Im at the point where there should be 2 bars it says "checking update file D2010.08.30.2000[1/4] i will go all the way up to 96.6% then i will get a message error which reads : Error 20524.
has anyone seen this, and if so how does one fix it?
OK not that I should be doing it..but how are those of you using refreshes getting them to work? Since the link redirects to the "busy" page, refreshing is just going to refresh THAT,

I might have had a fleeting chance to get to the application form if I had noticed right away that the app button was on the bottom of the splash page, but instead I read on the top where it said to "log in" and wasted all my time trying to get to the account server. Now, it looks like the only page I can get is this one. Likely the server will be slammed to inaccessibility until early in the morning, if not later.
It'd suck if I somehow miss this boat. The way I see it, I deserve a key just for using their torrenting patcher to provide probably twenty to fifty times the data I downloaded in uploading to other users in the time it's taken me to reach the 92.6% on the first file. I've been their free file server, what more do they want?

thanks
I'm stuck on 99.6%, have been for quite a while.
its not that im stuck, it will get to 99.6 then give me that error message if i click ok it will shut down and i have to start over
I'm on my 3rd day of downloading, so I don't think I have to worry about getting my code just yet. I've gone from 89% to 92% in 6 hours. SE kicks ass.
You can use a regular Bittorrent client like uTorrent to download the patch files under the DocumentsMy GamesFINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Versiondownloadsffxiv-betad96437e6 folder.
There are 2 folders in that one. metainfo and patch. Use the torrents in the metainfo folder to download the patches to the patches folder.

anybody that is still trying get anything past the server error screen or maybe even close to loading?
I kinda wonder that too. I keep hearing people who got keys a while ago getting in, but is anyone still able to apply and get a key? or is the site just totally down?
Been sitting here since 7:05, right when it came up and still can't get a key. I don't even think it's trying to load the login screen anymore, it just INSTANTLY goes to the Server Error screen.

Yah I wonder they have just decided to save some headache and redirect the "Apply for Open Beta" button's target URL to the "http://entry.ffxiv.com/busy/" page for a while w/out even trying to hit the server to see if it's too busy, heh. ;/
Next thing you know they'll just point the button directly at it and bypass any redirect!
think i messed up a step got in finally but it take me too account page too input ff14 key but i never saw anything saying sending key dont want restart becuase of lag crashing anyone know were on account page you go too request a key?

I'm an idiot but yes still stuck on 99.6%
An hour and half later... still no progress =(
Good luck everyone. Got a key but can't get it registered and seems like the login is borked anyways. Gonna go play something else and try tomorrow.
client is all updated.. servers are still down though...
my client seemed to update fine if i just left it alone minimized.... it seemed to get stuck with no progress but eventually it finished...
oh and looks like we have 20 servers

My F5 key is slightly wounded after all that refreshing though lol.
I just clicked Play!!!!!

Finally in-game. creating character now.

The most erroneous stories are those we think we know best - and therefore never scrutinize or question.
I am also in-game now.
