I just unlocked mounts and can use my fat chocobo I paid real life money for. It was worth it.

I remember that dungeon run, was fun. On another note... I'm struggling to find a class to stick with. I went from THM (lvl 19) to ACN (lvl 27) and I've just started a GLD which I'm hoping to stick with until 50. Never used a tank type class before and they seem to be higher in demand compared to the other two classes I've played.

Welp, decided to resub and I updated the PC client just fine. Now I'm trying to install the game on my tablet and a fresh download is taking forever over WiFi (I want to gather/craft on it). Would it work if I transferred the game directory on my PC to an external HDD and upload it to my tablet? Would it at least reduce my patch time? I'm looking at 4 hours here.
Also looks like my security token is dying after 7 years. Still got two from the PC/PS3 CE though.

Oh, should have just mentioned Surface Pro 2. I'll likely be using a dualshock 3 if I can get it to work.
Hello. Can I get an invite? I'm Malnil Metatron. I started on PS3, but only got to play for about 2 days due to real life. Just upgraded to the PS4 version and the beginning areas are rather barren. Thanks.

Just did Odin on the ps4. Yikes the framerate but knew it sacrifice the fps in the world to have the top fps in instances

I've never really gotten into an MMO before (haven't really tried one), but this looks kickass. I love FF, and gameplay videos look pretty solid. Do you guys think I should take the plunge?
if it's anything like controller on PC it'll be fine.
no aus servers afaik. i do believe one of the servers has their community based around aus though; tonberry i think?
yeah i know several people who play this as their first mmo and have really enjoyed it
It's my first MMO and I never thought I'd like one. I'm loving it! I say go for it.

Why is it that I can't finish certain quests? I have two quests that I've done everything for in Gridania and when I go to the person I need to to "turn it in" it only lets me decline finishing it.

Since Ultros is full, is there any alternative or is there no way to join GAF Guild? =/
I started a new game + character just to start playing with other GAF members. I can't seem to get in Ultros, it says the capacity is full. I did submit an application on the GAF Guild website.

You will have to wait for them to reopen it again for character creation.

Ahem, thanks for the link.

Bought ESO earlier this week, which after a few days inspired me to take this up again instead. Brushing the dust off my level 20 arcanist on Ultros and having a blast so far.
Just curious, are most of you playing with keyboard/mouse or controller? I've got the game on both PC and PS4 and can't decide which to use.

Keyboard and mouse is always better in terms of performance.
I've recently enjoyed using a controller because it makes it feel like more of a Final Fantasy game.

It's probably pretty split. Both are viable. I use keyboard and mouse and haven't ever had a problem, but I've never tried controller. Just use what you are most comfortable with!

Me too! I was sure I wouldn't be able to play today, but nope. I'll see how long I can go.

T7 seems like it will be easier to 1-shot once a group learns the mechanics. I know when we wipe in T6, it is frustrating; but when we wipe in T7 I usually laugh because of the glorious nature of the wipes.

Riiiight. A bit curious. Never got into WoW or anything. Thought it got quite tedious fast when I tried it out nearly a decade ago.
Anyhow, I'm curious about this game even so. I tend to play by myself and I ain't go no PS4-friends at all, really. So there's that. But I do like the feeling of leveling up!
Yay or nay?

While its better to have friends the raids etc its easy to get in on any of them and i tend to play by myself too doing the normal level grinding so its a yay from me.

I still want to try the new turns...hopefully we beat Twin soon.
It seems I don't know how to use my class lol.
I just keep attacking and I don't use flash at all. XD
There are SO MANY things I don't understand. XD
I'm in Ragnarok, so I think if I want to join in the GAF FC I'll have to be in Ultros. >_>
BRD? What do you mean?:3
Edit: OK that's a class.
I want to become a Paladin later, is it good? :3
I dunno, as a Paladin and Monk, im pretty much split second reaction time with the controller. The way the crossbar works is great. Feels like an action rpg a good amount of the time, and everything is at your fingertips.

Uh, 6 or more coil 1 runs later and I've yet to see a BLM drop.

You should focus on Turns 2 and 4, the gear that drops there is great for mages.
No wonder you have so many posts in these threads.
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh man
Definitely this - a lot of the popup help system is really good, but the game does kind of throw you in at the deep end in some areas, loads of unexplained TLAs. When I see all the many level 50 people talking in the FC log, it's like they're playing an entirely different game.

If its what I'm thinking, you need to choose a quest reward.
You see the icons of the items in that pop up? Click on one of them!

How do I resize windows using the PS4 touchpad? If I tap it clicks, but I can't seem to drag.
Double tap and hold. Got it figured
Hold L1 and press R3. This brings up the pointer. Put the pointer on the corner of a window, hold with L2 and drag
Learning curve isn't too steep and they do throw a ton of reading material at you right from the start. A lot of things are also pretty simplified as well such as things like stat point allocation.
It's not a huge amount and most of it is pretty simple stuff. A "ton" was hypoerbole I suppose. There's at most a paragraph of text for each topic.
Stuff like this that would be pretty helpful for someone new to MMOs. Gotta read some time, you know!
You'd have problems with end game for sure if you're not willing to do any research.

Actually I think FF14 is perfect entry level MMO (so far), very newbie friendly.
Level progression and difficulty curve balance quite well. Only complain is the map is a bit confusing. Luckily GAF FC members are all friendly and willing to help.
One thing I like most is the friendly community. When you go dungeon with stranger, system will tell everyone if someone play that dungeon for the first time.
Everyone seems to have the patient to brief boss encounter.
