    It can really help to complete quests, if rather than trying to tag everything, you invite as many people around you as you can into a group. If anyone tags you get it, or if the group as a whole does 30% you get it. It's the only way to complete some of the quests right now. I know, having to...

    Late edit so I'll add one more thing. I am looking after people. I'm looking after the 140 people who have put anywhere between 1-50 hours already into the game on Gilgamesh. I volunteered to run the guild because no one else wanted to. We have long time FoH regulars such as Vorph, Adam and Sean...

    140 people should reroll for what, 5? 10? people who haven't managed to get on Gilg. Mmhmm. We're not rerolling. 0 chance. You can either keep trying to get on Gilg or you can not play with the group. The server is fine for the vast, vast majority of us. I'm sorry for the people that didn't get...

    Reading through the achievements on the linkshell, some of them are quite interesting, like: Armed to the Teeth Obtain a Curtana, a Holy Shield, a pair of Sphairai, a Bravura, a Gae Bolg, an Artemis Bow, a Thyrus, a Stardust Rod, a copy of The Veil of Wiyu, and a copy of the Omnilex in the...

    Thousand Maws is gated after Story Content, but not all the instances are. Halitali for example has nothing to do with the story quest.

    Once 3102 started they clamped down on the server. If you really want to get in, get on mumble, and listen for when the server comes up, because there's a high chance it will be available for new characters. Also, have a character pre-made from the character creation system so you can just...

    There hasn't been any queues. You're talking out your ass. I've logged out and in several times tonight. You can either be a whiny bitch and go elsewhere or you can man up and roll on Gilg. Either way, I don't care. We're not moving 115 people because you have your panties in a bunch.

    That's not accurate. Gilgamesh locked and unlocked at least a dozen times over the beta 4 weekend. We had a steady stream of new players being able to create accounts and log in. If you missed every single window, you haven't been trying very hard and you have no one to blame but yourself.

    Over a hundred people from the boards managed to get in no problem and make their characters. What's your excuse? In other news, the FC is up and paid for so don't worry about sending money. Any officer can invite, just send them a tell

    Due to the game's predominantly negative reception, the president of Square Enix, Yoichi Wada, announced a major shift in the development team in December 2010, with Tanaka announcing his resignation as producer and leaving the company. Naoki Yoshida became both director and producer, with most...

    It's because those dates mean that you actually /paid/ for three months and didn't just stay subscribed while soaking up the free months the game offered

    You can, but keep it to 200, I'm pretty sure I can borrow 5k from two people on Mumble, or even 10k from one, and that will keep it easier in my mind to remember who I have to pay back and how much

    Gilgamesh went available and unavailable several dozen times during the beta weekend. When it got too high compared to other services, it locked, and stayed locked until load balanced out, then it unlocked again. Just be patient and you will get on. Earlier is better, of course.

    Nope. If you haven't bought the game yet you will have to wait for the 27th. If you pre-ordered you can start playing on the 24th. None of us can play until then. Open Beta was 3 days and 6 hours.

    Guilds are also created under the banner of one of the free companies. Last beta I made Ul'dah. For live I will be making ISIS under Limsa Limosa. It's possible that the battlegrounds may go by guild GC and not individual player, to keep guild groups together.
