This update client thingy BADLY needs a mute button :/

[Edit]: Ahhh, that's better, forgot Windows 7 has a program mute.

How? It's driving me nuts.

Bottom right corner of windows taskbar thingy, left click on sound icon, click "Mixer", lower the FFXIV client slider to 0.

Mine seems ok... been running for 4 for hours now, no crashes... terribly slow d/l but it happily maxing my upload...

2:30 hours and 28% done, not bad.

argh finally figured out I used another log on but I cannot get into the site now.

It is currently under maintenance *cries*

I guess ima be leaving my PC on overnight when I am finally able to DL the client

 

[bakes0310]

56hrs till dl, guess ill wait until they release a beta, besides i could only make one of there schedule times

wooo I thought the site would be on tomorrow.
Nice one downloading client now as well!

To speed up the download process you better have a net limiter of some kind since if you leave it on max upload it will inhibit your download speed.

getting update failed now, anyone else with the same?

 

[Marine Iguana]

Damn forgot about this only just getting the installer

I left it on all day but didnt realise about it swamping my connection with upload so i got 10% done... Now its limited to 20kbps but my download is still pathetic.. maybe ill get it done by saturday...

Try open the torrent with any other torrent client. Speed isnt fantastic, but will probably be more stable and easier to forward ports etc. than the official launcher.

Hope you all manage to get it sorted for tomorrow!

 

[Mahnsikir]

51.7% and no download rate for ages now :S

Anyone got any further?

EDIT: no wait its moving yay, right as im shutting down.

How do you do this dude? I can't find a .torrent file anywhere I'm getting a ridiculously low speed, and I'm guessing my router is rejecting incoming connections.

Anyone know what ports the updater uses?
