    Awesome. Now I just have to wait to go to lunch cause my work network blocks that shit.

    Haha. Yeah, I definitely memorized my 18 digit password. Did you get an RAAE or RAAU code though? That's the part I'm worried about. I'm not super concerned about the error 1's and 3's right now. That just requires brute forcing your way through. But it's pointless to get through that if you...

    If you're going to post tweets, you need to include this one: FINAL FANTASY XIV @FF_XIV_EN 10h We have temporarily suspended the ability to redeem codes on the pre-order site while we continue to investigate the ongoing issues. Also, regarding "lag," I know during the beta someone...

    It's funny, because Incognito is one of the dirtiest players currently in the league. Fuck that guy.

    Yeah, I think it's $20. You'll have to wait until release from what I've heard though.

    It's bullshit. I agree with Sutekh! The game should also target the mob and automatically walk me to it, and then pre-select the attacks so that I auto kill it. What the fuck is up with having to navigate and press the buttons myself? It honestly sounds like Neverwinter would be more your...

    Not sure where you're getting unpolished from, Sutekh. I think it's incredibly well done. Either way, I've played several recent MMO's in the last few years, and this is the only one I've had the EQ type feeling of wanting to log back in immediately.

    That's why I'm waiting. And I know they're different servers, but anyone else find it interesting that the client download servers ran so fucking awesome, but a code input website can't handle this traffic? I mean, I downloaded the client at a blazing speed. Seems strange that they'd have...

    It's strange that their advice is to keep trying to submit, even though it's shitting out bad codes.

    This. Even if I could get through the first page, I'm worried that people with EU codes will end up going through a very painful process to fix it. Might be better to wait til it's all fixed. As far as above (Nehrak), people have said they got NA codes from GMG and Amazon and once through...

    No shit. The lvl 10 gathering quest for botanist was 99 of some logs. I was like, shit, I wish I'd not used those up for carpentry.

    There are definitely different mounts. The CE edition gets a coeurl mount, and I know there is also magitek armor. Would imagine there's other stuff too. And archers can fire on the move. Don't think I remember any abilities that I couldn't use on the move.

    Well, I'm done trying now anyway. When the "Are You Sure?" popup comes up, it won't let me click confirm anymore. Not sure what that's about.

    I've been reading all the reddit stuff while constantly hitting redeem over and over. Some people said if you get error 3, just keep trying and you should get it. Those people got it in like 5 tries. I've been doing it for hours. Other people have said you need to reload the page every time...

    The saving gear sets thing is super important. You basically get a little window where you can save a gear set for every class, or multiples for a single class if you want (and I'm sure end game will have raid sets, etc). It works very well. My only issues with it are if you get rid of an...

    Anyone else find it a little bit concerning how they've handled this and the 3102 errors? They've basically remained completely silent on it.

    That's Cofield. Who broke his hand today. Wonderful, right? But it's sounding like it might be a 3-4 week heal time. So he may end up playing with a cast week 1 or 2.

    Redskins had a shit load of injuries this game. Cousins: Ankle Cofield: Broken hand Hankerson: Knee Robinson: Thigh Thompson: Arm Williams: Knee That's a QB, NT, 2 WR's, and 2 RB's. Hopefully Cousins doesn't have a lisfranc (already lost a player to that this season), Cofield's will...

    For some reason I thought it was 25 just based on GC's. But I'm probably wrong. The post above mine makes it look like 20, since that's directly from SE regarding mounts. Also, not sure how legit this is, but apparently it's for just an early access key. I'm assuming it's cause legacy players...

    Yes, the 30 day veteran reward is a free character reset. Can change race, sex, and appearance.

    The problem with waiting on GC's is I want a chocobo. That's going to be one of my first goals, hit 25 and get my chocobo!

    I have no idea. Been doing a shit load of reading about this game today. I'm getting an EQ, I can't wait to log back in, vibe today. Just from reading this link: Free Company, Grand Company, and Linkshells That's definitely not concrete information as PVP isn't in game yet. Also, P4 didn't...

    So from reading about GC's, it looks like PVP may be GC oriented. Has anyone thought about which GC to join, assuming we'd like to be in the same one as a FC? I know you don't have to be in the same one, but I figure it might be a good idea to have an "unofficial" GC.

    Speaking of, I thought the one in Eastern Shroud was pretty awesome. You had to have an 8 man party and go to the correct spawn area, and boom, it spawns a FATE. Gave a minion as the reward with no xp. Apparently there more of these. Was definitely fun, and it was a much tougher fight than...

    Not sure how I played as long as I did and didn't see fog nor thunderstorms. I also somehow missed the wind. Apparently it actually blows in a constant direction? And moves your clothing?

    Holy fuck. That looks...complicated. Comprehensive chocobo guide And for above, does that mean pink is actually better than green? The item level is lower, but it's got more stats (and difference of 1 magic def).

    Can anyone detail what we'll need to do when early access starts to get a chocobo? Is it story quest right after turning Ifrit in? The one post about it mentions fates and grand companies, so not sure what needs to be done. I'm imagining that'll be the first thing I'll want to do when it comes...

    I agree. I wish it had been longer just so I'd have a chance to level up a tank class and try it out, and to do a few more dungeons runs trying out different classes. I'll probably end up grinding out my main class once the cap is gone. It may be a case where lots of people change what their...

    Anyone have any clue when GMG will send out pre-order codes?

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    That's also led to frustration among a lot of us who weren't in P3. I know personally I had no clue what to do with my pre-order code. There was no information on getting access to open beta, and very limited on what to do with your codes.

    I'm not sure what it is about this game either, but I played it pretty much all damn weekend. Probably a good 40-50 hours. The 3102 shit will likely cost them a lot of players. I know my brother in law basically said fuck it and he had been enjoying it before that. He even rolled a char on a...

    I'm assuming you do this as opposed to quick synthesis for the extra xp? I'll have to hit you up once live hits about how this works. I'm also one of the ones who had almost no issues. I got DC'd once, and hopped right back on. They just took the servers down early though, but apparently will...
