Global Alpha Test Start Date

[DemonFury]

Doesn't it occur to you that many are passionate about getting into the alpha because they want to contribbute to making ARR a better game?

Considering the amount of dedication it took to stick with this game, I don't see it as such an unrealistic possibility. Second guessing the motives of people you don't know doesn't exactly work very well when trying to bring a sensical argument.

Many consider testing a game they're passionate about not only a responsibility, but also a honor, as they're allowed to give their (little as it may be) contribution to the game's development, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

honor my ass quit whining you will get in the game when you get in and thats that.. end of discussion

Considering some of the people who got in their definition of active seems to mean, bought FFXIV and played during the trial month. But its their game they can let in whoever they want.

This is weird. I logged onto recheck the alpha application. And whenever I log into it I now it, error "your region is different". I logged onto the english application too, and my account is in the region "the americas". Maybe SE saw the problem are currently working to fix it?

I tried it too, got the same error.

I don't know if this will shed some light for you:

This link: http://entry.ffxiv.com/alpha/index_na.html is the link I applied on (see the "na" = assuming North America). If I attempt to apply here, and enter my login info, it simply tells me that I've already applied.

This link: http://entry.ffxiv.com/alpha/index_en.html is the one the link currently on the main page of the Lodestone (Alpha Email announcement) takes you. Not sure what the "en" might stand for that is different, but when I click on it, it tells "the region is different".

Neither "close" button works on either of the links.

I see... The en was probably for England or Australia. Just weird that they posted it on the NA loadstone...

Whats important, is that the testers do their best to make sure ARR is in the best shape possible. No matter who they are.

^^ THIS --- Yes please... this is all it matters for these testing stages, as long as finished product comes out the way it should be... not like ver 1.0 release and enough content to keep new players in we should be good.
