What happened to legacy members?

I thought legacy members where going to get first wave of invites. Did this change and go random?

To the best of my knowledge Legacy members were never promised priority in the selection promise.

Could have sworn i read an interview that legacy members would most likely get in. Im disapointed i didnt get first wave considering the time i put in and all the free time i have on my hands for testing.

They've never even promised us invites. All that has been said is this:

GE: Do you have any ideas yet on how will people get into beta?
Yoshida: We decided not to tie it directly to the legacy campaign, but we want to prioritize getting the current players that are playing now into beta.

He said that he'd try to get Legacy members in first.

Also the Alpha test is JP only for now. The English one should start in a few weeks.

But yeah, there was no promises just hints that Legacy members would most likely get in the Beta.

Current Phase = Phase 1

Phase 1 and 2 = Japanese Accounts only

Phase 3 + = Global

Has been said multiple times.

Thank you for the info and clearing up my confusion.
