You are here: The first in a series of patches for Final Fantasy XIV has gone live, publisher Square Enix has announced.
The update makes a huge arrange of improvements to the much-maligned MMO, including tweaked skill points allocation, improved UI response time and a more accessible user interface. Have a look at the official website for full details.
Square's MMO came in for some heavy criticism upon release in September with the publisher having to extend the free month-long trial period while it worked on fixes for bugs and faulty gameplay.
Square Enix VP of software development Hiromichi Tanaka told Eurogamer earlier this month, "the development team is working really hard to bring FFXIV Gil back to the level we planned to have ready for the players."
This patch is the first fruits of that labour but a wide-ranging series Final Fantasy XIV Gil
of updates are planned for December and January too.
The November update for Final Fantasy XIV FFXIV Gil brought with it a variety of improvements, and more are slated for the upcoming December update, but there's still a number of concepts within the core game that might be unclear. Previous developer dispatches have clarified a variety of topics, and the most recent one discusses the high-risk, high-reward faction levequests. It also talks about how server loads have been split up for areas, thus resulting in certain consequences for players wandering during regional levequests.
Faction leves are familiar to any player over level 10 -- by completing several regional quests, a player may earn standing with FFXIV Gil a faction that can then be turned in for faction leves. The rewards for completing faction levequests are significant, but they require players to "spend" faction standing to access them. Of course, since successful completion can lead to more advanced leves, there's some motivation for players to take the plunge. Take a look at the official dispatch for the details as well as maps of how Final Fantasy XIV's Final Fantasy XIV Gil
regional server loads are divided.
