Windows 10 [Did you upgrade?]

decided to upgrade. it's a lot nicer than 8.1 now that the apps aren't segmented off into that metro crap.

Hell no I didn't upgrade, pointless. Sticking with windows 7 till it dies

Looking forward to people like you crying when you finally decide to upgrade, but notice that the 1-year free-upgrade offer is gone. ;)

Updated. No issues at all. Game runs better than on win8.1 on dx11. System is running great.

Right now I'm still getting the "we'll let you know when it's available!" message.

They wont care tbh as long as your activated. It is free to activated windows 7, 8, and 8.1 customers as long as they are activated. Had similar situation at my wife's school with her pc. Windows 8 to be exact. Upgraded and activated like a champ.

Just did it last night. Games run significantly better, launcher was broken for about 2 seconds, had to re-install windows media player (mostly cause I had Windows 7 Ultimate N). You can essentially turn it into Windows 7 with better performance, so why not? Also, for those who missed out on Windows 8, the cold boot of an SSD is insanely fast.

My DX11 glitch from XIV is ALMOST gone, the player and NPC names would constantly get jumbled, it still happens but far less frequently.

Yes!!! This got sooooo bad for me that I literally turned off all names.

1. Yes

2. Yes

3. Yes

4. Smoother framerate and my GPU fans don't spin up as much.

5. The Win + G bar for taking quick screenshots and video captures is cool. I wasn't expecting that.

6. No.

We simply no longer have control over our PC.

The tin-foil hat wearing is strong with this one.

I didn't even have to reinstall it despite doing a clean install. I had the game on a separate harddrive and just clicked my standard shortcut.

Started with a clean install.

1. Did you upgrade after the release of Windows 10? (Jul 29th)
Upgraded Today.

2. Did the game start with zero issues?
No. Game forced me to run it as Administrator to start. =/

3. Running DX11 version of the game just fine?

4. Noticeable changes? (Game wise)
All the text looks grainy and so does the rest of the game and I don't know how to fix it ; ;

5. Personal experience you would like to share about it? (Windows 10 / FFXIV with W10)
GAH WHY

6. Did you follow up with a clean install after the upgrade?
Not yet.

But really, does anyone else seem to be having the same issue? First of all, my HUD was all messed up due to sizing issues, managed to get that under control. Text looks too big and grainy for some reason, and the graphics look dull and grainy as well. I don't know what happened, as everything looked beautiful before with DX11. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix any of these issues? Was hoping to find more people with the same problems.
