With ya on that one dude, but damn if I out lvl my character on the jp server I doubt I will ever come back to NA, currently playing on Durandal. Funny thing is I don't even see any latency on the JP servers I have tried(tried 5 just to see if there was a difference), and I am not located on the pacific coast either. In fact I am in the Midwest and I swear there is a lot less leg on jp server for me than on Adamantoise.
Probably nothing at all man, in the terms/services it pretty much says that any payment received is for the "final" product at launch on the 27ths of August.
All in the wording actually. We received the EA as a gift for choosing to pre-order. The EA was in fact not part of the actually pre-order commitment and was instead offered as a bonus gift for choosing that option.
On another note, still getting 1017 but haven't brought myself to click on the jp server.. Hate doing stuff twice in 3 days on mmo's.... what a poop of a day 109 degree heat index here, been that way for about a week here.. Its not too bad though I like the heat, problem is I work for a garbage company LOL. Riding around on the back of a garbage truck, just imagine...
90+ tempratures all week long + a weeks worth of food in a trashcan(or barrel -_-) = equals things that thrive in the deepest darker regions of hell itself... oh the creepy-crawlies I seen today...-shivers a bit- It was horrific did you know some of them are like 2 inches long... but rarer still are the ones that get that long and are an inch in diameter... By the way creepy-crawlies are what me and my coworkers have dubbed the maggot...
But I was in a good mood all day, just to get home... Promising myself it didn't matter cause the game would be fixed to day all the problems would be solved... well guess what... 1017... Spose it was my fault I got my hopes up, but eh... this sucks!
