It's not make or break if I do or don't get it, but I'd like the denotion on my account if it's still possible.



According to a translation Catapult posted earlier in the thread, it seems like the beta is not supposed to start until November now, which is why I asked the question about legacy status.

Yeah, "Which" beta are they referring to? PC? PS3? What "Type" of Beta is to start in November and for which platform PC or PS3? This is why we need info on " what beta is starting in November" PS3 is Obviously is getting a Closed beta.. but is PC getting a Closed beta as well? or is it going to jump ahead, since PC has been out for 2 years already?.

All these actually play a part. We know PC and PS3 are getting Betas, but does PC get a jump start? or PC and PS3 will be on the same Beta stage?

Auch wenn einige Punkte in Bezug auf den Beta-Test noch nicht entschieden sind, möchte ich euch vorab einige Infos geben, damit ihr etwas beruhigter sein könnt.
Even though a number of specifics with regards to the beta-test are not yet decided, I want to give you some info up-front so that you can calm down a little.

Zuerst einmal: es wird eine PC-Beta geben und es tut uns leid, wenn die Roadmap für Verwirrung gesorgt hat.
Firstly: There will be a PC-beta and we apologise if the road-map had caused any confusion. (Some people were asking if the beta was only for PS3.)

Momentan planen wir, mit dem den Beta-Test von FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn im November zu beginnen.
Currently, we are planning to begin the beta test for FINAL FASTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn in November.

Natürlich werden wir unser bestes tun, um den Zeitplan der Roadmap einzuhalten aber wie wir bereits in der Vergangenheit gesagt haben, steht die Qualität des Spiels für uns natürlich an erster Stelle. Um diese Qualität zu gewährleisten kann es sein, dass wir unter Umständen vom derzeitigen Zeitplan abweichen müssen. Momentan braucht ihr euch darum aber keine Sorgen zu machen, denn bisher verläuft alles nach Plan.
Naturally, we will do our best to keep to this timetable in the roadmap, but as we have said in the past, the quality of the game is our highest priority. To ensure this level of quality, it may be that we have to deviate from the timetable occasionally. However currently, there is not need for concern, because everything up to this point has been going to plan.

Ich hoffe, dass ich eure Fragen beantworten konnte und entschuldige mich nochmals dafür, dass unsere Roadmap für Verwirrung gesorgt hat. Wenn ihr noch weitere Fragen habt, werde ich mein bestes tun, um sie euch zu beantworten.
I hope I was able to answer your questions and once again apologise if our roadmap had caused confusion. If you have further questions, I will do my best to answer them.

Currently, we are planning to begin the beta test for FINAL FASTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn in November.

<------ No where it says what kind of Beta nor what Platform is doing what kind of beta.

Firstly: There will be a PC-beta and we apologise if the road-map had caused any confusion. (Some people were asking if the beta was only for PS3.)

We know there's a PC-Beta but what kind of Beta? ( Alpha? Closed? Open?)

I'm sure at Gamescon will get this information, I can't wait to know the date! =)

Well its only August and September, end of September/Early October they Start the First Phase of beta, the November Beta could be anything PC will probably get a head start of PS3 on Playing FFXIV ARR.
