    Asian MMOs generally don't have auto AFK. That said, Phase 3 did have auto AFK kick so they were testing it at some point. This doesn't seem to be true. The game itself has been lag free for me all Saturday (when they had no pop caps) and later Sunday. The instability is almost all coming...

    There was only one server last night that you could create new characters on - Sargatanas (Legacy) I doubt they will open the current servers for char creation tomorrow - so they need to open some new ones. Honestly I don't think the additional players will be that huge, the only people...

    GW2 also had multiple multiple hour long downtimes for some servers in the first 2 days. This is a networking issue, there is nothing wrong with the game itself.

    Also most the people have gotten their EA code by now, so it's probably butter smooth. The e-mail I got from them was post dated 3 minutes after I entered my code, but I didn't get it until 24 hours later. Their mail queue must have been huge.

    Doubt it, you won't get your CE items until you punch in your code which means people won't wait until the 30th.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    No one gets their CE items until the 27th, after you enter your game code. Or if you are legacy and already have game code entered.

    Do you guys not read the instructions from the emails you are getting? It says exactly what websites to go to enter the first code and then you get a page with a link to login and enter your second code.

    And most likely Ranger when they get around to adding that class.

    MLB 2013 season

    I found a good piece on ESPN Insider that compares the numbers between the leagues, can't find the Fangraphs one. Yu and Ichiro target 4,000 This guy thinks even 4k strikeouts is possible for Darvish.

    MLB 2013 season

    It's the Baseball Hall of Fame, not the MLB Hall of Fame. Someone on FanGraphs already did the research to determine how much stats from NPB translate/are comparable to MLB and they fell in between AAA and MLB. Granted, not a lot of players from NPB have done well in the MLB - but the huge...

    No, Early Access is only for Pre-Orders and Legacy players. But you can get the digital normal version from Amazon for about $30 plus $10 in credit - gets you the EA code, Moogle Cap, and a minion.

    When you said cheap, I thought you meant cheap for a gaming keyboard. That thing you use is a piece of junk! Mechanical all the way. I guess if you have wrist problems it's fine.

    Shouldn't be too bad - anyone who bought 1.0 don't have to input any codes which should cut down on the traffic to enter those codes.

    MLB 2013 season

    He has more hits than any MLB player in a 13 year span, that's Hall worthy alone. Extrapolate out what he's done in those 13 MLB years to his years in Japan and he's still probably hitting 4k this season. Sets a good precedent for Yu Darvish - barring injury he could be able to get to 3,000...

    Mostly, assuming you didn't get some beta access code from a European site, created a European acocunt, and then pre-ordered a NA copy of the game. The Regions have to match.
  21. M

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah you can still pre-order. Amazon you get $10 credit (think it ended up being $21ish for me total if you take into account the credit) and you get the codes instantly. Can't speak for GMG, it's probably a little cheaper but less reliable.

    Didn't you see that interview with his lawyer the other day where Matt Lauer basically got the MLB's consent that the lawyer could say whatever he wanted? As long as MLB could also release all their evidence. The lawyer then proceeded to mega backtalk. MLB must have a load of evidence.

    Pretty sure it was getting slammed, they aren't Google or Amazon - they probably can't take a couple million hits/code registrations in such a short span.

    Amazon sent the Early Access code right after purchase, for me at least. The code for the game won't be sent until the 27th.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah you need to buy a copy of the new game to get an Early Access code if you are a 1.0 non-legacy player. I just purchased the Digital version off Amazon for $30, and they give you $10 in Amazon credit so really $20. You get EA code, plus a minion and Moogle cap. Also, on the French FFXIV...

    Let's not forget, this game has a producer who actually has a damn brain and as an avid MMO player, has gone through the same shit the rest of us has in the last 5 years with the MMO scene. Every post/letter he has written has me nodding in agreement - that gives me hope for the future of the...

    My character got un-3102'd around midnight and I tried to do Ifrit this morning but then I was getting Error 90000 every time I tried to enter the instance :> Didn't affect me leveling my subclasses in the open world but I hope that error gets fixed... Mine was doing that too - give it about...

    My 3102 error finally got fixed, but the guy I was grouped with in Bowl of Embers is still in my group offline and I can't leave/disband. Oh well can level some of my subclasses. A lot of them do, the main story ones at least.

    Actually, there is MUCH more communication with this game than with FFXI. I don't think they even had forums for JP players, but I know NA players had no way to communicate with Square Enix if there were issues or feedback. So they are doing a better job, but not much of one. At least there...

    They aren't going to wipe the servers because of a networking/datacenter issue.

    The WoW open beta was pretty smooth. But the hype went into over drive for launch and they were totally unprepared. My first server choice, Archimonde, I never could login to play after the first day because the queue was like 10-15 hours long.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I think that's the issue here. For whatever reason, characters are not being logged out of the servers. Anyone that logs out can't log back in (Error 3102). If you zone into an instance you get Error 90000 and then Error 3102 trying to log back in. The servers right now are full of characters...
