About Beta invitation

[Cedri]

Maybe they are some countries that has been left out because the law, but it's not the point of my country, there is no law here to left it out, they just don't want it to look for us when it's about contest, and even for crysta, like i said, if i put any adress from USA, i could use crysta here paying near my house, but now that i use my adress i don't has any option, can't even switch the region :/.

If that's the case that it works with a fake address and not with yours in SA, then it's definitely an issue (most likely legal) that you may not be aware of. It could have to do with a law on the Japanese end.

It's don't ilegal, because Crysta work with ultimatepay system and ultimatepay work on south america, it's SE that don't let use use crysta when i made the account on south america but it let me on a NA account.

Anyways, the point of the thread is this will change on beta and SE will look outisde of NA, JP and EU. There a are a lot of problem with SE if you're not from those regions, remember back on 2008 on PlayOnline system started to use a system "Veryfied by visa" (and i don't remember how it was called on mastercard) that if you were from SA you always got an error. Manage to play it giving my credit card info to a friend from NA, so he put the info on his xbox (verified by visa thing only happened on PC).

Looking back at OP, this is an entitlement thread.

Looking back at OP, this is an entitlement thread.

Pointing out that SE have discriminated against their Latin American customers for tester selection is entitlement?

That's an assumption, and even if people from South America got accepted, they wouldn't be able to confirm it here due to the NDA.

Conspiracy theories! Conspiracy theories everywhere!

Can't really say more about it.

I think we would all like to test this game and give SE our feedback.

I think as people who dealt with the game for 2 years, we are a little entitled to help with the development. As customers who have stuck with the old version for so long, I think we would be an excellent choice to find out the issues of the game and bring them to light. I don't think wanting to help is anything worth belittling, and I certainly don't think OP is just in it for "duh early access demo". She just wants to know if her geographical location will restrict her to the beta as it did the alpha. I don't know where people are getting this holier-than-thou attitude from, acting like any critique or even question about Squares actions is tantamount to heresy, but it needs to stop. Protecting Square from negative (or in this case just plain curious) comments isn't helping them.

On 26/11 i got up really happy, ARR alpha it started and for some reason i was thinking something like "Hey i was so loyal to SE, played FFXI for 7 years, then bought the collector edition back on september 2010, maybe i got a bit luck on getting an alpha invitation". After checking my email account my happyness tourned to angry then sadness.

Then why put that in the OP at all?

Everyone needs to stop treating alpha/beta like early access demos to the game.

Stop blaming the players. Blame western developers that does this. As for the topic itself, SE doesn't officially support South Amercia as I recall (no studios there) so there's a good chance they may overlook it if you had to sign up as NA/EU with your SE account.
