tried the one from cairxiv.net three times last night, most it ever got to was 46% before it crashed.

Were you downloading the torrents or through the client?

I have to admit, I hate the client, I do hope they improve when they go from the beta to retail, I just can't see them pushing updates through that shitty thing.

The client is awful, one of the main reasons for this is probably because it's stuck downloading from an NA mirror.

Client; was purposefully ignorant of the torrent for lousy reasons.

Once people get started tomorrow and create a character, please PM me your names as I will be compiling a list to make sure everyone finds each other.

:Edit:
How do you go about torrenting it? I've been meaning to but tbh I've no idea how, lol.

If you're on windows 7...

C:\Users\Name\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Version\downloads\ffxiv-beta

Then there should be two folders, open them up and go to 'Metainfo' and extract the torrents.

Once you've downloaded them, put them in

C:\Users\Name\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Version\downloads\ffxiv-beta

and overwrite all.

You already have the torrent if you downloaded and installed the client from Cair.

I found 3 different torrents. I think I'll just download them from XIV. I know it's a lot slower but I would rather not have to mess around with other stuffz.

Lololol

it's not too hard, just find the torrents then double click them, then once bit/u/whatever torrent has finished downloading all the files simply put them in

C:\Users\Name\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Version\downloads\ffxiv-beta

and overwrite ^^

I believe you'll just go to the normal beta site and log in with your squenix ID and password. There, you'll be able to download the launcher and update.

https://dev-na.ffxiv.com/

Just a little side note, to help those who are trying, the p2p that they use is slow as shaite. You can find the torrent files stored at
...\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Version\downloads\ffxiv-beta\bca2a8ae\metainfo

and download them through a torrent program (then move them to the proper folder), which is 1 million times faster than letting it download with the ffxiv downloader. That's not an exaggeration.


Worked for me. I was never given access to beta, but my logins get me into the beta site now. haven't tried to download the client yet though.

Not for me, It just says: "You could not log in because the service account in question is not registered.
If you would like to log in to the service, please log in to the Square Enix Account Management System and register the service account."

Then If I try to register XIV Beta it asks me for a code lol.

same ***happens to me =[

Edit: Also interested in trying out with regulard ah peeps ;o

Finally got my download started. Got confused for a few seconds by the first two torrents. Especially when the update client didn't see them at first.

It'll be better when I'm on a more reliable internet connection. It completely killed FFXI. DCd me and then I couldn't get anything to load when I reconnected.
