    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well, luckily for you, you still have 2 days to get it sorted out. Unluckily for me, I have 2 days of working/drinking to try to pass the days faster. Drinking isn't helping though as for some reason it's making me stay awake refreshing this thread every couple of minutes. So boring, yet I can't...

    This week has majorly sucked.. and it's getting worse. Little over 2 days ftl. Completely bored all week long after work.

    Ya, for the most part he's right, but there's a lot you can't expect on a new release (if this were one). Would really like to see Waypoints on the maps, be able to assist tanks easier (though I'm not sure if that isn't possible or not with my limited group experience). Abilities will lag given...

    Guess I haven't run across that quest, every quest I've clicked on you could find the zone where the objective was located by clicking the map button in the quest log. Plus you can zoom in/out on the minimap to narrow it down when you get closer. On top of that, if it's a mob, they even display...

    If you click the quest, there's a button "map" within the quest log that shows you the zone that it's located in. The only difference in this game than any other is that there's 2 newbie zones per lvl/city that you can be in instead of the usual 1. Once you get used to it, it's fairly easy as...

    Ya if you're a 1.0 owner, you have to spend money to get early access if you didn't get legacy. Either pre-order PS3 version to get code or upgrade to the digital collectors edition (I think for a reduced price?) for the EA code.

    ... I don't get the whole concept of landmarks, they're using user generated content, so there will probably be TONS. Whose gonna remember shit they'll see once and never again. Ah well, I'll forever be a Sony MMO hater from the looks of it.

    Couldn't agree more, won't touch them as I haven't touched any pvp since the bazaar in EQ that had an arena that I could use while buying/selling. Arenas are the only pvp I miss. Rarely did people go there but it was fun if you got a bunch of different people going, you'd have like 10 lower lvls...

    Good, not great. Thought the only MMO that I've played to 20 that I would call great was star wars, which I quit playing about 10 minutes after I hit level cap and wondered wtf should I do.

    Nice post... now I know I won't be going to Ultros.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I'm probably going to go Ultros myself, not going to risk the over the top high population servers. If they implemented some sort of app that I could starting queueing while finishing up work, I'd be fine with them. But I get off at 7est so most raids start 30-60 minutes after that, don't have...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I'm pretty excited for the game, I actually liked the initial launch up to around lvl 15. So long as the raids aren't all ridiculously easy, I'll probably play for a couple years at least (monk job being the sole reason possibly). Kinda surprised this forum doesn't talk about this game as much...

    That just makes me think that they don't want to spend time balancing it and are focusing on finishing the 8-man. It's good that people are in an uproar about it though. Hopefully there's at least one raid for guilds beyond that of pugs. If behemoth is that, then good.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Basically a MMO is never complete... and every single MMO figures end game content isn't a priority. They let the 1% of the player base be the guinea pigs for end game. Dunno why I just stated the obvious but whatever, it'll never change. So long as they have 2 raid zones, they're ahead of the...

    Love family, 2 out of my 3 cars were from relatives so I haven't had to worry about buying from shady people. My latest car, 2000 impala 19000 miles, 6k 4 years ago.Thank you old people who never drive.

    Probably won't receive it until a couple of days before head start. Haven't received mine either, but with Rift, pretty sure I got head start key about a week or less ahead of time.

    Are they at least challenging enough to last until the patch for the non-legacy servers?

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well if by end game, you mean raiding, I'm pretty sure the game will have that (though some have hinted that it's the rehashed FF end game). And wow, SWTOR, is the only game I can't even remember if it's the only game I haven't hit the cap or not. Frankly not remembering if I did or not just...

    "I'm a fucking idiot, what do I do now?", he said to his wife.

    Well, they could probably prove that she didn't have possession of the car based on the texts and if she reported it stolen. So as much as I'd like to see that happen.. I wouldn't. I'd load the car with drugs, park it in the street near her house and call in an anonymous tip that's she's a...

    Cool... then my yard that looks just like that doesn't have weeds on it, but really who cares, it all gets mowed anyways. (except I haven't mowed my yard in over a month thanks to the 0 rain we've been getting)... Go Wisconsin.

    EQ Never

    Well, if you have fewer options, there's a greater possiblity shit will be balanced, having 40+ options means a great majority of those will not be an option to play. And guilds can't shun players if balancing is constantly happening, because they have no idea who the next overpowered class will...

    EQ Never

    Because when you reach end game, if assassin isn't balanced, end game guilds won't let you play them if you can switch you're abilities.

    EQ Never

    Frankly, this type of shit is bs. If say, I want to play an assassin... I want to play a fucking assassin without having to have hybrid abilities to make him effective, thus diminishing the overall experience because you're not 100% assassin. Balancing is never perfect, so screw fucking hybrid...

    Just wondering the whole switching characters thing, from what I understand, so long as you level everything.. you're allowed to play anything that you leveled. Is there any respec price to say switching roles from Monk to Bard? Thinking I'll just have to hope that at end game everything worn is...

    EQ Never

    40+ classes, pretty positive I won't be playing the game. Wtf do mmos these days insist that you be able to play every single role. I'm tired of being forced to play a role to fit the guild because all you need to do is respec and you have to play a class completely different from what you...

    Was wondering wtf was going on in this thread, and lets just say I'm just gonna pretend I didn't just watch the last 10 minutes of whatever that was, should work out.. pretty wasted as is. Here's to forgetting everything tomorrow.

    As little as I've followed this after the massive fail that EQ2 was, if they announced that it would be release this year, I wouldn't even bother reading further into the game let alone waste my time with the open beta. SOE hasn't put out a quality MMO in a long time, and if they don't bother...

    Similar situation as I can't play much at launch, moving brother into house, fantasy drafts, weddings and such all happening at end of summer (hate the launch date), but ... Damn I'm excited for this game even though MMOs these days are nothing but disappointing. Generally stay away from betas...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    This whole multiple job thing is kinda disappointing. Rift was a complete failure to me in that you had to play a base class in a cookie cutter spec in raids or don't play at all. Will be really disappointed if that happens with this game. If I wanna play monk, I better not be forced to play...

    Anyone know if FF 1.0 had queues?

    Stalker / surveillance help

    Btw.. shooting the landlord would be a bad idea. Pretty sure that'd be a jail sentence in my state if you can't prove he was doing anything wrong. Believe they have the right to enter/leave whenever they want. So ya, move... actually forget what I said, I'd like to see what happens in that scenario.
