10-30-2012, 09:48 AMStarlordTechnically today is over to me so Tomorrow is in 24hrs if you want to count the extra 17 hours it's about 40ish hours but I don;t like the thought of seeing more hours, so I'll just say it's tomorrow ( today is practically over) :PQuote:

Since not everyone can play on the 11th I really hope we can trigger the end sooner since I assume it will be a CS. If it is a live event on the 11th at really horrible times for some people I will be extremely cross.

i bet nuttin happens hah, everything be red or something until 11th.

10-30-2012, 04:56 PMsharazisspecial
seriously why not save on 11th? no motivation at all to log on after last save for me. Whole reason i play mmos is because i want to progress lol. If i am not going get my progression saved I would rather play a more exciting and engaging game during my time then watch cutscenes .
Its most likely going to be a cutscenes though why else do we have the timer . Also perhaps a different bg playing. Maybe more cactuars. Also more npcs spamming the chat log lol. -

I'm just hoping to hear that one eerie "Answers" song people found in the files. From 1 till 11.
And perhaps a full scale war. -

I wonder *log in on the 11th November*, event starts, "An error has occured, FINAL FANTASY XIV has stopped working"
*cries* -
10-30-2012, 07:46 PMsharazisspecialOk so "fun" is logging in for 10 days for the chance of a cutscene is "fun"? or an event where there has been very little build up or info about what is going to happen. With everything you do during that time being erased soon.Quote:

I am someone who doesnt bother with achievements or seasonal events as well.
Now if progress was saved i would feel less like my time was being wasted. -
10-30-2012, 07:53 PMPunainenDo you have any confirmation of this or are you just assuming?Quote:

It's not exactly a bad assumption. I'd bet that at the very least, they will change the music of someplace to that crazy version of answers. They - are - taking the servers down, sneaking up a small patch to enable who knows what wouldn't be hard.

10-30-2012, 08:03 PMsharazisspecial
If there was pvp i would totally log in even if my progress wasnt saved.
If the event gave me info about what i could do then maybe. But going from what SE has actully done rather then naive speculation . I expect nothing but a different bgm, npc spamming chat, perhaps invisible mobs oneshotting people and some cutscenes. Yeah not what i consider fun .
SE could reward their faithful with an actual epic event though good luck lol. -
10-30-2012, 08:13 PMPreypacerOkay we get it. You don't like the idea of cut-scenes. You think anything that doesn't progress your character is a waste of time. You think a large-scale event, bringing in the end of the current game/world and making way for the next, where people can log in simply to hang out and have fun with in-game friends/ls-mates is pointless because you can't see any fun in it.Quote:

You can stop repeating yourself now. -
10-30-2012, 08:15 PMsharazisspecial
Well enjoy yourself i guess. All i see is afkers in uldah with noone talking in chat just in ls. Im eu so theres less people to talk to when i can play since its most just jp on during my time. Very few eu and na on my server. Atomos does go down during na time.

You know if they made meteors kill all those pricks who lag uldah by afking there it would be enjoyable for me in a sadistic way.
Its partly SE's fault im not excited for this event cos they didnt hype it up! so my cynic whining is a way to show SE that they didnt really advertise it very well or build it up good. Though they will probally just ignore this thread.
Some people are just negative nancys deal with it bro.
Also besides crying on the forums what else am i going to do while power leveling crafting...
Damn you elemental destablization on first careful! -

Grand Finale for the Current Version of FINAL FANTASY XIV
The grand finale is right around the corner, as the Seventh Umbral Era descends on Eorzea. A final save maintenance for current version character data is scheduled for November 1, 2012, followed by all Worlds coming down on November 11, 2012 at 0:00am (PST) / 8:00am (GMT). Then at 2:00am (PST) / 10:00am (GMT), also on November 11, we’re planning to run a live Letter from the Producer.
That's just how I take it, And also for 10 days, were just going to do nothing ( since everything you do won't count) so there would have to be a reason for you to log on after the 1st right? or else no one would log on really till the 11th? That doesn't sound logical to me.
It could wide up being nothing till the 11th, I just don't see logic in it. -

It could also be flavor text to make it sound much more exciting than it really is since they know people will (have) stopped playing after the final save.
-

I figured the 10 days was just a grace period in case people are busy working/traveling/etc and can't immediately take part in whatever the finale is, be it any live event or a CS.
