Complaint: Servers down this week... Fuck. I feel like a cocaine addict or something right about now. >.>
Blowing up 7 blue weapons trying to get a gold to +6 and not succeeding...feels good man.
Would be financially better to have made gold this beta, and on head start use progress tokens blues, to enchant the Lv38 golds...! (progress tokens only go to Lv 37 gear).
Used all my gold for inventory expansions (over 210gold) and getting alchemy to 200 (about 100+ gold)
Yeah I know, that's why I said most. No but seriously, most of the deaths (all?) in early FFXI was due to attacking EM++ with half health, or just thinking you could kill that last enemy before you had to rest, not really hard, but people/I get impatient.
Shit, I had a friend who for the first day or two thought the only way to get healed was through cure or running to his mog house, game was hardcore for him yo!
Lets see... I need a complaint. Oh, here's one!
Can we disable that goddamn text wheel that pops up if you're pushing too many buttons at once? Nothing is worse than overcharging my big mamma-jamma-slamma thunderstrike on a bosses back, and I move to the left and I've suddenly dropped my hotbars to the next page and have pulled up the goddamn battle text wheel. Then I have spend 3 seconds running around uselessly trying to figure out how in the hell to get my shit back to normal. Thank God I've never gotten anyone killed during this.
It's one of the many, many glitches that cropped up in OBT I think. Holding E brings up the battle text wheel, but for some reason hitting E while charging a skill seems to process as Alt+E as far as the game is concerned (which is the shortcut for swapping hotbars I believe). Lil and I have had the same problem all weekend.
More of a question than a complaint, but is there a way to map Alt out of the UI swap? It's defaulted to both Esc and Alt, but when I hit Esc to map a command, it'd show up as "Alt" in the mapping, almost like the game thinks the Esc and the Alt keys are the same. But then when I tested Esc+#, it won't trigger my Alt+# shortcuts, so the game obviously recognizes them as different keys, simply not when setting shortcut keys apparently.
I only use Esc to swap the UI, and it sometimes when I Alt+#, it'd swap the UI mid battle which is really annoying.
Think the worst for me was the chat bug, I';d be logged in the game for around 20+ hours a day, and the chat REALLY got weird, to where changing tabs would make it go back like 15min in text.
It wasn't as bad in the 5-6 hour ranges when it first starts.
Oh yeah, that reminds me. The game would keep syncing my playtime with my party members, so I could be online for 6 and a half hours and suddenly get a "You have been playing for 2 hours" message. We had a couple points where the entire party would get the same playtime message simultaneously, despite us having staggered login times.
Has anyone else experienced what appears to be a memory leak? UI/game gradually becomes very clunky after about 3+ hours of consistent play for me. Not a huge deal since a simple client restart fixes it, but I'm wondering if it's a problem on my end.
I've seen a lot of people having that problem.
yeah i was getting a lot of crashes, shit was annoying. of course it happens at fun times like during boss fights in SM, etc
I got all the chat errors and white artifacting everyones talking about but I didn't have a single crash.
