Final Fantasy XIV - A Realm Reborn

If anyone's looking for an FC on Odin a few of us are in White Winds. It's not an OcUK ran FC but it's full of UKers with some USA and other EU folks, and very friendly. If you want an invite anyone can add you (FC name tag is <WIND>) or just pm me on Lithon Thorlean.

Will give one of you chaps a whisper this evening, saw your guys spamming recruiting yesterday! :p

Been having some success with my Archer. We've just gone through Satasha and Tam-Tara. Made a HQ Elm Longbow on my Carpenter and found a bunch of very nice gear :D

Personally I think its a testament to how awesome my Archer is that she can still use a bow wearing those gloves...
 
That gear looks much nicer than what i'm getting at 27 on Conjurer, everything still seems to be the same crappy looking trench coats as at the low levels for cloth.
 
I think the colour of the item denotes it's rarity. Such as green are common drops with slightly above average stats, and pink is the next tier up etc?

I found a pink sword for my gladiator from a treasure chest while doing a levequest which was pretty good. Also the clothing leaves a little to be desired at early levels... Until around level 15 I was wearing something that even a stripper would be ashamed to wear, and I was a bloomin tank class! The only thing that the armour would have deflected would be a few comments about my social upbringing at best!
luckily i've managed to find something that looks like actual armour now so it does get better at least :)

That's what I thought it might be, I'm assuming there may be more etc...

Ha! loved the commend about the social upbringing :)

Do you get initial free game time when buying a boxed copy?

Yes, 30 Days IIRC :) - Though I don't actually know how much it is per month... I guess the same as any MMO. £8-£12
 
Yeah I've been wondering too. All the green items are 'Unique'. The pink item isn't so I've no idea what the colour denotion is.

Also its £7.69 for 'Entry' which is 1 character.
 
Jeez its only 4:15pm and the servers are already full apparently :o

The rest of EU is probably home from work but the UK certainly isn't. Talking about Cerberus btw.

Is there cross server play or do you need to be on the same servers as your friends?

I was thinking of picking this up later but might hold off a few days and see how the launch pans out!

I was hopeful at first as I logged in and it said I was 49th in the queue, but then as soon as I reached the front I got the "server is full" message. Oh well, guess I'll watch something on Netflix while spamming the login button :p

Edit: Love this.

It's funny because if there was a queue system it'd be fine, knowing how long you have to wait you can do something else and it's actually common with big games and shows they've over-achieved sometimes. Without a decent queue system however it's maddening as you can't play without turning into robo-spammer.
 
got home, logged on, 30 in line... looks like it might be getting better (Cerberus)

EDIT: Spoke too soon... :( ''World Full'' ... so it didnt REALLY but me in a queue .... evil lies!
