I think I must be the only one not excited for beta. Playing it when no data will be saved is not very appealing to me =/

Then why did you even apply for beta then? /shrugs

Give it to someone who wants to play beta then =).

well it's a good thing if you don't get in then beta is for finding bugs, giving feedback; not saving data.

That's not the point of a beta though. Beta is meant for stress testing servers along with free bug testing from the community.

I have participated in plenty of beta tests (some currently at the moment) to know what they're for and I did my fair share of that in alpha and I will probably do more off and on. I am actually one of those people that sends detailed reports.

You have a fair point however I find it difficult to believe that so many people would get overly excited for stress tests and reporting bugs.

I have yet to see a post along the lines of "Boy I can't wait to submit a ton of bug reports."

No reason for people to get all over me for it and I knew the bugs / stress thing would be pointed out. Just saying I guess I am not as excited as some people.
Call me selfish for enjoying progression and not wanting to play the same area over and over when they've had a lot of time to iron out major issues as it is.. i'll accept that =) /shrug.

AFAIK wouldn't it be flagged for my account as was alpha? I'm not giving that info out lol.

Well, you do get a Beta Registration code ( if that's how your account gets flagged). Not sure if your account auto gets the status before putting in the code, I don't know that (because I wasn't in Alpha).

for alpha I was emailed a download link. My account was flagged so I could log into the client.

If I for some reason get a separate code, I'd be happy to give it out!

In preparation for the beta test of FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn, we have an announcement for players who meet the requirements for legacy status.

Before the beta test servers go online, an e-mail containing your beta registration code will be sent to the address registered with your Square Enix Account. Please confirm that your e-mail address is correct before the codes are distributed.
