| hey guys so I have been doing a lil digging and have discovered that's FFXIV will also be being released on the PS4 which is due for release in Aus on Nov 29th, being that PS4 is going to be a better console. we plan on waiting for the PS4 before we move over to FFXIV, that being said we wont be getting PS4's until Xmas cause we aint millionaires ; ; So that's what we have in mind... sorry to delay it even futher >.> /em looks at keigo ._. but... im not gonna buy it on PS3 release (even tho I bought 2xPS3 for it like 3 years ago) to only have to rebuy it 4 months later cause I wanna play PS4. anyway really looking forward to playing the new FF with everyone again /em thinks of the good ol days. | |

| Still undecided with 14. Was never impressed with any of the Beta phases, and not really sure if and when I'll get a PS4 (Xbox One priority). So if I do play it eventually it'll probably be on the PC.
As far as I know, the servers are cross platform.
As for 11, good time for games at the mo so I'm in one of those phases away from 11. | |

| Ok, scrap what I just said.
A mate got it at the weekend and begged me to start playing, so I did. Luckily all the bonuses from the first version collectors edition carried over which sweetened the deal a little, started a fresh character though.
I'll try it for 30 days or so (how long friends trial period is before having to pay), and let you know how it is.
Prolly gunna keep me away from XI for some time, as I'm playing other games as well , but if you guys need me on the weekends for events, let me know asap and I'll pop in for a few hours. | |

| ok Manni cool, nice to hear from you buddy as for 14 defo keep us posted. Everyone seems to have gone to Odin server. Ace and Nukum full timing XIV and I haven't seen brooky so id assume she's there now. I have seen hempknight playing it ALOT on his ps3 and he said he was making a chara on Odin. haven't heard from Daz either so I can only assume he's there to. as for Homero and Mikexx, sadly I wouldn't know if they even still playing. Kei's being slack and idk what shes doing game wise. prolly still doing diablo III until summin happens, but I know she has her FFXIV game for PC so she can play if she wants to. Anyway come see us soon. tc buddy | |

| K akk, thanks for relaying the info.
We got in to Cerberus (EU server), at the moment its a matter of get where you can, it took a few hours just to find an opening, then after that hurdle re-logging in takes a while, all the EU/NA servers are still overloaded, by a lot.
I'm actually finding it quite fun at the moment, big improvement from the V1 calamity. It's probably due to it feeling more like FFXI than it ever was before. From the way it just kinda feels to play now (and the character interactions to the cutscenes) down to a hell of a lot of monsters looking IDENTICAL to their FFXI counterparts.
Quests and such are easier to do, in terms of finding them and soloing them, at least in the early stages. I've only partied up so far to do guildhests, this is where it differs from XI quite a bit, instead of standing around you can basically put yourself in a queue and it will automatically put you and others in a party together at random (filling the required jobs of course tank/healer/dd etc). You can still do it the old fashioned way by shouting for people or if your with friends form ya own party and do em that way. Seems its also a requirement to do story quests where it pops ya in an instance with an objective, all in all, guildhests are a bit like Assault.
When not doing that stuff you can party up just like any other mmo and level grind.
I'm just banging through it right now, all mmo's are good at the start, will see how it does after a week or so. | |

| cool cool I cant wait to start plaing it but I bet that ps4 will be sold out over here then will have to wait till march or summin daft... then I bet XIV wont be released till summin like August 2014.... just to piss me off I reckon ; ; still im glad your enjoying it to start... I'd think it would be more fun also if you can meet up with ppls from the LS least that way you got extra bodies you know you can rely on | |

| I could start badgering you to get it on PS3....
One thing I forgot to mention is the quality of the servers, even with them overloaded to buggery, I've never experienced any lag, and like in FFXI you can't see most of the players in Jeuno from the lag, Haven't seen any of that in XIV so far. | |

| Will do as soon as its viably possible. The lead dude of FFXIV said at PAX (a gaming convention) that server migrations will be available 'soon'.

| I'm practically checking hourly as of today for server transfer services (were well in to mid-sept now).
Where abouts are you guys in terms of levels, story, potency of Tiks smell?
Gladiator 28 Marauder 18 Miner 20 Blacksmith 19
I'm not far after joining a grand company.
I haven't been on it shit loads, don't usually play till around 7pm, I slowed down when you guys got it, wanted to be around the same point. | |

| Be nice if SE pulled their fingers out and got server transfers up. I think they're lagging behind, still having to queue pretty much every time I log on, I reckon their are waiting for things to level out instead of going full throttle on huge server loads, there's no doubt people will leave the game after a few weeks (after the free period) and numbers will drop significantly. | |
