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

[Thunderblaze]

I never felt any real ill intent towards alpha testers until that screenshot by Seanr....

Hate all your guts!

Oh well, I'll have some movies to occupy me today and for awhile. LoTR Blu-ray is out today!

Kick your friend for me for helping design this craptastic OS.

I'd go back to Linux if every game could run flawlessly on it

[Dantrag]

Music is soothing, may use this to go to sleep.

Make an MP3 and upload it to youtube lol.

[bluefan]

I can get it for free, but again, just don't feel like doing it at this point. I'll wait til I do some other upgrades like the SSD and Vid card to move over to 7. Vista doesn't give me any issues. Also I'd be doing a complete wipe and install not just a "upgrade".

Well, that's what I meant, a full format install.

I digress though. If people are happy with Vista, I can't blame them for not upgrading.

[Foxer]

Same song as the site. Nothing special.

Considering I appear to be destined to hear it for the next 70 hours - I believe it will start to grate by then.

[Mayareira]

Well, digitalriver.com has a Win 7 student discount for 65 bucks.

Doesn't work in the OS department, he's part of the head team for M$s Cloud computing technology. Google Azure.

[Seanr]

Once again, screenshot or it didn't happen.

For fuck sake, everyone not always fucking trolling

Spoiler: show

The music is somewhat nice -- 70 hours remaining Q_Q

Upload Speed 100 Kb/s
Download Speed 5 Kb/s

Fucking leeches.

[Leylana]

Long update is long. If I fall asleep and it disconnects I may cry... T_T

[Dantrag]

might as well go to sleep now... so you can wake up early and start it over... better than waking up later and then having to restart it. I wonder if you're going to be able to update once you get it done or if you're going to have to wait for it to go live...

[Seanr]

Make an MP3 and upload it to youtube lol.

I guess it's in one of the folders? w/e

Considering I appear to be destined to hear it for the next 70 hours - I believe it will start to grate by then.

Mine says 4 hours bruh, and going down exponentially. I don't know if it is because of the P2P system they have going on or just cuz I have FiOS.
It does say i have 15 remote connections and 30 local

[drwaffles]

Finally getting a decent-ish download speed, ~50KB/s (lol), 3.3%, many long hours to go.

[Kirb]

So they're using a BT tracker system for updates now? That's kind of heartening.

[Cautery]

I don't plan to update to W7 until I buy some SSD for my computer, along with a new fkn video card.

OT

Fuck SSD. They are incredible fast when empty but become so slow when they are full...

Buy a Velociraptor...

/OT

The picture of the client makes me horny... and sad..... DO WANT!

[Dantrag]

Suppose you've never heard of TRIM? Natively built into windows 7 too.

[Dantrag]

Used to have one, it fried in about 4ish months. I hate WD...

[Cautery]

Do the client ask to login before it starts to download?
