I'm going to try to clock some more time into this now that there's a significant update along with the open beta. Hopefully I have time this weekend, but if not, I'll be sure to give it some attention next week.

I'm trying to do that to. I went to the tester site, but I can't loging because the servers are saturate. To donwload the client you have to go to the tester site https://dev-na.ffxiv.com/ loging there, and them donwload the client, but there should be a lot of people trying to and the servers are saturate.

I've been playing on the Lindblum server as much as I can, which isn't much because I've had constant server time-outs.
This is to be expected, but what wasn't expected is that even with my super-rig this game brings my comp to a crawl in most areas. Not much to comment on, though my stamina bar disappeared.

Here's a shot of me taking a dump because the beta hasn't added the bathrooms yet.

And here is a bunch of people involving my character in something that isn't my business.


Other than that, I'm lost.

Use uTorrent or something like that, and then you can just torrent the updates, goes MUCH faster. I did that and all of them came within a few minutes, one of them that takes too long is the big file so it may take a few hours.

But I did all that but when I want to log in, I just cant.

Crooked, i'm the same, i played for about an hr total, but I have no idea whats goin on. They just throw you in, don't explain any of the mechanics or any of the words they are using. I mean a shop can't just be a shop, and the map just can't have place labels on it, it has to have a ton of other words scrawled on it.

Okay I finally got in and started playing for 1 hour as well.

Mouse movement and input lag is annoying, so I hooked up my Dualshock 3 and mapped the buttons in and I was good to go (but it still has delay lag for menus and all).

Character customization is decent, I cant even rotate my character to see it from other angles, no good :(

Now my PC is pretty strong, can run Crysis games at 35 to 60 FPS, but this game is weird. Graphically it is no visual beast, but the damn thing lags too much.
When I wa sin Aion beta you could fly all over the place and it wouldnt lag as much as this game does.

And I also agree with Tomarru, the very beginning is very bad, it took me ALOT of time just to figure out how to manage to join other people after you get off the ship.
I have also no idea how to get into battle at all, its too complicated IMO.

Aion was much better IMO, easier to get into, much better customization for your character, much more beautiful art and visuals...etc.

One thing I do give kudos though is the gamepad, it is so awesome they did this.
Easy to hook up and map them, I wish more games (Guild Wars 2 in particular) could do such a thing...but I know they wont.

I am going to play it now and hopefully I can dive into action and not get lost in the game all confused :(

I see your love for your new kb+m setup has faded already. Adapt and you won't want to use a gamepad in games like GW anymore.

It's sorta ironic how unintuitive this game is, despite being streamlined in many ways for a console release. It's not surprising though. It suffers from a lot of the same issues that FF11 did.

I played for like 2-3 hours, i stopped and deleted it.

This game is not friendly I tell you.
They dont explain properly or dont give you basic tutorial and guide you to your first adventure, just tons of text you have to read, and some of the NPCs starts talking "ye old pirate yarr" type stuff that I cant even understand it...text!

The game lags too much and it has delay for anything you do., just not fun.

IMO Aion is much better, it is more friendly beginner to guide you through until you can go on your own and start killing and getting XP and doing quests and whatnot.
And I didnt have one graphical issue with that, ran super smooth and all.

Now both are supporting monthly fee, if going by betas, both had open betas, Aion would be the one I would definitely get and pay for (not that I will).

Anyways, I deleted the beta.

This is exactly my reasoning for my rant about MMO releases, this is very much a rushed release, just so many things wrong with it which have all been listed above.

Good, because it really isn't worth it. You should probably keep an eye out on some of the action-oriented MMOs that are coming out within the year, since you like action-games so much(or well I seem to recall you did).


As for this game, words can not describe how shitty the update system is. I swear, SE is run by chimps. This by far is one of the worst OB's I have ever seen(top 3 easy), and considering that it isn't uncommon for MMOs to have issues on OB, that really is quite an accomplishment.
