2.0 Plans

646 weeks ago

Hey guys~

I finally got invited to Beta Phase 3 and currently in Ultros under the same name "Kumo Wcloudx" ^^

I'm using a new character, since there's no option for me to re-activate my old FFXIV character currently (Maybe on official launch or phase 4).

Anyway, the game looks great and can't wait to see you all again~:D

Good news, Obsy!

Unfortunately I already went to another world, though. :(

I switched things up for this beta round and my character name is 'Bread Crumb' on Ultros.

I look forward to seeing whether they get their shit in order for 1.0 data next weekend.

Hah, Kalce! I took a picture of her too for Obsy and soon as I saw her! She's waiting for you in… shit I don't remember what Aetheryte that is… it's Western La Noscea.

I'll throw a couple of pictures up here that I took.

Don't worry about having missed seeing anyone last weekend. None of us really got to the point of doing anything in groups anyway, and we don't yet know what the plan is for next weekend, if it involves 1.0 characters.

So 1st weekend of Beta Test has ended, and so far, I'm really impressed with current the state of the game.

I created a Male Miqote and currently a lvl 19 Pug in Ultros Server. Been doing the main storyline quest, and really pumped up. I can't believe they actually have FF1 Battle Theme playing as one of the BGM for the main storyline battle~

As for the upcoming Beta test, this is their plan for Phase 3:

––––––––––––––––––––––––

Test 1 - June 14, 2013 (Friday), 2:00 a.m. to June 16, 2013 (Sunday), 2:00 a.m. (PDT) / June 14, 2013 (Friday), 9:00 to June 16, 2013 (Sunday), 9:00 (GMT)
Large-scale checks of core PlayStation 3 functions
Operation of multiple data centers
Checks for stability in light of increased content
Checks for increased server load due to battle system revisions
In addition to the establishment of regional data centers and the above test objectives, the first phase 3 test will place emphasis on world stability and functionality on the PlayStation 3.

Critical issues reported by players will be addressed immediately, or by the start of the second phase 3 test at the latest.

Test 2 - Schedule TBA
Transfer of character data from Version 1.0
Once the PlayStation 3 version has been confirmed stable in the course of Test 1, we will move on to Test 2 which will include character data transfers and the addition of worlds from Version 1.0.

Test 3 - Schedule TBA
Test of the Duty Finder player matching system
If there are no major problems with the transfer of character data from Version 1.0, all subsequent tests will include the Duty Finder. Although limited in functionality, large scale stress tests of the matching system will be conducted.

Final Test - Schedule TBA
Once all key objectives for beta test phase 3 are complete, a final test of the game engine will be conducted to ensure server stability. During this test, worlds are scheduled to remain online for several days.

Final adjustments in preparation for release will be made during beta test phase 3, and your feedback will be invaluable as we conduct the tests outlined above.

Certain circumstances may necessitate the change of test objectives and scheduling. Should any schedule changes be necessary, an announcement will be made.

We thank you for your participation in the beta test, and hope you enjoy the experience!

–––––––––––––––––––––––-

It's sad that they're going to delete Phase 3 character data, starting to get attached to my Beta character~xD

I would say, it'll probably take another month before we enter Phase 4.

I'm REALLY hoping I luck out and get a PS3 key this week for the next test phase, just so I can try that version out. I'll be on and off a little bit over Phase 3 and 4, but there's a part of me that just wants to wait it out for launch to really get into the nitty gritty of stuff.

Oh, btw, I've heard rumors that there is a Mi'qote in RDM gear somewhere in the Limsa questline, or a questline IN Limsa, I'm not sure. Can anyone here verify that?? I've been trying to find a picture…

Limsa was so hilariously empty in Phase 3, since you could only be Marauder starting out there. What made me laugh was a FATE fighting a giant jellyfish outside of Limsa. I was alone when I started fighting. I started to run away cause I knew I wouldn't be able to take him. Then, in the distance, 4 more Marauders came running up. We just started all hacking on him with our axes. It was hilarious.

None that I've seen. I've done all the quests in Limsa up through level 15; I need to go back and see if any more have unlocked now that I'm 20.

They mentioned something about a banquet…It could very well be someone trolling, though. The amount of WANT surrounding RDM would make one assume a screenshot of a Mi'qote RDM would be easily found.

Wouldn't it be interesting, though, if RDM was the first Job that had two class requirements? I want RDM very very very badly….
