    @AA: What were the first four letters of your EA code? If it's RAAU then hrm. If it's RAAE, then somehow you got an EU key.

    But did your name turn gold at any point during this process? If Yes: Lala Paladin for you. If No: Bard. Suck it up.

    Also, the in-game help file on Hunting Logs flat out says that the entry in the Log is just a hint, and that the target can be found in more than just that location at times. So it's not like they weren't up front about the fact that it won't hand-hold you. ;p If you run across it elsewhere...

    Only thing about Saturday I've seen is the start time, and a PSA that they expect 'heavy congestion'.

    I got an RAAU code.

    Ditto. Didn't send me an EU key either, from the looks of it. I'm good for Saturday~ +1 for the PSA.

    Beta over, come back for early access if you have it, otherwise next Tuesday.

    Gear from Odin, isn't it? No idea what the sword is (http://xivdb.com/?item/1677/Zantetsuken?) but the rest looks reminiscent of Odin.

    My personal theory? Some were so impatient for beta access, they have EU accounts (from p3/PS3 codes?) and never realized that MAYBE they need to figure out what they started out with in the first place (because of impatience to be in beta). In other words, shot themselves in the foot because...

    I've kind of been wondering that, too, but it completely would screw over Weaving. I am looking at you, Moku Grass acquisition (at Lv10+ Botany = why?).

    Also the Ahriman mount for, what, 30 days paid? Or was that one of the 60/90 rewards?

    Cliff's Notes: - Create a character as a starting (Disciple of War/Magic) class. - Get that class to level 10, do the level 10 class quest. - You unlock the ability to go to any other class guild to become that class. You get a level 1 starter weapon for that class. - Equip the starter...

    It's not specifying it as a CE on mine, either, probably because - and I'm just speculating here - that it's just a generic early access code and not tied to CE benefits. In other words, probably won't get the CE stuff until Launch Day.

    There was fog in Gridania a few times while I was levelling Friday, and yeah you couldn't see much in the distance. I never saw an actual thunderstorm (with thunder+lightning), just rain.And yes, the wind will indeed blow at your clothing. Saw that during a rainstorm and never noticed until...

    I was wondering about one thing: just how much of the main cutscenes were supposed to be voice-acted. Some of the storyline seemed a touch abrupt in the transition from voice back to text and vice-versa (which parts were and were not voiced).

    Er, I meant to say total connections. Just an idea of the open beta interest, really. 1mil beta apps from P3 includes duplicates, so seeing just what a general census for an OPEN beta is would be interesting, given how things are going now.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I really want to know what the census numbers are for total concurrent connections, unique accounts, etc. That said, I'm glad this is showing up now instead of Early Access. ;p

    BLESS

    It's very very pretty, but it really made me think of TERA (the map mostly). The video wasn't a very big sample size of gameplay and the like, though, imo. The ambience was very good, particularly the part where the thunder is in the background.

    If you mean the one that would complete rank 2? My guess is they deliberately left those out so people didn't accidentally "finish" it and all sorts of random fallout from having the rest available for exp vroomvroom later.

    @Brakthir: P4 notes are unclear and seem to say no (exception: PVP area is pretty much Legacy/1.0 chars only since they can be above level cap of 20). @Nola: It should open Saturday for signup and/or access if you can't get in Friday.

    That's kind of the point, too, unless you want to min-max your stats for your chosen job.

    Not that I know of. My money's still down on Thief being put in as a base class first (nevermind the guild spot in Limsa Lominsa), for all that sweet-sweet Ninja/Samurai Job evolution later on.

    If it's the XXXXXX-XXX-XXXXXXX-XXX (x's not to scale) type code, those aren't valid yet and are for early access. If you're looking for a P4/beta code, you'll have to say hello to the site on Saturday(?) unless you were in a prior beta, at which point login with that account.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Even before the water immersion, Y'shaarj (through the corrupted goblin?) mentions being merely asleep. Dead or not, that doesn't really scream "gone for good, out of the picture" to me. Regarding finishing Klaxxi (don't click if you don't want to know before finishing yourself):

    You mean Y'shaarj found a patsy to corrupt because of it. Totally obvious who is running the show here from behind the curtain.

    Were you in any of the prior betas/Legacy account status, etc. etc.? Or are you coming in fresh? If it's the latter, that could be why.

    I was half-hoping that we'd see the datamining put online by someone by now, but nope.I wanted to see if the numbers changed any from the benchmark datamine.
