I'm sorry, but we won't be allowing outside peripherals to be attached to the PCs (or PS4s).

What, no PS3s? I demand that I play on PS3. Can I bring my own?

Sad times. I use a trackball and wanted to bring it

I play with a Logitech G13 and I have no idea how to play without one anymore. What do

[Fusionx]

Damn, I don't know how to play without an MMO mouse

Will MMO style mice like the Razer Naga or Logitech G600 be available or will they just be standard mice?

They had G600's when they had the Titan battle at PAX last year. (It's actually what persuaded me to buy one for myself!) I think a lot of it depends on if they get logitech to sponsor part of the event.

Will there be any character requirements like beating story or being lv 50?

If it's anything like the previous events (and it probably will be), you will not be playing with your own character. Instead you will be playing with premade event specific characters.

[JBenefiel24]

hmm that's unexpected and interesting. hopefully I'll be happy with my temporary character.

From what I've heard, they're usually decked out in pretty good gear, though most times they're missing cross-class skills and you're either not able or not allowed to modify your bars. Don't know if there's any real choice in regards to race/gender, but it's fairly unlikely.

You line up for said event- while in line, staff will group you up into your party. There, you can discuss which of the stations (job) everyone will play as well as your strategy for the fight. There is always going to be WAR, PLD, SCH, and WHM, DPS are usually DRG, MNK, BLM and BRD though I suppose there's a chance they might be throwing NIN into the mix as a special for FanFest.

The characters are premade, so you don't get to choose race, you're only choice is to pick the job you can play best while also allowing other people in your group to pick a job they are knowledgeable/comfortable with. Once you sit down at your station you'll get a few minutes to make changes to your bars to set it up how you like. It's never enough time, and you'll never get the exact setup you want or use at home. You're best option for a comfortable UI is to use the default UI now at home and get a good feel for where all of your actions are so that at FanFest, it seems more familiar to you.

Can we bring a flashdrive with our char profile saved on it so we don't have to redo our HUD and button set ups, gearsets, and all that stuff?

Edit: if we don't use our own chars, never-mind, wish we could tho.
