The FINAL FANTASY XIV™ Thread: SRKGD's Goin' Balls Deep #Kreygasm

So no walking? I love walking in a virtual world of a mmo.

Last part of that… My computer just downloaded it all and replace everything lol.

Well I guess I’m sleeping after I make dinner on Friday, wake up at 2am and play til Sunday 10pm, debating on sleeping in between

Last weekend before school starts… Fuck, I need to go all in, because my online presence will drop sharply once the semester kicks into high gear.

If you’re still getting Error 3, here’s how to fix it:
-On the page asking for your Early Access code, scroll all the way to the top and click on your UserName.
-From there, select Settings.
-You’ll be taken to a Personal Information page.
-At the bottom where it asks for Preferred Language, select English (US).

Also,
Looks like most communities out there have picked out their servers.


In short:
** Gilgamesh: RP, Something Awful, BlueGartr, Reddit, LGBT

  • Excalibur: SA, reddit
  • Ultros: NeoGAF, Allakhazam, Giantbomb
  • Leviathan: GameFAQs (lol)
  • 4chan: Excalibur, Ultros, Ragnarok, Moogle*

Since you’ll suckas are hitting up Leviathan, good luck with Leviathan.
But I want to be with my waifu SWBeta, so it looks like I’m going Leviathan.

Damn, I was hoping BlueGartr or Allakhazam would be on Leviathan.

BlueGartr was the linkshell I and pretty much veryone else looked up to back when I was a kid playing FFXI in it’s early days. Those niggas weren’t playing games! This was when Nidhogg was serious business and Kirin was the strongest HNM/boss in the game. Sidebar: BlueGartr was also how I was learned about Nightwish and Initial D #Kreygasm

BlueGartr was THE OG english-speaking premiere endgame linkshell in FFXI. Those cats are legends.

Too good! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Speaking of FFXI, that game was tough as nails but the reward was awesome. Favorite moment: leading a Dynamis linkshell and getting Aegis shield, maxing out choco digging(this had to be one of the most well-kept JPN-onry money machine secret back then), capping blacksmithing and walking around Jeuno with a full-signed hachiman set(must’ve burned 10m+ easily to make that damn set) and finishing CoP with static crew(rajas ring son!!!). Fun times.

So glad I’m almost done with school and I have an easy ass job. I’ll probably still game hard on this shit, despite school. I’m a slacker with a 3.5 GPA. :tup:

Finally got past the Error 3 code. So hype… LALAFELL (TARU) TANKSSSSSSSS.

Anyone use PC?

post what you use to play ff14 and your benchmarks

So I input my EA code on the website and it goes through successfully after a few tries, eventually getting a successful confirmation and my code. The only caveat to this…the code I was given was for the EU region. Why do you do this to me SE :sad:

Forgot to post what I use. A custom built 17.3" Sager laptop (from XOTIC PC) with an i7 CPU, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA GTX 680M, 75GB SSD and 1TB HDD. Want to know anything else about it (that you didn’t read in the benchmark), just ask.

I’m ready to fuck up some GameFaqers.

I broke down and ordered the ps3 keypad. Eff it it’s only 25 and if i dont like it i’ll send it back.
Should be here on sat so i’ll give it a few days.
Sadly Logitech unifiying link does not work for ps3 so i’d have to pull my pc keyboard and mouse recievers and plug them both into my ps3 if i want to go that route.

Sadly the only pc that runs this with the settings maxed and beyond i have right now is my work machine which i do not play anything on.

Man, got early access, had everything ready. Then work today asked for voluntary overtime. I couldn’t turn it down, man. The pay is too good ;_;

I’m running it on a USB Microsoft Keyboard from Amazon, which I paid $13 for. works well for me, because if someone gets in the way of the screen, i can use it to bash their heads in with… JK wouldnt do that to my kids

didnt get to play much during open beta due to work.im bout to go in on this early access though.

Uhhhh… SE Just sent me an Email 5minutes ago with my early access code… What were the codes i entered yesterday LOL

so will this shit up and running at 12 am saturday? bout to crack out all weekend if so.

early access is 2AM PST on the 24th. I am not sure if legendary players get it on the 23rd or not.

boo. that’ll be four o clock in the midwest. oh well, wake up saturday then.
