Chance

It is a good thing I had a lot of pent up rage, makes it that much easier to bully people on Dead or Alive 5.

I think I should go into Cryogenic sleep for like 3 days and hope everything is fixed then lol. Oh Chance would be eating at the Bismarck at a private table with a reserved seat for his fat bags of gil.

The thing is, there aren't any "low population" NA/EU servers. They're all - seriously, all of them - bursting at the seams. The only "low population" servers are JP servers. Yeah they either need to strengthen their servers or double the amount of Servers we have now. I honestly just feel like they made this game for a only a handful of people to play, I don't think they were expecting it to be popular. I just hope they do something before we have to start paying for this, cuz like many people said it's only going to get worse.

If they are gonna ask us to move to lower populated servers, I hope for my inner rage's sake that I can move my character to them or stuff is going up in flames (Ok not really), but seriously. I like how I have played a total of 3 hours today, and that's good compared to what some of the rest of you got to play...so much for early access. P.S. :frustrated:

On the topic of the main questline, does it really force you to group up for a dungeon or am I mistaken and have managed to screw up somewhere? Because I'm too much of a wuss to use the duty finder by myself. ;__; Once you hit level 15 you'll need to do three dungeons to progress the main scenario, and you will need a group for these. You'll either have to use the Duty Finder or find a group on your server. Touche to the sig Ashren! :lol:

I wonder if there is a light at the end of this tunnel, Im tired of being punished for doing my main scenario quests lol.

I know I should expect this on release, but seriously so many errors, you fight one another pops up, and it always has to do with logging in or Instancing. I'd almost them rather just say wait till release and everything will run smooth as a dream, than get constant chunks of my playtime taken every couple of hours. I'm a square fanboy and all, but unfortunately I wasn't born patient. Oh well though, sucks for us I guess.

Ain't Nobody got no TIME for error 10102 or 9000! Don't judge me, that tone just popped in my head.

Chance's would most likely be his three six-sided die blocks. Reasoning shouldn't be hard for most people to figure out, though it does have multiple meanings .

You guys are making me wonder if the amount of jobs available is gonna rival FFXI's after a few expansions. I would love if it did, simply because there would be more variety.

Unless Dark Knight uses an Axe now I don't see that happening. Remember that Jobs are just extensions of their Class, they don't use different weapons from the base class and non of Marauders abilities strike me as being very Dark Knighty. And to answer the question I already got the class I want, Black Mage, though if not that then a REAL Summoner class... even though I know that won't happen. Because no class uses either of the Dark knight's weapons (Great sword/ Scythe) I sense them either making a new class (Executioner maybe?) with Dark knight as the Job, or they allowing a current class to use a second weapon. Conjurer's going from wand to staff is a good example I would think, or maybe how Gladiator's use Swords AND daggers. It would make sense either way. Oh plus I feel like the marauder skill set suits the dark knight more than the gladiator one does, call me crazy. I'm with you when it comes to dropping everything and running to your ideal job, I'd send Chance into the shredder if it meant he could be reborn as a Dark knight 8-).

I am so glad I'm not the only one who gets the whole feeling of triumph when clearing a section of the crafting log. I'm not a full time crafter main or anything, but the sound of the hammering and other noises around the forge makes me feel like I have stepped into my character's shoes and am currently living his life. To be honest this game is the closest I have felt to virtual reality, and because of that I have a much easier time roleplaying my character. Now if only I could control what my character did during main scenario cut scenes .

I have realized after reading many posts on the beta forums, and a few posts here that many people don't have the class/job they really want to be available to them yet. My question to you all is what class/job are you waiting to drop everything and reroll to? Mine is Dark Knight for my Disciple of War class, and Blue Mage for my Disciple of Magic. I just hope they add Dark knight onto Marauder if they do decide to implement it.

Playing Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 3, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, and Dead or Alive 5 all online. Aaaaand playing Resident evil: Revelations [PS3] with random Asian badasses on raid mode. Anyone wanna join me ?

Anyone else getting this strange sense of accomplishment when crafting? I don't know why, but I am so liking the way they set up crafting in this game, must be the fact that I totally can see my character ICly being hard at work as an Armorer. Just wanted to know if you all had a similar experience.

