So, I guess this is when our character option end dates will be updated from March 31. I'm super interested to see what the next "random expiration date" will be. It might actually mean something. ^^

I think it will be an accurate prediction of the date three days after the next Square Enix Account Management System Maintenance. :)

Actually, I thought that maintenance is just SE preparing the system for the launch of the new FFXI expansion pack 'Seekers of Adoulin', which will be released that same day.

Although updating our FFXIV account end dates to another arbitrary date in the future does ring true too. :)

So, I guess now it has something to do with readying the system for the Software Token, which has a bit more to do with XI right now than ARR, I guess. Still, I am hoping for a random character end-date change to give us a little bit of hope and something to speculate and chat about :p

[NA] Release Date Confirmed for the Square Enix Software Token

The previously announced Square Enix Software Token app for smartphones running on iOS and Android operating systems has been set to be released on March 28, 2013 (PDT).

We encourage you to use this app to log in with a One-Time Password, as this will vastly improve the security of your Square Enix account.

Please note that the app can be downloaded after midnight on March 28, 2013 (PDT) for both iOS and Android versions, but will become usable after 12:00 (PDT) on the same day.

and speaking of new expansion on XI, right now PlayOnline updates taking severe problems with alot of ppl having problem related with this new expansion, one of them are unable to update, including me (even tho I haven't purchase expansion yet). Some angry rant already going on @ POL forum. lol

It's to allow the system to work with the authenticator app.

Hello,

ギリギリのところでご心配おかけして申し訳ないです。
現在契約終了日が2013/3/31になっている方々に関しては、
暫定的に契約終了日が2013/4/30に変更されます。
Sorry for making you all worry till the last minute.
For those of you with current contract end date showing 03/31/2013 will be changed to 04/30/2013 temporarily.

ですので、4/1～も引き続きThe Lodestone等をご利用いただけます。
ご安心ください。
Therefore, please be rest assured that post 4/1 you would still be able to utilize features such as The Lodestone.

またこれは暫定的な処理で、4/30に何かあるとか、何かを示しているのだ！とか
そういうことではありませんので、その点も誤解なきようお願いできればと思います。
Also this was placed as a temporary measure, so don't go into speculating something is going to happen on 4/30! It's nothing like that so, please don't misunderstand. Thanks.

Oh well!

ARR confirmed for 30th April? Nice!
