I made sure to schedule mine at the low point of the gaming season. June.

Any non married folks out there that are gamers, whenever they ask when the date is after you propose or accept proposal... June.

June.

JUNE.

Need a bit of clarification. Open beta starts this Friday and head start is Monday the 24th? Anyone can access the open beta and get to keep their chars? Or is that only during head start?

Sorry haven't been following the news lately.

All P3ers are in open beta starting Thursday. All others, Friday. (Japan time) All characters will transfer over to early access and not be deleted unless they find some major exploit or something.

Early access starts Saturday the 24th. Launch on the 27th.

Bullet lists because I can:


Open Beta/Phase 4
  • Starts Saturday August 17 if you haven't done (or registered an account code for?) any of the past betas.
  • Starts Friday August 16 if you have.
  • Download starts on Thursday August 15.
  • Characters will go through to Launch/Live, unless an issue (gil exploit or whatever) requires a character wipe.

Early Access
  • Starts Saturday August 24 in Japan. (Likely the afternoon of the day before, for continental U.S., as with beta.)
  • No expected service interruption between the end of Early Access and the official Launch. The servers won't be taken down even for a little bit once they're active for Early Access.

* Adjusted for Japan's times. Japan will be running Aug 16/17-19, which for the US pretty much means Aug 15/16-18. Past betas have been 5am Japan time, which in PST terms is about 1pm the previous calendar day (it's a 16ish hour difference, going backwards because of the International Date Line).

that doesnt looks right. betas have started at 5am EDT, not japan time. Making it 2am PDT and im guessing 6pm Japan time.

Damnation , this was going to be my first mmo to actually get involved in the site guild after all the years of following FoH and then here , but I'll admit I'm torn on the server.

100% understand on the server choice looking for a popular one , just with my limited playtime between jobs/wife/kids if I can't sit down and play guaranteed with no queue it sends me into Qwerty fits. Well almost......

Also always enjoy launch time of any mmo as my favorite so staring a queue screen during launch and when I can play escalate the fit.....

Honestly thinking about doing a character on Gilg and another just trying a couple classes out and then if not bad on Gilg can play catchup at some point.

If you have limited play time, going to being catching up anyhow :p I'd rather have queues(if we have them at all) and a healthy server after the first couple weeks :p

100% agreed.

Just personal musings more than anything. I could I guess just plan on Rerolling (in name and action) on Gilg after launch if queues are a thing initially and I'll have some of the FFXIV systems more down and learned that I don't currently know. Sorta test the character on lesser pop server.

This is assuming queues to begin with of course.

Didn't realize so many going bard, Maybe I will go black mage instead. I tried in beta and loved the playstyle, even though I am pretty indifferent to the all black armor look, and supposedly that armor is the best or close to the best?

Does anyone want to volunteer as primary crafters? This would be at the expense of adventuring classes (those with unlimited time excluded), and would be expected to continue into live and to level 50 in the crafting class. Obviously, you would be free to branch out at any time. This would be a role for someone who is committed and would be receiving mailbags full of crafting materials used to create items to benefit the Company.

If there is interest, and it makes sense to ya'll, resources could be allocated accordingly.
