RE: The Great Crash of '15 - Gripes and Rants Are Going Heavensward - Caspar - 06-23-2015
The EA got me basically to 57 despite me being very inefficient and taking my time with the story cutscenes and doing a lot of sidequests. I'm satisfied.
I wish I'd gotten the digital copy for PC as I may need to get a new, better computer soon, and that would have been grand. It's a shame I can't transfer my game copy over to the new machine...

Being European has its perks. I've been able to log on and play without alot of trouble, as long I do so in my daytime hours. As soon I try to do so in my nighttime hours, that's where the trouble starts.

There's a maintenance right now, right? I see a Lodestone notification but it's in PDT, and that confuses me.

All righty, back to FFXI then! Good morning folks.

And full as of, I'm not even kidding, a minute later.

Also, just a reminder, better cash in your registration codes or you'll be throttled back to ARR status instead of HW status at the end of the EA. Good luck finding your codes...
Your preorder codes are just for the EA
BWAHAHAHAHA

I checked my email and registered my code for the full expansion before leaving for work.
Also, I managed to get just shy of 59 in the EA. Likely could've made 60 and some progress on Chachan or Judge if I had taken Friday and Monday off, but I'm relatively happy with what I managed in spite of all that. Got stalled a couple times where the MSQ required a level I hadn't reached yet (basically every level from 56 to 59) and resulted in a few extra dungeon runs and hunts to try and make up from the difference. Most notably, I heard a lot of folks complaining about only being halfway through 58 when done with sidequests when the MSQ needs you to hit 59.
... I can only hope things will be easier on Chachan, since he's actually in an FC and stuff. And that I'm right in the Collector's gear giving bonuses to XP for the levels Judge will be slogging through to get DRK up to snuff. We'll see.

I can say that the Collector's stuff does not give XP bonuses, nor does it even have stats on it. It's just for glamour at the moment. Sorry Chacha. D:

Sadfayse, I was kinda hoping at least one bit of it would be like the Warrior of Light helmet 2.0 or something. Extra XP up to 45 or something. Oh well.

I’d like to provide an update on the current situation for some PS4 users who are unable to play Heavensward content, despite having it registered and installed.
The Development and Operations teams remain completely focused on addressing this issue and have confirmed that it could be a result of several different factors. We’re currently finalizing how to address the problem and how to test and confirm the fixes.
We’re trying to complete this as soon as possible, but it may take at least another few hours until we’re able to confirm.
Once again we’d like to apologize to users who are affected by this issue. We’ll be providing further updates as soon as we have them.

Folks should be receiving, if they haven't received already, their expansion registration codes today via email. I hear NA has gotten theirs already, and can collaborate that as I've received mine. Haven't heard whether other regions have received their emails.

I know choosing a guardian when making a character has (as of now) no impact on the game at all, but I cannot help but be a little annoyed that the Au Ra, coming from a country with a different pantheon of deities, cannot have their own guardians of choice. MY CHARACTERS ARE BEING DICTATED INTO BELIEFS THAT AREN'T THEIR OWN!
