It probably won't be as bad as B&S was at launch where your work was invalidated week to week

So how bad was the lag for Australian players during the beta?

I didn't get very far but it felt..fine I guess? It sucks rear end there's nothing for SEA/OCE though.

Is this game good enough to warrant paying £13 to play a couple of days early? Does the *stuff* that the founders pack give actually provide anything nice?

The stuff in the packs is pretty bad unless you really want one of the costumes, imho, not worth it to sit in queue early

Lynx Winters posted:

From what I've figured out, there's two kinds of cards: the kind you can equip and the kind that will eventually give you passive bonuses. On the card screen, there's the Equip tab and the Books tab. As far as I can tell, every card goes into the Books tab and when you complete a set of cards you get a permanent passive bonus that can be improved by levelling up cards. Some cards are can be equipped, and those are the ones you can hot swap out. It seems like cards aren't really a thing to worry about until you're already running out of other things to optimize.

Huh..okay. Weird that they give you two cards you can't equip and then tell you to go equip cards to get power but, well, this game has a lot of stuff like that I guess.

It turns out they literally can't add any more servers to EU for technical reasons (how many servers are there in KR? I guess it makes sense there's a limit considering how many things are region-wide) and instead they have to create an entire second EU region. Oof.

Wow, EUxit.

I saw the loot auction in the one chaos rift I've ran so far.
It's kind of a cool concept: instead of just disappearing or whatever, the money spent by the winner of the auction is split between everyone who helped kill the boss.
So even if you completely ignore it you'll get a pile of free gold in your mailbox soon enough.

B&S did similar things with its dungeon loot and yeah it wasn't a bad idea.

I just hit 50 on my first class. This guide someone posted earlier looks good, but I'm unsure about something. I hit level 50 in Athetine, the techno place, but as far as I can tell chaos dungeons and stuff get unlocked in Vern? Am I better off swapping over to Vern to unlock that, or do I have to both ark quests to unlock this stuff?

It's quest progression bound so keep doing techland, Vern is next

There's a bug on a bunch of servers were the event shows up on the odd hours instead of the even ones that all the text (and the in-game alarm system) claims.

No I have no idea how they managed to break it like that.

I'm 90% sure this is just people trying to look for the portal based on their own time and not the server's time.

In my case the event alarms also said it was on 'even hours' but it's on odd. It's a fun little event though even if I can't make use of almost any rewards (hat aside) because I'm only 500.

I wish Abyss Dungeon mechanics just gave you vuln or killed you if you hosed them up and not wiped. At least then it wouldn't feel so loving terrible to try and get these done when you try and tell people what to do and they just don't and then go "ummm quit???"

Man I’m not a game dev, but I am a dev, and the idea of trying to maintain three completely separate clients gives me hives. I’m sure there are good reasons not to try to unify them, but that is very much not a thing I would like to work on. It’s pretty impressive how not hosed everything is, all things considered.

Is there a website/resource that tracks in-game timers, trading ship locations, and other stuff like that? Similar to garlandbell for FFXIV

The ingame calendar would be nice for this, if it was in your local time at all and not four timezones on the other side of the world

It also breaks if your PC's timezone puts you a day ahead lmao

This may seem like a dumb question but how does one use an alt to help their main when it comes to honing?

Hyper Inferno posted:

Many sources of honing mats in game are not bound. So if you have one character in upper T2 about to break into T3 and an alt who just got into T2, you can funnel the unbound mats into the main. So for example, all the mats your alt gets in their chaos dungeon/guardian raid runs and the weekly pirate coin exchange can be funneled into the main to help push them into T3.

RPATDO_LAMD posted:

You get non-character-bound honing mats from daily chaos dungeons and guardian raids. Just shove 'em in your shared storage for your main to use.

Oh, right. Guess I was only mousing over stacks that were bound like a clown!

I think my only pad complaint is how annoying it is to hit "yes" when you move between chaos levels but there's always some clod who wants to ride out the timer anyway
