RE: Balmung is open! - Bopdoot - 01-22-2015
Thanks! I actually did that last night. Â Is there a maintenance schedule somewhere? Â Sorry if that's a dumb question lol. Â I haven't played since 1.0.

SE tries to notify of all planned maintenances on the "new" Lodetstone.

I don't see any upcoming ones, but emergency maintenance is a thing, and will probably happen from time to time. They'll also report that, but due to the nature of such a thing, they should be rare and inconsistent.

Also please note that emergency maintenance usually follows within a 24- to 48-hour span of any major patch. The more content they add and the more changes they make, the more likely they'll discover and hotfix an issue.

I didn't know how hard it was until I tried making another character. Still not in yet.

I've been trying to get on since I bought the game a few weeks ago. This past week, I've been checking during the late night/early morning time slots. Now I have a level 46 on another server, which frustrates me, since I still haven't got on Balmung, and I refuse to pay the transfer fee, but leveling up another character doesn't sound fun. Damn you, Squeenix!

I don't mean to come across as rude, but can people please stop bumping this thread unless it's to alert others that the server is open? Most of us have this thread subscribed specifically so we can get an alert when the server is available and every time someone posts in here (this post included) it gives everyone waiting false hope.

I don't know how well it works, but this site was suggested to me by a friend. I'm going to test it out and see if it actually works based on the real server, or just off the website but for anyone else wants to give it a try:Â http://www.world-alerts.com/
RE: Balmung is open! - ArmachiA - 01-25-2015
So! someone made a program that pings the server to see if it's open and sends you an email if it is, I figured it would be helpful for people:

According to the creator it only checks the lodestone.
RE: Balmung is open! - Enzo - 01-26-2015
Why does Gilgamesh open faster than Balmung when Gilgamesh is significantly bigger than Balmung?...
RE: Balmung is open! - ReforgedWoodenSword - 01-26-2015
Been at it since 4 this morning, refreshing every three minutes. So disheartening...
RE: Balmung is open! - Tywnnvlad - 01-26-2015
Same here, been trying to make a char for my friend for 3 days. Very sad

Deleted text. Â Plz ignore.. sorry!
RE: Balmung is open! - WolfyRipper - 01-26-2015
Came back to FFXIV and all my pals are on Balmung and I've been dying to make a new character on here with them. These restrictions though.Â
Hopefully the "World Tracker" email thing works and I can soon fully enjoy the company of the people of Balmung (and my pals of course!~).
RE: Balmung is open! - Ritual - 01-26-2015
It is ridiculous that it is still blocked, tried all day today and yesterday and nothing, never opened once.
