Well looki here
''Players who own the FFXIV version 1.0 Collector’s Edition will receive the FFXIV: ARR Collector’s Edition in-game bonus items (Helm of Light, Baby Behemoth Minion, Behemoth Barding, and Coeurl Mount) for free''

I won't use any of these personally except maybe the Barding ... but I am sure many will be happy to get them ^_^

Collector's Edition Digital Upgrade Service
The Collector's Edition digital upgrade offers customers the ability to upgrade their standard FFXIV account to Collector's Edition status via the “FFXIV Service Center” website that is scheduled to be opened at the launch of official service, which then grants the in-game bonus items included with the Collector's Edition. Customers in possession of the Collector's Edition for either version 1.0 or A Realm Reborn will receive these Collector's Edition items without needing to purchase the upgrade.
* Characters that have already been created will be able to receive the items.

They took it down? Perhaps they did not mean to release it yet as it is not the 23rd everywhere.

We'll have to wait, it seems (revisits the thought of distracting a coeurl with a ball of yarn...maybe have Denmo or Virgil riding it and have them crash into a chocobo rider who immediately demands their insurance info.

Oh yeah and should I make it into a comic again, this is my preferred outfit :3

Dude, he IS the youngling and his name is Khrimm.

Soon we will be back to the future. And it will be dotted with coeurl mounts, ChocoBehemoth hybrids, JP salarymen, and angry threads cursing the day they didn't get in on the Legacy campaign.

I see it was taken down. I guess that confirms it wasn't supposed to be seen yet. I'll look forward to the actual page(with an actual release date). Haha.

Well Rogue, I think we know how exited you are to have this Courel Mount. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...Mount+rukkirii

I wonder, do we get to name are mounts other than are chocobo? Was your Goobue named? I don't remember.

2 more items for pre order are interesting.
The Mog Cap from 11 and a Cait Sith plushie (the one we kinda knew about when Yoshi showed it on live letter then covered it up with his hand hahaha)

I wonder how much the Hard copy CE version will be... that Soundtrack and Art book look tempting.

I'll be buying a copy for my aunt to play..im not giving her the extra stuff :D /cruel

Whether I get the CE or not will depend on the price.

Oh and you can apparently use multiple characters per account at the same time. Within restrictions. http://support.jp.square-enix.com/fa...5&id=5382&la=1

Both the coeurl and i would probably pounce on that ball of yarn. After that, the last kitty standing may keep it... (^_^; )

Hmm. Depending on the price I might pre-order one of the versions to get the bonus shinnies. Plus I can save a little of my bandwidth.

And whoa! More than one page of threads in latest topics XD it's been a while

I wish I could draw cool flow charts! Because I would make one for the dual boxing changes.

Turns out that FFXIV will have it's own service center. For PCs you can dual box on one SE account and one Service account, you just need a code for each character. Two play two characters simultaneously on PS3 and PC you need 2 SE accounts and 2 Service Accounts. and to play two characters at the same time on PS3 you need 2 SE accounts, 2 Service Accounts and 2 consoles!

Phew!

And you can only register 1 PS3 code per service account... o.o

Actually it seems to be 1 PS3 product code per SE account, though you can purchase separate registration codes after launch. ... @.@ It is quite complicated.

The only way for you to create multiple service accounts with the PlayStation 3 version is to purchase additional registration codes through the “FFXIV Service Center” website which will be available after launch. Please note that you will need an active FINAL FANTASY XIV service account in order to access this website.

At least they added two more links to their multi-box FAQ to clarify a little more.

Yes I meant to say per SE account!

SE account, service account! FFXIV Service Center!

Getting woozy... dizzy... @.@

Went into EB today to ask if they had an exclusive pre order item for 2.0.
They did not know O.o;;;

Stores can be like that, It's like the company says stuff before informing the stores, who don't watch gaming sites. Which is what I bet happens.

They are aware that I am stalking them for the information. *grins*

They have a EB exclusive tag on the pre orders but nothing different then what we already know...
Prices in Australia -_- $98 for PC and $118 for PS3

Another interesting item:
''Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Prepaid Time Card'' - Grants a 60-day subscription to Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn $38

I'm considering buying another copy to give to my friend (so I can also have the pre-order items :D) - Does this make me an idiot? lol

Holy shit, they're asking you to pay $38 for 2 months? That's a huge rip-off considering for Legacy it's $20 for 60 days, non-legacy it's $24~$30 ($12~$15/ Mo.) - I guess EB Games has to make a profit somehow?

Also - my god, AU Prices are a little higher in general aren't they?

ALSO! Unrelated topic - Who's considering buying an nVidia SHIELD?! I really want one so I can play FFXIV around the house, not just on my PC, plus it'd just be awesome to have. Now that they're release the GTX 780, I'm suddenly finding myself stuck trying to decide which GPU I want to replace my 2 550 Ti's with... (1~2) Titan, (1~2) 780, 2 680's @_@

I wonder if there will eventually be a way to play FFXIV on Jellybean OS (i.e. the SHIELD) so I can play XIV mobile/between class on the college Wi-fi. For the love of the twelve, it has a mic port so you can run Ventrilo/Mumble/Teamspeak while you play...whatever O_O!

As much as I'd love to have one now now now, I'm going to wait a while for the price to possibly go down, but more importantly, let nvidia release a newer, better version that's less likely to have issues =P

German Rep Sasunaich made a FAQ Thread. In it, it says at one point:

Quote:

Legacy players need to use the digital Upgrade-Service, if they want to assign the bonuses of the ARR-CE to their 1.0 account.
Legacy players, who bought the 1.0-CE, do not need to do anything, but it is helpful to use the code of the Onion Helmet.

Well, I want to buy the physical CE which includes the digital items, but I can't use those codes because I got Legacy status, which means I got to pay twice...? Dunno what to think about that D:
05-25-2013, 03:26 AM
HiirNoivl

Yikes, I wanted the CE physical items but I thought I would be able to apply the CE item codes to my current legacy one...

Oops. ;; Ah well.

I pre-ordered the PS3 CE. So if I understand everything, because I have/had the 1.0 CE, I will by default get the ARR CE for free. This includes the digital items. I won't get the physical items unless I buy a copy of the CE again. I think I'm good....

IDEA

I has an idea for Nique. Yoshi is on a stage. He's telling everyone about the pre-order bonus and release date. We all go nuts with happiness (of course). Some of us in the audience are wearing the digital items. Some are wearing a moogle cap, others are wearing the Warrior of Light Helm. Some of us have our Cait Sith minions, and others are riding their behemoth chocobos.
