Eww, 13 hours. I do not have beta 4 access on PS3 so I suppose that is why I am not yet able to download. I do have the early access key still, but I hve yet to receive my e-mail telling me to enter my early access code. The only thing I can access on the PS3 is the preorder for the collector and regular editions, a static theme, and a video.

Sounds like a parenting problem. But seriously, I have no idea, that seems like an issue for customer service.

"2013/08/15 07:37 [NA PS3 Version] Version Update Issue (Aug. 15)
Right now we are experiencing technical difficulties on North American PlayStation®3 version where an error message saying "No valid service account is available to play FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn." when players press the login button on the launcher and they are unable to complete the version update.
We are currently addressing this issue with a cooperation of Sony Computer Entertainment and new updates will follow as additional information becomes available.
Please note that this issue is only occurring on the North American PlayStation®3 version. The Windows version, and Japanese/European PlayStation®3 version, are unaffected.
We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may cause."

I believe it wants the 20 digit code, correct? I still have the 18 digit code. I was not in previous betas, and I'm playing on PC.

For what it is worth, I was able to get around the "Unable to download patch files. [11003][20403]" error, but still not sure why it wouldn't support this configuration.

I changed the registry manually
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
I changed the "Personal" key to point to "C:\Users\%UserName%\Documents"
This stopped it from going to the network location, at least enough for the client to start loading.

I had changed the same key here: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
but it did not resolve it until I did it in the User Shell Folders

The client downloaded and update and it progressing from here.

It's not resuming for me. Started at 7334Mb. Reopened downloader and relogged in, 7334 remaining. After dl'ing 300Mb I tried closing it out again and relogging in....started at 7334 again.

My download speed also keeps dropping from 1.2Mb/s to like 100k/s after a few mins. Wtfook~

I am steady at 0.310 It's not that bad in a few hours I'll have it ready to go. Already downloaded 1.1gb.

Just do what I do, connect to my computer at home from my phone using Team Viewer. It has an Android app. It's free too.

The download started while I was getting ready for work... get it going just before I left for the day! Score!

Oh and I'm down to .6Mb/s downloading now. It's not my internet connection either. 221 minutes to go! (until it fails and I have to start over)

I wish I could get my wife into the game. She actually said it looked too "easy" and prefers FFXI.

I don't get it really.

Those download times seem realy long. I downloaded over wireless on my PS3 in like 90-100 minutes. With the install it was about 2 hours.

PC download is also about 800mb larger.
