the server location.

You'll have more fun playing with GAF!

I think beta servers are still located in Japan. But actual servers should be regional based.

Yep, I'm one of them coming out of the woodwork. I played some 1.0 but not on the GAF server. I plan to fix that for 2.0. ;p

Soundtrack is sounding really great right now. This is getting me even more pumped for the game!

By the way, thank you Kagari for the great interview. It was very informative.

Oh wow, they kept dewdrops and moonbeams. 37, I think is another fantastic track. Soken is really great.

Any guesses as to what 58 is? It's as long as a city theme but we've heard them all?

Actually, I think 58 is Limsa. I must have thought I heard it before but it was only a tiny track. It's got that little medley in it that sounds awesome. Wee.

26 sounds like some of the limsa preview music, too.

I don't know how much we can talk about but I think it was even in the preview videos and so on, but outside of the cities as you approach the first landmark areas there's a very small introduction tune that plays. I'm pretty sure that's what that opening song is from the preview Soken made.

We'll have to find out when they actually let us into Limsa :)

What time does it start for the US? It'll only be 8PM for me.

Edit: 37 seems to have Thanalan vibes. Lovely. Man this OST is honestly some of the best music I've heard for a game in quite a while. Bravely Default was at that spot until this morning.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure 58 is Limsa, and 25 & 26 are la Noscea themes. Both of them appeared in the last Tour video, and 58 was at the end of the "Limsa medley" from the other day.

Well the current client already has all the music/icons/maps/models for most if not all the world in it :).

There are icons showing the customisation options out too. A lot of the hair is being mixed and match - some are even going cross gender (works well in some cases, others are just..)

Hyuran face shapes have changed a bit and they don't look so silly anymore (Yes!). New hairstyles outside of the new races haven't been implemented yet but I'm sure Yoshida said that's coming in P3.

Edit: Desu, got any links for the other files? Maps in particular

Maps are not there in one part, there a hundreds of tiles of small map parts, mixed with thousands of similiar looking parts, from what I heard.
