    Question for the Devs. I was an Alpha tester and carried over into Beta. A registration key was note required for Alpha and as an automatic carryover none was issued for Beta. Do I now need to get a registration key for Phase 4 (Open Beta) or will I carryover again. Hope you see this prior to the deadline.

    I did register a code for PS3. I am assuming that this code only applies to PS3 for Phase 4.

    Yes I should be good for the PS3. My concern is for the PC. I was never required to register a code for that platform. I would just like clarification as I want to make sure I do not miss PC Open Beta due to a technicality.

    I have been in Beta since the beginning and only later applied for PS3 Beta access. Once I got the PS3 acceptance email, it included both a Beta Code and a PS3 activation code of some sort. The only thing I had to use was the PS3 code, since once I linked my SE and PSN account, it recognized that I already had a beta code registered, and was able to download, then play, from then.

    Please be advised if you do register a 2nd Beta code (while setting up your PS3), you will end up with a 2nd XIV Service account (with only the beta code registered to it) which you may not want and may be confusing to later add services (and not knowing which is which).

    Oh?

    I received a code and had to register for each (Alpha and Beta).

    Also, in my permanent options in my SE account it lists Alpha Test from Dec 2012 and Beta Test from Feb 2013.

    Weird how they worked that in the beginning. Went back and rechecked my confirmation e-mail for Alpha and there was no registration code, just a link to download the client. Never received anything for Beta, just downloaded the client and started the first day. My SE Account lists the same thing so I am going to assume that I am good. If not then I will just have to enjoy Open Beta on my PS3

    You are correct. I went back and looked at my Alpha email of December 10. It directed me to log into a certain page and create a username. From there I had access to the Alpha/Beta forums and was then able to DL the client. There was no code.

    However, alpha did not get me into beta, as Molly implied. Legacy got me into Beta and I was emailed a code for that, along with instructions on how to register it onto my SE account, on February 19.

    I do not believe that Alpha was automatic entry into Beta.
