Castrum Novum

Anyone got any decent shots of this place? I was exploring around and managed to catch a little light show. Am wondering if there is any meaning behind it.

The Garlands having a Concert? :O

Garleans are throwing a raver that will literally DESTROY Eorzea.

See that big red asteroid coming down on top of us?

That's the light show they hired.

I wonder if they hired Deadmau5 for the music O:

lol I was gonna say they having a Kiss concert and it's closed to public

I read a thread somewhere here on the official forums yesterday where someone had logged out in Mor Dhona pre-patch and when they logged in, they were inside the fort. They provided ample screenshots, but I can't remember where I saw it.

Unsurprisingly, there was little to see.

Probably because it's not finished. It looks really cool from the outside.

1.23= Partah at the Garlands!

Eorzea inhabitants aren't very smart... we should really be breaking down that wall before they have time to expand their fort.

Dalamund is a giant disco ball nice.

Few pictures I took tonight. Standing on the north side of Castrum Novum. If you watch Dalamund you can see some kind of energy flowing around the surface and making pattens, almost looks like a soccer ball pattern.

I'm pretty sure they're having a "support our troops" kind of concert going on over there. I mean, these poor imperial soldiers spend months at a time living in a fort in the wilds of a foreign continent. They dream of being back home in their evil lands with their wives and family. So it's only fair that they get to see free performances from Garlemald's hottest pop artists as a morale booster.

pshh everyone knows there in there jamming to daft punk.

I am surprised there is no videos of someone "glitching" over the walls to explore XD

I didn't need to glitch over the walls. I logged out within them before the place was added:

Yep, like how Aurum was..once everything was properly implemented it actually became an interesting place.

What I don't like about the place is it now blocks (because the gates won't open) a key path between the north and south parts of the region- right now if you want to get from the othr to the south you have to take the east side which is substantially longer.

So, wonder how they're going to go about giving us the magitek armor. Talk to an npc, or go in and steal one from their base. I vote the latter!
