[Ghostsix.Midgard]

Man all of the errors you ppl are posting makes me nervous D: Everything was fine when I left for work -- I dont get off work for another 4hrs or so ~ I'ma be angry if it crashed out at some point today

It's alpha, and SE, people need to expect the worst.

[Cautery]

This is batshit crazy... on 2 fucking computers I cant even open the program to start the dl and it crashes... >_>

[bluefan]

Yay, my FFXIV info fix! Now I won't kick a puppy today!

Wield your weapon with blinding speed, increasing action gauge regeneration. Hitting the target causes an enfeebling effect which grants attacking party members the ability to absorb HP.

For archer? Nice. They've got a pretty nicely rounded set of abilities there.

[SephYuyX]

Shit ton of abilities for an aplha version.

[Leylana]

All ready to go on Thursday, yay!

So I guess my card wasn't an issue? Idk.

[ClassicRed]

This is batshit crazy... on 2 fucking computers I cant even open the program to start the dl and it crashes... >_>

As you stated someone sent you the link :3 yours is probably borked


And I seem to be backwards :3 the more local connections I have the faster I go ~ The more remote the slower I go......

[Kirb]

Shit ton of abilities for an aplha version.

Yeah, I'm surprised. Usually alphas have like, a handful.

[Lurking Badger]

Lemmings, nice.

[altwight]

Well this is great.

I get accepted into the beta but i cannot download the patch at all. 0.0kb/s 90% of the time managed to get 4% done over a 9hour period. Wrote on the beta forums and no one is any help.

Toocool.

[Fanfon]

I'm pretty sure the last three abilities sruon wrote in his first post are lancer abilities, I recognise invigorate from the xiv main site.

But nice job, have a princess

[Chupitaplayer]

Yeah, I'm surprised. Usually alphas have like, a handful.

Maybe SE will add tones more abilities for retail but i hope they dont overpower the clases i dont want a easy game.

[Spira]

seems like theres no way to listen to the music again once your install is completed.

[Seanr]

Wield your weapon with blinding speed, increasing action gauge regeneration. Hitting the target causes an enfeebling effect which grants attacking party members the ability to absorb HP..

Drain Arrow Samba? lol

[sruon]

Drain Arrow Samba? lol

Probably a lancer ability, sorry ;x

[Purrrfect]

Maybe local was a mistranslation for incoming and remote for outgoing?

[Draylo]

Same -_-

[Asai]

seems like theres no way to listen to the music again once your install is completed.

The two tracks that are not the track on the 14 site (main theme or w/e) are recorded but it was basically a mic to a speaker so it sounds bland...

[Thunderblaze]

Well this is great.

Toocool.

Fix your ports/firewall/antivirus/etc. Or give your account to someone who knows how to download.

I was given the link for mine from them... doesn't open for me.

[SephYuyX]

Posting this for someone since spam blocker on xi sucks.

dir "c:\program files\squareenix" /s > c:\xiv.txt

[Purrrfect]

??? - Aim for the heart, dealing projectile damage and charming the target. Increases attack by ** when attack from the front.

Please tell me I'm not the only one that made the connection...

[Purrrfect]

I was given the link for mine from them... doesn't open for me.

If the link can vary, maybe it is ip-specific?
