Hi . My husband and I are new to FF14 but not new to MMO's. We will be playing on the PS4 and are excited to get started. We will be creating our toons tomorrow during the beta phase. We live on the east coast and we're thinking of joining a FC that would be understanding that we are new and might/will have questions. We are also looking for a FC that would be willing to help and advise us through our journey. We are not big on joining chat channels but will chat through typing. We are casual players and try to play as often as our child allows. At first we were thinking of just grouping together but then we thought that if there was a FC out there that would be willing to take us in and understand that we are new to the game then maybe we would do that instead. If it's possible to play the way we would like to play and be in a FC, is there one that can be recommended for us? Thank you so much for reading this and for all the help .

Thank You very much . Should we decide to join your FC, how do I contact you? PM/Tell you in game? Also, we pre ordered the game through SE but so far it hasn't shipped. I thought we would have early access but we haven't received a code either. Is it best to wait till we have the game in hand before contacting you or can we do it over the weekend during over the weekend while waiting for the game to arrive? One more thing, if I missed it I'm sorry but I can't seem to find the name of your FC for contact. Thanks again

I'll list our FC here too - Akatsuki's Pain on Malboro.

You'd have to contact them through the game, so ... For the PS3 we just did a digital download from the PS store. Are you getting physical copies? Otherwise you may have the download available to you already.
And yes, use a /tell in game. You can also send an application directly to the FC if you see anyone in it.

Thank you very much
We ordered the physical copies from the SE store. I was told that they "should" arrive in time for the release date but not sure if they will be here for the early access.

Hi again. I would maybe even suggest starting off on phase 2 of the PS4 beta that starts tomorrow. From what i gathered this beta will be on the live servers so you may create your character and play on Leviathan. (Phase 1 of beta was on Japan servers)
The beta will only be 3 days but should get you going for a few days at least instead of waiting for your copy.
You can for sure send me a tell in game as well we do have our own forum. Our Free Company is called Benevolence, we are part of 2 linkshells of the same name which is basically chat channels.

Playing it before getting the disk would require downloading it, and the Playstation Network is horribly slow. I got my PS4 recently and tried just downloading a 500 MB demo to check the system out, and the download took about 6 or 7 hours. Trying to download a full-size MMO would probably take a week. What's worse, the PS4 doesn't even allow pausing a download like the PS3 can, so that whole time you can't do anything else. Even if it comes late, waiting to get the disk would probably be faster.
