Think the main reason I hated 11 was I had to pug everything, which isnt the best experience <_<
Dunno what server ill be on tho
You may have to start grouping up again in 14 2.0, though, for guildhests, dungeons, and the like.

That said, I'll most likely be grabbing this the weekend after launch. I never did get to try fishing out during Phase 4, which still irks me since it was one of the timesinks I desperately wanted to try out in Phase 3.
There's an auto-queue LFG system. And it's yet to fail to pair me up with people in a timely fashion.

Use the Duty Finder as a healer. Instant group.

I'm not even exaggerating when I say my average wait time is like 3 seconds.

EDIT: Reportedly, the class imbalance during beta was so high that Yoshida outright pleaded for more people to play as tanks.

I've got a friend who's mainspeccing Glad and always grouping with me, so groups have not been a problem at all.

So I opted to save myself 30 big ones and skip out on Early Access. Man, I know I can wait three more days, but I also know I'll be hearing nothing but my friends talking about it until then. #oof#

greenmangaming has it for -25% off until Saturday. Probably the only time it's going to be on sale for a handful of months.

Alright, dudes?
I preordered it today and apparently I get an early access code because of it? I havn't recieved it though, apparently if you download through Amazon or Game you get the code instantly, but people who download directly from Square aren't getting codes sent through.

Yeah the setup is going to be sweet for tanks and healers (tanks more). My very small free company is only going to be less than 10 players and I am a tank so I see my game time being used to do a lot of dungeons.

As for pre-orders and early access, SE really screwed the pooch on this one. I deal with EBGames in Canada (GameStop) and they ran out of codes. So they called me this morning since they had new codes. By the time I got down to the store, they had run out of codes again. Thankfully they got more late today, and I convinced the staffer to give my code over the phone since he had seen me there pissed off earlier. Having the codes bottlenecked on their side is frustrating.

I'm a 1.0 account holder, so I don't need to buy ARR. Anyone who held Legacy status for 1.0 (which I missed by like two weeks) was granted Early Access, but non-legacy 1.0 players have to wait it out.

Still waiting.

That sinking feeling in your chest when you learn that your server is now the Goonsquad server...

So far, confirmed community servers seem to be:

Goonsquad (Somethingawful)- Excalibur
reddit - Gilgamesh
/v/ - Ultros

So are we all willing to join a server and get a Link Shell going together? Would be really fun if I had someone to play with.

I was going to ask a similar question.

I've got a character from Open Beta™ on Diabolos, since that's where a good friend of mine is sitting, but I wouldn't mind making an alt on another server. I'd like to aim for a server that's convenient for everyone, but that's just me.

I made a character called Paetr Hadewic on Phoenix since the SA server Excalibur is so full it's probably impossible to make a character there.

I hope we can get a decent linkshell and community in here, contact me in-game if you like.

So far we have about 4 or 5 people on Phoenix, we're hoping to get an LS going.
