I certainly do, and that becomes a pretty big problem for FFXI in the end. If you can't find anyone worth PT'ing with, especially to take care of your objectives (a huge amount of people in the game are permanently stuck in the lower missions), then there's really nothing worth doing in the game.
That's why I'm in love with PSU's emphasis on quick playing. It doesn't take hours to form PTs, dungeons have checkpoints, missions barely equal 30 minutes, etc. I also love how there's no real penalty for dying (de-leveling....an evil game design) aside from exiting the dungeon and going back in. That said, I'm not sure how interested I'll stay in this game. I'm glad I didn't sign up for 6 months. It's fun, no doubt, but it also doesn't feel like an endless adventure like FFXI does.
How ya doing, buddy?

Yeah the personal machine does give you some backup in dungeons later. If i'm not mistaken the stats that go up are (from top to bottom) Attack, Range, and Technic. Could be wrong though.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
Anybody find out if the PC version supports widescreen resolutions?
I personally just want to buy the 360 version, but I can't play with the majority of people who have the game if I do! But I can't stand games boxed if I can get it widescreen! What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I hear the 360 servers are currently nearly deserted.
FELIPE NO |
Yeah, but I'd rather play on deserted servers in widescreen than have a box full of people.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Sup guys. Here's my info for the game
Character Name: Michael Blackthorne Race: Human Battle Type: Hunter Game Version: PS2 Version I was amazed that my entire character name fit. I won't be on much till next week though, I'm trying to finish up on Halloween event stuff in City of Heroes before it ends. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Once more people get the game up and running, we should organize a time/place to all get together and exchange cards. It'd make things a whole lot easier, since knowing someone's name really has no benefit other than shouting out "HEY!" if you happen to see them run by.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Well, that would be good, but like Miles was saying, if we designated a certain server/universe to commonly occupy at least for a little bit early on, we'd probably be running into each other often. As for which one, *shrug*, I dunno, 1 seemed to be the only one with a lot of people but that was early this morning.
As of current, I can't connect, are they still doing maintenance? This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. so they may learn the glorious craft of acting from the dear leader |
Got my copy today (Gamestop is on the ball I guess) and I'm just waiting on getting a new video card. Once I have that, I'll be good to go.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Anyway, woke up a bit early this morning, was able to get on right away no problem. Gotta go to work now, so I probably won't be able to get online again until tommorrow morning. Name: Daravon Type: Cast Class: Ranger Version: PS2 I was speaking idiomatically. |
Thanks to my early classes, I managed to get my online account registered and activated before heading to class today since all the kiddies were still asleep/already at school.
Name: Cinnamon Race: Newman Class: Force Other character Name: Taco Race: CAST Class: Ranger Version: PC What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Tiiiiny res
Well, a friend of mine was frequenting Universe 18 last night, but I didn't get to meet up with him. Currently, 1 is the most populated, and the rest feel rather barren. I'm sure that'll change once more people can actually log in and play. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I have to run on 640 x 480 res thanks to my video card. It can run on higher resolution, but not without massive slowdown, and instead of just automatically adjusting the frame skip so movement stays pretty constant, it just drops the framerate without any regard for frame skipping, leading to overall slowdown of the gameplay. :< I may pick a better one up today, though, so that may improve things a bit.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
On a related note, does anybody know offhand how much meseta it would cost to switch classes at the very start? Kyndig probably wants a Hunter Cast, not a Ranger. IIRC you start off with 0 meseta right? (I'm at work, so I can't check any of this). I also LOVE the body options with the casts, you can make some cool stuff. I think the body/clothes shops sell things you can't start with as well, looking forward to what I can do. Also looking forward to playing as a cast, since I always played human before.

Name: Para / Ayane
Race: Human(or maybe cast) / Newman (also another Cast character named ayane) Class: Probably Hunter / Hunter Force (Cast version unknown.. most likely fighter) Version: PC Good hunting people. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Character Name: Tenki
Race: Human Gender: Male Class: Hunter Game Version: PC Desired Class: Fortefighter Weapon of Choice: Spear I think I'm gonna hang out on Universe 3 for a bit since it's fairly high up the list so should be populated decently at all times but not full. Most amazing jew boots

Sup GFF faggots, who can't handle shit? |
I hope this game doesn't get repeptive. What's the monthly fee?
Most amazing jew boots |
I've mainly been chilling in 1 since it's the most populated, and I've been doing a fair bit of pickup groups. I'll likely settle down somewhere else though once the majority of my friends get the game running and once populations settle.
Taegueki, the fee is $9.99 for 30 days, or $49.99 for 180. As a random note... I really wish the PC version was a port of the 360 version, and not the PS2 ver... I would kill to have widescreen and higher res support. That, and a fullscreen that doesn't crash when you alt-tab. Grumble. But all in all, extremely entertaining so far Tried to take on De Ragan with 5 people, all around level 8-9. Wiped horribly. Massive deathticle, that dragon is. I'm glad though, if it was easy I would have been disappointed What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I've been playing on Universe 2 a bit. Formed up a few decent parties with people. Some of them had a hard time not dying though and screwed up our S-rank. We seriously need to set up a meeting date on a random Universe to exchange cards. It makes forming parties with freinds MUCH easier.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Well, I'm downloading it right now. As compensation for not buying it, I'll be buying the HL for 6 months. I've come from PSO and PSOv2 from DC, so jumping in this should be no problem. Anyone face a Dark Falz-like character yet?

Yeah Ive been playing on universe 2 as well...
man CASTs can really pwn ass fast at the beginning. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'll get this game eventually (stupid stores being sold out >:|), hopefully I'll be able to get in before everyone is all high leveled and stuff.
If I wanted to be a Force I would have to pick the Newman race, correct? I just like hanging around in the backlines and attacking from far away How ya doing, buddy? |
