Server maintenance uploaded a downloadable quest to the US servers, and also added GI banners to the lobbies. I sure hope that JP players (and JP HL users) cannot see these or do the quest, because that would lame DX

**Quest Spoiler**




The US only quest is strange. The map is messed up (grid form, in the shape of a connected G and I) and it's a 2 vs 1. FOmar/RAcaseal vs You. The FOmar uses a lot of Tech Halfguard items, and the RAcaseal has no stratagy, as far as I can tell. I saw her summon a Morfos, and a Bartle, a freind saw a Crimson Assassin. They play Dice+1's, so assists of your own are overwritten. Take advantage of thier Dice bonus cards, and thier Immortality.

You then get the Game Informer Card, neat prize that doesnt do much other than sit on your trophy shelf:

Actually, to heck with this. US players should *not* have to buy a USB memory card just to play all of the download quests. This Game Informer situation just finally pushed the line too far for me, not to mention another JP-only quest has been announced for the Dremaga magazine card.

I'm sick of this. Leaving for FFXI ASAP, though at least the community here and on TA was great. That may be the only part that I will truly miss about this game but the poor service from ST all of these years for US players has finally pushed me too far.

That and I can get the complete FFXI package (game + HDD + ethernet adapter) for $65. >_>

If you're gonna quit because of their bad service, you shoulda done that a long time ago.
I got screwed over plenty of times:
The v1.0 situation.
Having to buy the US version so I can play with you guys.
Getting charged twice for HL multiple times.
Importing PSO Ep.III only to find out it was all in Japanese.
Getting banned for bringing an S-Rank online.
Got corrupted (Only once, which is entirely my fault really)

Then you have the double save situation, hacking, illegal items, FSOD, and whatnot.
Even after all that, you don't see me complaining. Even if I couldn't download those quests, those magazines aren't that great anyway. I'd be happy with the Cipher & Richie cards =)
To me, the good things outweigh the bad.
But if FFXI is your thing, then you go ahead and get your game on.
And $65 for the whole package? I'd play FFXI too.
