FFXIV Closed Alpha/Beta Discussion (Cancelled for this week)

[Spoony]

Congrats, man.

Thank you! I'm proud.

[Reality]

It's actually much further ahead then u think.

I only know what I'm told

If you were told something else, then we'll see who was right when it's released

[Skibby]

Lol, I'm fairly confident this game is not gonna come out by 2010.

[Katlan]

Lol, I'm fairly confident this game is not gonna come out by 2010.

I'm fairly confident you are wrong

[Khamsin]

I can't wait to see what the coveted gear will be, that everyone will want but few people will have even after years of playing either due to failed claims, shitty drop rates, or the inability to get people to help you camp a contested mob for undetermined or extraordinarily long windows. The gear that makes people examine you, and makes people think you're good regardless of your actual skill.

I recommend keeping an eye out for things like that in beta so we know what to shoot for asap once the game starts.

It'll also be good to keep an eye out for the gear that's not overly hard to obtain, but requires a good LS, and is deemed necessary to be considered for parties. You know, the gear that if you don't have it, you're gimp.

0/10

you fail at trolling.

blind optimism =/= knowledge.

I love when people don't know what trolling means, but still use the word ;>

[Lunarhawk]

You know what confuses me
shouldn't square already know how to run servers with 8 years of experience on xi

[SephYuyX]

After watching the recent videos ive come to the conclusion of the first thing I hate.
The selection icon. I dont mind the actual graphic, but the fact that it's on the body, not above it, or next to it. Just feels like it's blocking my view of seeing what the person is wearing when I still want to target them.

[TheMightyQuinn]

Same could be said for blind pessimism.

No one has any idea at this point.

They aren't using playonline this time so their servers should be quite different. I'm so glad they aren't using playonline too.

"In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion."

So...I just proved you wrong, right?

[SephYuyX]

Here's an idea. Shut the fuck up.

That's been bothering me, too. It's distracting and draws the eye far too easily. I see people target themselves in these videos and all I can stare at is the shiny spinny crap. :\

I'm sure we'll get used to it after a while, but egh.

So you're saying they should take play online's hq hostage and get them to run the servers for free and without forcing the users to use PO's shitty service

Fuck yeah.

(seriously tired of running into these gaming communities tagging every single picture on their websites)

How in the heck did you get that out of what I posted? What I was saying is that I'm glad they aren't using playonline anymore and that since they aren't they needed to set up different servers.

(which would be great at last)