You are my hero from now on, never change 8-). Now I am going to do the same thing next time I walk into subway which might be tomorrow unless I decide I want Chinese or something. :dazed: Decisions, decisions.

Well, I have a weakness for male highlanders, so I'll certainly try to fit Chance into my next round of doodles. Haha. It's all a part of the plan, Ryanti. The plaaaaaaaan. *twiddles fingers* Don't give me a heart attack, I already am fanboying over how well you did Felix :surprise:!

Thought I'd throw mine into the mix incase anyone felt like drawing my greedy lil' gil hound. He looks exactly as he does in game with maybe a few more cuts along his upper body, glancing blows from a lance maybe. Name: Chance Vinders Race: Highlander Hyur Age: 27 Height: 6'5" Weight: 240 lbs Profession: Freelancer Demeanor: Chance's default expression is a laid back smile, though he can often be seen trying to fiercely argue down prices on certain items in the shop, one of the few things that can break his sense of tranquility. Personality: Chance is relaxed until gil gets involved in which case his mind becomes either as narrow as an arrow (Trying to obtain), as stubborn as a bull (penny pinching), or as furious as a volcano's top (Losing gil), either way gil is the key factor that shifts his mood. He is what most people call a 'gentle giant' at heart however, and treats others with the same respect he expects to receive in return. Clothes: It all depends on the job or activity, as Chance is a busybody, you are likely to see him change looks on the regular. It isn't uncommon to see him in the hyur racial gear, or in some form of a long-coat with lots of internal pockets. References:

If we number crunched and changed my level of appreciation and amazement to damage, I'm pretty sure it would one shot Emerald weapon . If you want more drawing material I would say you can draw Chance, but I don't have much for him other than some random screenshots . Anyway keep breaking the damage limit with your outstanding art skill, you have my gratitude for posting these great pieces of work !

I dare you to actually go in and casually ask for 20 cookies, white chocolate ones. If you do please tell me their response

I hope they say no. Then you can complain they are failing at customer service and refusing to serve you! Then again it would be even funnier if they are out of cookies today. You hit the nail right on the metaphorical head! But yes, Subway cookies are amazingly good. Their White Nut Macadamia Cookies are to die for... over and over again. We have just become friends.

Now I have a question...You all know how good Subway's cookies are (Obviously subject to opinion). How would the sandwich maker react if you just came in and requested 20 cookies? Before that how would they feel at the fact you only went in there for their cookies lmao? I am so tempted to drive up there right now and find out, whose with me?

Is it bad that just seeing how all of your lives work makes me feel more at ease lol? I seriously need to do stuff like this more often. I think you all are BA's for actually being able to schedule fun, work, and errands so easily into your lives. I'm whining like having to leave the house for 9ish hours is going to make me have no time to myself, but you all make it sound not so bad at all. I tried scheduling a job into my life, and like Kaln said filling in the empty moments with gaming cuz it's what I love to do. and I end up with roughly 7-8 free hours depending on how much I sleep, or if I get off work early. Also I need to keep in mind that I don't need to stay with a job for the rest of my life I plan on being a Computer Hardware Technician some day so I'll be studying and preparing my self for that career. Thank you all SO much for slapping me back into reality and making me realize what's truly important. This 23 year old apparently has a lot of growing to do! I just realized how bad the last part of the last post I made was. :dodgy: I guess you can say my inner child was taking over.

Thanks for taking the time to share some advice! Scheduling things has always been a weak card of mine, so working on that aspect is definitely something I should work on. I think my job will be some sort of morning shift, 7-3, 8-4 something like that, I'm worried about 10 hour shifts though.

First off I'm strange for wanting to know, but I'm curious as to all of your work hours, and how you manage to make time for the huge time sink we know as an MMORPG. I'm expecting to land a new job sometime soon, but want to enjoy my experience playing the game as much as possible. For better or worse I'm a gamer at heart, and I only work to sustain myself and those I care for. I believe that will change when I attain the knowledge I seek for the career I want. ANYWAY I just want to hear from those who juggle the masks of responsibility and fun on the daily basis. Opinions, advice, anything. The problem I think I'm having is I am having a hard time accepting that chunks of my life will be consumed by work.
