Yeh...and who knows when they will increase server capacity. On a side note, Anyone in Grid or Lominsa see a shield for sale for less then 40k?

CE experience is massively improved on the beta, very little menu lag, no battle lag, no mouse lag which were pretty much the three main gripes people had with the game. They say server capacity will increase next week with the regular edition going on sale.

edit: Gonna try and set up a livestream tomorrow night, I'm still really low lv and inexperienced with this game, but I will have my FFXI crew with me and this should be fun, Ill try and keep you all posted.

You can build those square maple shields for like 5k in mats as a woodworker. You should be able to find them soon on retainers as crafters level up.

Nice to know Aurra. I found a shield, forget name, but its just for DoW recommended level of 11. It cost 40k in Ul'Dah. Its also a wooden shield so guess I can wait, but I'm impatient lol. Sadly, SE lessened the amount of gil obtained by doing the main quest.

Question for the CE people, what do you actually do in game? Guildleves, farm, craft?
Are there some quests? Any of them fun to do?

Is the story more developped do you learn more about Eoarza while leveling up?
What interested me in this game is how the ff11 people described ff11 as a game with a great story, since i'm looking for a MMO who really use the RPG aspect i have hope for ff14.
Does it deliver?

Just like in FFXI there is a "main quest" of sorts that you do while leveling that is full of cutscenes and storyline that develop the world. Each of the three city-states has it's own questline that will most likely converge into one once people reach the capital city of Ishgard (FF11 did the same thing with Jeuno).

I'm making a storyboard of sorts with the cutscenes here: http://www.aurra.info/ff14-storyboard-1/

I haven't uploaded many yet as I had to go to work and the servers went down early for maintenance today but it gets more and more interesting the further you go.

Downloaded the game and installed, had a lot of trouble getting the patches and listened to a crapload of people telling me the game is bad. Went back to Minecraft.

How did the game change from the OB? I played it then but it didn't exactly seem like it was worth buying.

Is the UI lag fixed (not just the mouse)?
Are guildleves still on a long timer?
Are there any more quests?

The mouse lag is gone. Guildleves are now on a 36 hour timer if I.m correct, but thats okay since yu can help others do their quests even if you do not have it. There are more quests. The game will only get better, imo.
