SE is always SE... Rage inside... :/

Yes I'm sure their feedback will be absolutely invaluable since they know jack-shit about the game in the first place.

And yes I am aware Alpha is purely for stress/server testing, in which case I STILL don't see a point in this apparent priority to non playing users. How is playing a stress test with one zone and almost no content going to convince them to come back?

They'll play it once or twice and put it in their heads this is how the retail version is going to be, then proceed to not buy it or give a shit just like they did previously.

This. And this again.

Yes they did. Btw they just played the trial month then quited (most of them) .
And they don't have the active account who paid the last month (like us).

So they bought and """played""" the 1.0 "on the paper".

They just applied for alpha many time ago with an inactive account, just like us with active one.
Even if the requirements said that alpha was for who had an active account only.

At that time i was thinking: -Ok they can apply even with an inactive account, but they will not be selected, or at least they don't have the priority over who has an active account (so who PAID ).

And in the meanwhile ppl that still don't knew that 1.0 has end, got the invitation. Oh God i laugh to don't cry rotfl.

No one said you were guaranteed a spot, CE is not some handicap licence you can wave to get the space in front of the store. stamping your feet on the forums won't change anything.

I have a friend on FB that RIGHT NOW is telling me why he can't enter in alpha.

and after many talk guess what? He was trying to login from the OLD CLIENT, he don't even know that ARR is a completely new client and that the alpha start on 28.

SO i don't have tho whine about this? Expecially when the requirement said that only active account would be able to apply in alpha. Bah.
