[Reminder] Are you ready to cry again? (2° Wave of Alpha invites tomorrow, 3 dec.)

[Azurus]

To be fair, as a long time ffxi vet (and still playing) ffxiv has been much better about keeping us updated. I have great appreciation for the community rep team

oh yes definitely, but today I cant help but be disappointed in the complete neglect of the Western audience as far as information on todays beta stuff.

Hmm, makes me wonder about 3 things.[LIST=1][*]Who got Abri started up again... I mean I've followed and enjoyed his posts pre Nov 26, but a lot after that have been, well ... no comment beyond "no comment"

I knew we'd be hearing from Abby again. lol I mean, a new wave of alpha! Come on! The only way we wouldn't hear from him again is if he actually got an alpha invite. So, I was predicting his QQing like I forecasted the sunrise. lol

[*]If the people championing the "SE screwed up by inviting non-actives without asking our permission" posts would still have supported "the cause" if we would have been in that round of alpha invites.

Of course not. Much like others bashing SE's handling of alpha, he is of the opinion that "If I didn't get an invite, SE is doin it wrong".

[*]Do you think the community reps or devs decided to yank people's alpha/beta apps based on forum behavior post Nov 26?

Probably so. And if they did, there's no WAY I'm getting an invite! I shut down an entire thread making fun of people QQing over not having an invite. SE probably has me written on the naughty list in permanent ink. XD

I mean, really? Sure it could have been handled better, but the company really shouldn't NEED to ask our OK when they decided to make a change that they feel is best for the progress of the game development.


They did what they thought was best, I think that recently they have at least earned the benefit of the doubt.

Nah, according to Abby, the people who have been handling this sort of thing for years and years are the ones who don't know what they're doing. It's the fans who are butthurt over no alpha invites that are the experts.

I know, I didn't get an alpha invite either, and I'm not butthurt over it. But that's because I'm doing it wrong. lol

Blah, I know two people who got in now, but not I. :x Oh well.

It has been CONFIRMED (I promise) that you, as in everyone else, will receive an e-mail when they confirm YOU are accepted into Alpha. In the mean time, read a book, go outside, etc.

JP twitter, EN twitter has nothing though which is pretty sad.

Also every two days was a general plan YoshiP mentioned in his letter.

I'm pretty sure they said this was based on logins though. As in they will look at the number of people playing and then go from there as far as more invites are concerned..
