Final 1.0 event info & time

So all we really know at this point is that there will be SOME sort of event at November 11, 2012 (Sunday) 0:00 a.m. (PST).

Will there be stuff going on all week during the next several days, or just one big event on Sunday?

Also, just to clarify for us EST folk, yeah... servers shut down at 3:00 a.m. Good luck enjoying the end if you have to get up for work in the morning ;_;

i was thinking about this earlier....what ever they are planning will need to be implemented in a patch so whatever is coming i am assuming will be implemented when the server goes down for final save maintenance...i cant see them taking the game down for a few hours on the 11th to implement a final patch?

Don't get your hopes up too much. I thought the only thing that's actually "confirmed" is that trailer when the clock hits 0.

Anything more than this would be awesome, but the trailer is all I'm expecting.

I'm EST time and I was wondering the same thing. I have to work at 7am so I was stress about this but after all the comments about it just being a trailer I will just watch when I get off work.

11/11 is a Sunday, so you can stay up late on Saturday night (11/10) for the 3AM Sunday event. Then go to sleep the whole day on Sunday and be ready for work on Monday. If you work on Sunday 11th, you were screwed from the beginning.

erm, if you really need to be on when the clock hits,
then i hope they're prepared,
otherwise Ul'dah will crash and the whole thing will fail.

Oh... right... 3AM Sunday. I am slow this morning. Well, I suppose I can stay up if they make it worth staying up for.

Whereas the only confirmed thing we have is that something is going to happen once the doomsday clock hits zero (and it is likely going to be a trailer), we also just recieved confirmation that there will be new weather come the last ten days :D

Should hot patch the client during the maintenance to stream the producer letter after watching the world end.

That would be cute. Watching Yoshi in my client XD

Maybe this post from Yoshida will help clear things up for you guys. ;)

After tomorrow’s final save maintenance, the current version of FFXIV will enter its final stage. The weather will be altered even further, so I urge you to participate in these final 10 days! J

Will each day have a stage or will every day be the same stage? (I will be logging on, just want to know if I should be logging on everyday :P)

Though it's so close I will find out myself soon enough ehehe lol

I was a bit thrown off by the thought that for the EST folk it would be on Monday, but that is not the case...

Midnight Sunday 11/11 = 00:00 am PST on 11/11 which means 03:00 am EST on 11/11.

Midnight sparks the NEW day, so ya, the event will begin at the stroke of midnight leaving the old day Saturday 11/10 into Sunday 11/11 PST. :cool:

In 30 minutes the servers come up. Expect the FFXIV world to be in the final countdown with even more extreme weather and events. These next 11 days are not going to be saved, so a lot can happen. I understand we will all be saved i an event similar to FFXIII. Some sort of time rift or godly interference. These last 11 days will not be normal. I don't know if there will be anything new to do. I would like a Haloween event. That would be nice.

The fact that our character won't be saved doesn't mean that SE can't do anything through our accounts. Unlocks, achievements, collectibles and whatnot can easily be granted through the account as much as through the character.

That's how we unlocked collector edition items and special prezzies, after all, and SE could easily record who was present at the "crash" of the moon and unlock some stuff on their account.

I know, it'd be cool. One can dream :D

So.. i has noticed there isn't even a patch to download yet.
I'm glad that all the efforts are going into ARR,
that's better in the long run,
But if there's no real final event of real interest (other than cutscene),
I am dissapoint.

Considering that whatever will happen, if anything will happen, could have been there hidden in the code since way before today, or it could simply be GMs spawning monsters for all we know, I don't see like a patch or a lack of thereof could be any indication on what will happen.

Considering how deeply people comb the dats after an update, if anything new were to be added for this event even if added prior, it would have been found, so if its just them flipping a switch or spawning stuff, its definitely nothing new, since new mobs would have been found by now, all they do is tell how certain mobs should behave, for example normal corpse mobs vs Atomos corpse mobs, same model used, just scaled different with an effect applied to them.

I hope they are not having problems dumping the servers.... it could screw up the data. Also no patch doesn't mean there won't be one after the dump.

And? The files that control the weather, envirionmental effects and backdrops are't exactly part of those that are usually datamined, and those are enough to set the stage for a final event.

They don't even need any new mob, as they have everything they need: Imperial troops, centurions, magitek, alliance troops, and a crapton of monsters.

if you check the trailer that shows the final moments of Eorzea, there's nothing in it that isn't already part of the game's data.

All they need to make an in-game event is already in the game, so I don't see any indication on how the event will be or on it's existance in the fact we'll have a patch or not.

Guys: Just because there's no update means there can't be obvious changes to the world.
