"さきほど新生 αテスターの増員を行い、当選メールを発送しました！ 応募された方はメールチェックをお忘れなく！"

Google translate:

"Done to increase the number of α tester newborn earlier, I was sending the winning email! Those who apply for do not forget to check your e-mails!"

Seems like they are sending second wave of invites to tester?

NVM miss read..

but yeah.. i would say the invites are still just for Japanese Player. They are on second Phase of Alpha btw, the one other Regions can kick in, in the 3rd Phase irrc.

Uh yeah they've long been in phase 2, and yes it's Japanese only.

I wonder when phase 3 will start.

[nibelunc]

I wonder how many time usually passes between alpha and beta?

[Akira_Tenshi]

They said the alpha would last a month so that is a week per phase, if all goes smoothly.

So the P2 already started? I suppose that from the next week P3 will start, (i'm pretty sure that during the live letter, we'll get the confirm)

There's probably going to be a week or 2 break between the phases, since alpha phases are only a few days a week for a few hrs a day, it's a stress test so yeah don't really need longer than a week after the initial set of tests.

What did you smoke? O_o

IF December, then beginning of it. And it would be really late for an Alpha which was said to be 1 Month with 4 Phases, while they are in Phase 2 allready.
