# "FINAL FANTASY XI: A Shantotto Ascension"

Anyone know where to get those 2 for cheap?

[Draylo]

Same here, I wish that the idiots who can't apply will stop trying to download the client so I can freakin break 1MB/s.

I'm at 10 hours for each download, except one that finished fast lol.

[Kuishen]

To help those who are unable to get in, I have bought every expansion, posted on the forums, and transferred to an SE account, and I got in.

Good luck folks.

Same, only also changed to stupid ClickAndBuy shit soon after they announced it was going to be mandatory.

Just double checked flashget, now i'm at 1.8MB/s lol.

god this finally got me to change to crysta and i still can't get in

Dunno why it's taking some way longer than others. When you said in ls that we could download it I went and started, at 50% now for all 3 (not including that one tiny one)

Try steam perhaps?

So I had the option to enter through POL, and now it's gone? It just disappeared when I relogged.

[Gokulo]

Applied, now to download on my slow-ass home connection D;

Glad I F5'd- was just about to transfer to that bullshit. I'm stumped. Aside from me having the same user name on the official forums as I do here on BG and filling in on PetFoodAlpha from time to time, I have no idea what could be blocking me.

[Rocl]

Got in.

Here's what I changed, I guess:

Logged into Official Forums.
Switched to Crysta. Waited for transfer to complete. (I logged off and logged in POL a few times)
Raged, posted.
Went back and logged into FFXI, logged out.
Logged out of Official Forums.
Logged back into Official Forums.
Got in, posted.

I wager you need ClickAndBuy/Crysta and you should probably re-log into the Official Forums afterwards.


(And you can't play without those files!)

It's not Atomos:

Along with the launch of the test server, a new World “Undine” will become available. You can copy your character data in the game over to “Undine” and be able to try out new content.

Special Icon for the Participants
Once the application for access to the test server has been processed, a crystal-shaped icon will appear next to the character name of your forum profile.

Ooo, a crystal

Downloading the files now, will be interesting to try this out.

[Miroku_Asura]

Got in.

Bah ><

[Rocl]

Jesus nearly 6GB? ffffahhhh

Buy the Ultimate Collection on either Steam or Amazon, then you can get a Destrier Cap also. ^^

[DNAval]

for the people inside, do you have capped stuff? those moggles in the pic do they hand out every item in the game? post anything!!!!!

can't fucking believe i'm dropping 20 dollars on expansions to get in..... /sigh

[Draylo]

lol best SE money making scheme off this game.

[Zzsark]

I'm actually surprised, /knock on wood, at how fast these files are downloading. Gonna be some epic lulz to be had on this server I'm sure. Wonder if we get to test VW pt2.

That's what I did. Used the cap on one character, and the other code to get my alt all of her expansions finally.

Almost done downloading :D no crystal icon though yet :<

You have to download and install a whole new version of FFXI basically (it seems like?) before you can play on the test server, so I doubt anyone is in yet.

Edit: Above poster may make a liar out of me. Jerk.
