Now receiving

LoL That's pretty pathetic, even their maintenance icon isn't working.

Managed to get my key, now I'm wading through to register it. Also keep in mind but I'm fairly sure logging in will be impossible as well, as the login page for logins in the launcher appears to be down too... wow..

Enjoy the slow downloads for anyone that got in. :laugh:

Most of us, well.. The ones that thought ahead, downloaded the client ahead of time. SE provided it a few days ahead, also other hosting sites gave people the installer like a month ago.

All we had to do was keep it up to day weekly with the patches.

Got it installed... but it's not that great of an MMO... like it's a huge step backwards from Final Fantasy XI.. :(

I agree, sofar not liking it to much and I loved XI. I'll keep trying maybe it will get better before release.

Okay guys I have a very strange Problem... I got my key and linked it to my account. Then I went to: https://dev-na.ffxiv.com/ to download the client, login, and then I'm back at the screen that tells me to login :angry:

https://dev-na.ffxiv.../ubbthreads.php

Try that.

Edit: Whomever at Sony thought Peer To Peer networking for downloading the game during a Beta should be SHOT.

I don't get a connection at all, and if I do, its like 14.5 kb/s. :wacko:

Thanks but it simply doesn't work, I login and then get:

Login process is running.

If you change the screen, please press the NEXT button.

After that:

The FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Test Site can only be accessed by those who have been granted Beta Test accounts.

Beta testers can log in from the link below using their Square Enix Account.

Are there any other download locations for the PAL client?

It's just even if I let at:

The FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Test Site can only be accessed by those who have been granted Beta Test accounts.

FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Test Site Login

There's no sign of browser reaction at all :cry:

Could you maybe PM me the download link that is offered there?

LOL Nevermind I fixed it, apparently Square Enix is a bit dumb...

The Email said to go to: https://dev-na.ffxiv.com/

which doesn't work at all so I now went to:

https://dev-eu.ffxiv.com/

and it worked :rofl:

EDIT 2: Seriously that beta site is messed up... I think it throws me into random accounts as each time I click on a link there a new name shows up at the top :laugh:

You're welcome Zethian!

I also have a bad time Minifig.... and that dammed Beta downloader takes 40% of my CPU....

And most of the time I load with whooping 0.1kb/s or 0.0kb/s THIS IS AWESOME.... I just hope somebody uploads the whole client elsewhere....

Is the beta closed already!? I've been trying repeatedly since it came online at 2/3am this morning and now I get:

Applications for the FINAL FANTASY XIV Open Beta Test have been temporarily suspended. Please wait until we are ready to accept new applications and then try again.

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
