What are your Phase 4 Plans?

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

Start as CNJ and do all the related class quest and main quest stuff up until I can join a GC (most likely the Adders). Probably pick up THM during my travels too. Actually, thinking about it, might just pick up every class as I travel cities just to have them unlocked. Anyways, do some side-leveling of THM when bored. Once in GC, get a chocobo. From there, work on main quest, dungeon running, annoying other Fat Chocobo members, etc...

My goal for open beta is to learn how to converse with people while playing on PS3.

I'll finally be able to play for at least part of the open beta. Like Del, my main plans will just be getting acquainted with the game, as I wasn't able to play much during the very end of 1.0.

This one actually is a pretty good goal.

For anyone who doesn't know, according to Squenix's plans, Phase 4 should start 1 to 2 weeks from the end of Phase 3. That's a lot sooner than I would have imagined. It's also only going to last 1 to 2 weeks.

* Circumstance may necessitate the deletion of character data.

Yeah... not too confident about Phase 4 characters not being deleted.

Just to lvl my archer up and get my brd. But there things I need to do before phase 4. Try to learn the keyboard shortcut for FFXIV. I remember in FFXI to two most important thing to me when communicating were Crtl+R and up arrow. They don't seem to work on this game anymore. I just figure out that instead of Crtl+R it now Alt+R and I still haven't figure out what if anything can repeat the last thing you typed. Like on certain quest specially the escort mission I got sick of retype /beckon over and over again where in FFXI all I would have to is type it once and push up arrow.

It's up-arrow. Not sure why it didn't work for you. Your cursor needs to be active in the text box.

While I wouldn't get overconfident, I don't think they would spend this long talking about how they intend to keep character data carrying over from phase four and then not go ahead with it unless there is some disaster. So far everything has been going ahead pretty smoothly so yeah, I think the character data shouldn't be an issue.

Basically you should play in phase four as if you're going to have everything you do remain done. There's no point in spending on the assumption they won't carry over data and then raging about how all your gil is gone come launch, that's for sure.

Still, there's a reason I've taken time off for launch and not phase four (although if things go ahead swimmingly I may end up being home for open beta anyway).

Typing on a PS3 feels different from PC. I have a laptop that would play the game on high setting very well, but I still prefer to play on my PS3 with the controller. idk I'm weird, I see how like way more people want to play on PC verus PS3 on this forum, but I prefer PS3.

Why not play on the laptop and plug your controller in? That's the best option by far.

People have used these in beta with lots of success.

[Del Murder]

Oooh that is pretty cool.

[Hattoria]

I am going to treat this as the launch, as they said it is basically a soft launch. That means lvling, story missions, and crafting. My XI LS is also going to be active so maybe a few dungeons.

Well
1) my primary goal will be to get my main to the stage when I can travel to the other cities and get all the Aetheryte are get the second class I need to 15.
4) reserve the different toons I plan to have, Like I plan to have 1 toon for my Dragoon/Monk/maybe Redmage my main, then one for black mage/white mage might go for paladin/warrior too(just to make sure I can get the names in case they're saved).
2) hopefully get onto the same server as the Fat Chocobo linkshell and connect with people. Do we know what server the linkshell will be on ?
3) maybe put effort into the crafting system
