Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Alpha test now accepting applications

Active Players get first dibs, everyone else has to wait till Open Beta I assume.

I filled out an application. I know that I may not be the best candidate for Alpha Testing, but I decided to try it anyway.

No bug shall escape!

Go my Nvidia Geforce GTX 660ti! Go! :D Show these gamers what a powerhouse you are on my 3rd gen intel core i7 2600k and Direct X 11 Capabilities!!

Nice, should easily be max settings for you /jelous.

Wonder if they will have the same selection blunders as last time, I remember applying for the 1.xx beta on my old laptop, putting my old laptop specs in (no chance of running the game) and I got accepted, had to rush out to get a new one lol.

Well I signed up. Lets see how this goes. Curious as to what factors will determine selection.

Actually, the ones more likely to get into the alpha are the folks with low end PC's...they probably want to see how much those types of computers can handle the game...although alpha is usually just to test the servers and make sure they can hold enough players..but hey, what do I know :o

Probably the Followng:

- Your Purpose on being in the beta
- How much time you will be taking part in the beta a day
- You computer Specs ( For high and low spec testing, so they will probably take some from both tiers)

Those three are probably what they will be looking at the most.

Hopefully this will be nothing like the GW2 beta signups :-)

Active account, probably legacy as well given that requirement. Otherwise it's just probably them shift clicking a bunch of names at random.

What drama happened with their beta program? I completely ignored GW2.
