Gegenji Posted February 24, 2015 Share #26 Posted February 24, 2015 Very happy to see Carbontwines become available with the weekly quest. I noticed that too, now you can choose which one you'd like for the week. I was going to start purchasing/upgrading the accessories for my off-classes, but this little change should hold that off for another month of so. Gogon has almost all un-upgraded Poetics gear on his left side save for gloves and skirt... Link to comment
Zyrusticae Posted February 24, 2015 Share #27 Posted February 24, 2015 This thing they're doing with the encrypted tomestones really irritates me. What is even the point of gating i120+ weapons behind relic quests and Coil for so damn long? Final Coil itself has already reached its end-of-life phase. Not that I actually need the extra damage, but it feels wrong, like they're just stringing us along. Throw me a bone here, already! Link to comment
Warren Castille Posted February 24, 2015 Share #28 Posted February 24, 2015 Tomestones are still Coil3 only, right? Maybe SE just couldn't come up with a good place to stick them. Which is weird, you figure they could have just made the weekly quest offer coat/twine/tome options. That's probably coming in 2.51b. I get to be smug with my relic, though. So many people just said "I'll wait for a tomestone weapon." Yes, you certainly will! Link to comment
Kage Posted February 24, 2015 Share #29 Posted February 24, 2015 Tomestone is still FCOB Turn 2 / Turn 11 only. Oh well I've got it already :> But it's only i130 :> it's interesting that they gated the weapon but maybe it's cause the zodiac was made i135 in 2.51? We'll see what happens in 2.55 then.

To be fair, for me it was "I'm not going through all that again on a second character" more than anything else. :blush: Link to comment

I'm just glad that the grind has paid off dividends. Link to comment
Blue Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share #32 Posted February 24, 2015 Man this is driving me so mad... patch has been up for like, what? six hours now? And I still can't get it downloaded. It downloads like 9 Kbs of it before the download ratio drops to 0Mb/s and the client shutdowns. Link to comment
Gegenji Posted February 24, 2015 Share #33 Posted February 24, 2015 Man this is driving me so mad... patch has been up for like, what? six hours now? And I still can't get it downloaded. It downloads like 9 Kbs of it before the download ratio drops to 0Mb/s and the client shutdowns. I... cheated and loaded up the game before going to work. If it hasn't downloaded after that eight hour period, though, I'm gonna be miffed. Link to comment
Aldotsk Posted February 24, 2015 Share #34 Posted February 24, 2015 I am on my third weapon to finish novus and then nexus. My others are at close to reaching nexus. By this time I'll probably work on my 4th and my last before Heavensward. Though I am really glad the carbontwine to be up as weekly. Because chances are that I won't be working on 5th zodiac.

T-T Great, now I'm gonna be worried until I get home. Along with figuring out how I'm going to work the Saucer over two characters. I want to get all the things for Gogon, of course, since he's my "completionist" character... but I don't want to completely ignore Chachan for the week or something. He still needs to get his poetics and stuff ("stuff" including outfits from the GS). Link to comment
Kage Posted February 24, 2015 Share #37 Posted February 24, 2015 Most should be fine it may be routing issues. My download of the patch finished while I was getting ready for work. Link to comment
Aldotsk Posted February 24, 2015 Share #38 Posted February 24, 2015 I think the downloading sever is having hiccups, because some of my friends can't patch either Link to comment
Ha'uruh Nunh Posted February 24, 2015 Share #39 Posted February 24, 2015 The good news: I patched before work and was running to Fallgourd before... The bad news: ... Lost power due to fallen power lines in the neighborhood. Shit best be fixed now. Link to comment

Dat Oni Posted February 24, 2015 Share #42 Posted February 24, 2015 The good news: MANDERVILLE GOLD SAUCER- The bad news: -IS ALWAYS CONGESTED AND YOU CANNOT VISIT IT. I understand, SE, that there is such a thing as server congestion. I understand that problems come up. What I fail to understand, SE, is how you can go patch after patch and never once anticipate that the worst is going to happen. THE WORST CASE SCENARIO is what happens every single time, but instead of preparing for the worst, you prepare for the best. You and every other company that owns an MMO does this. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Get with it, already. Link to comment
Kage Posted February 24, 2015 Share #43 Posted February 24, 2015 To be honest, this patch gave me the (teeny tiny) opportunity for the Oasis Doublet which I like and the Carbontwine which I love. Gold Saucer? it never was my thing in FF7. I couldn't care less about Triple Triad. The only reason I care is... well. I'd like a fat chocobo minion. The Doublet. The Fenrir mount. :V Link to comment

Devil's advocate is my favorite game. Praytell, did you have your hopes up things would be different this time? You know the definition of insanity, right...? Link to comment

If I say yes, that would mean I've been hoping they'll change this time, which would make me insane. If I say no, you could say I'm bluffing for the sake of not being called insane, which would make me a liar, and possibly insane.

Aldotsk Posted February 24, 2015 Share #46 Posted February 24, 2015 so I was right about me not entering Gold Saucer the first day. Sounds like people trying to destroy WalMart here. Also I gave that poker face look when I found out you had to pay for Aesthetician pony tail hairstyle, and 1,000,000 for Fenrir mount. *looks at Aaron quitting RP to get Fenrir mount by staying in Gold Saucer forever* Link to comment

It looks like it, too. I tried to take a screenshot, but trying to do so (mainly just getting close to and LOADING THE PEOPLE) slowed my game so much I thought my PC was going to burst into flames.

Aldotsk Posted February 24, 2015 Share #48 Posted February 24, 2015 There has been lot of people who got kicked out of Gold Saucer and has been stuck in 3102 error for 4-6 hours straight. Can anyone confirm this on RPC end? Because 4ch and reddit and some bug report on the forum were talking about it. Link to comment
ChewableMorphine Posted February 24, 2015 Share #49 Posted February 24, 2015 Yeah-no-yeah don't even try to get into the Saucer just yet. It's actually impossible. Like. It's congested to the point Mor Dhona loads faster. Link to comment
Blue Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share #50 Posted February 25, 2015 Just want to let you guys know that I DC'd in Gold Saucer (due to power outage), and I was able to return online immediately without getting bounced. Though maybe, it's just the late hour. Link to comment
