Holy 2.6G Benchmark...

edit1: some dat mining stuff: http://www.daevaofwar.net/index.php?/forum/63-dat-mining/ mmm... chocobo (and apparently you can ride unicorn)

edit2: messing around with character creation coming from benchmark (720/1080p is not yet processed ATM, should be ready in 30min to an hour):

The mounts are cool. I wonder if they'll be dead weight in dungeons or even summonable at all.

The track record is that they are not summonable. Curious how Chocobo battle would work out.

I played up to level 28 and i got a chocobo, it's summonable, not in dungeons though

you get some kind of whistle and takes 1 second to cast

My benchmark score is quite a bit higher than before. Nice to see, but I don't actually know if that means anything D: if they simply adjusted/inflated the same ratings because people were running the game better than they assumed? idk

I preordered it to get into early access, hope I didn't mess anything by maybe registering my 'benefits package' code too early.

There will be another beta client for phase 4. Delete your current beta client (If you have access to the beta forums here the link http://forum.square-enix.com/ARR-Test/threads/77221-Beta-Test-Phase-3-Schedule-(07-08-2013)?p=934713&viewfull=1#post934713 )

They will probably email you when you'll be able to download the new beta client. More info will most likely come out in the Live Letter stream today.

And unless there's an exploit that requires a wipe, P4 characters will carry over into early release/live right?

Is P4 an open beta? Can I play it without having been in any previous beta phases?

Edit; And when I go to make an account on na.finalfantasyxiv.com I get a 404 error.
