A bit miffed that the devs haven't addressed issues with the new Diadem to curb the AFK parties/people leaving as soon as the initial mission is done. One would think that'd be an obvious priority. I've pretty much stopped doing it entirely because it's not worth queuing in there for 3+ hours a day, not seeing a single EM pop that day while you can't get anything else done because half the party insists on sitting on their arses.

Beyond that, bring on the story! I wonder if there will be a surprise trial waiting for us...

This could have far reaching and unforeseen consequences.

Not really. Can't do much with a trial account.

I dont know, but I guess they haven't put these in details... are they going to give free trial by level limits instead of days now? Like the whole 3.56 note seems very vague if they are adding important details later date lol. Why bother posting a patch note when they are not fully ready to explain? :'/

How so? People using the free trial will still not be able to take any classes past level 35, can't use pf or trade with others, no access to the market board and a number of chat modes, and can't join FCs. There are other limitations as well. I guess the only thing is that someone can play completely free while getting all of their classes to 35, which still isn't saying much and locks them out of plenty of content. I believe the gil cap for the free trial is something low like 20k, so even if they upgrade they won't break the game or economy.

For example someone can make 20 free trial accounts and play every TT tournament against himself in off-hours. Free trials have full access to Gold Saucer content.

Can they used the triple triad battlehall? They changed the way tournaments worked a few patches ago.

Apart from MSQ, the tome limit to 900 is probably the most interesting addition. I might have a go at the unlocked alex savage. The rainmaker hairdo looks nice, hopefully it will make an appearance. I assume the items, etc are being held off until a craft/gather update on Thursday?
No idea what that might entail. changes in scrip costs? increase to 900 red as well? If they do it for tomes, makes sense for craft/gather as well.

[Kogasan]

Do people still do the triple triad tourneys any more i gave up on them ages ago.

[Airget]

Removing the free trial time limit is a smart move even if 14 days is a lot. For any game that had ever offered a free trial, ask yourself. Did you pace the time you played or did you play it as much as possible to get everything done in that time frame? Odds are it's the latter so giving players the opportunity to pace themselves does offer a better incentive for them to keep playing since they can enjoy the game at their own pace without feeling rushed by the limitation of the free trial time limit.

There is going to be some serious Mitsurugi cosplay going on in 4.0 once Samurai is out with this Hair style.

or some Sice from Type-0 cosplaying.
