Alpha Tester Acceptance Mails Heading Out!

The first thing I did was check my email and I was like dam didn't get in. Then I saw they aren't sending any out to anyone except JP players for now.

there is multiple phases of alpha the first week or 2 which is what he was asking about is slated to last 1-2 weeks....(that 1-2 weeks is JP only, then it is open to other regions) thats what I was stating in my original post

Sure, but it doesn't say when alpha will start. This is all just a ploy by SE by sending out emails but not announcing a start date! I still predict a 2014, or maybe even a 2015, release!





/sarcasm off

I feel like we have moved a tiny little inch closer to release, now how about a start date for that alpha?

I don't think Phase 1 will last long at all, maybe 1 week, 2 tops, then near the end we will get our acceptance emails ready for phase 2.

I believe the picture below sums up how I feel right about now...

That was worth quite the giggle.

Well I hope all the crying can stop now. They are behind they aren't telling us when alpha will start boo hoo. With this announcement I feel everyone should now be assured that everything is going as planned.

Planned: Late September - Early October for Alpha.
Planned: When worlds goes offline the Beta will commence, which would mean in early-mid November.

So there still can be delays and thinking it will start exactly end of october is very hopeful lol. I don't think anyone really cried about it, more like disappointment that SE is actually behind on everything, since what was planned has been the word for the last year up until around E3-Gamescom, then we learn differently.

Don't see this happening. SE has already stated that these will be controlled tests....I.E. people in certain places doing certain things. People blitzing probably won't happen til Beta.
