SE is always SE... Rage inside... :/

[Dragonheart]

I'm not whining because i didn't receive the alpha invitation, but a lot of my friend that have quit the game AFTER THE FIRST MONTH FROM THE RELEASE GOT IT! And me (and others of course) supporting the game and paying for the crappy 1.0, didn't receive it.

Only who had an active FFXIV account was supposed to get the invitation right?

Now tell me dear SE, for the love of god WHY???

It was a kind of application site bug? If this was wanted? Just need clarification about this.

There's a lot of us that didn't receive it, but sadly paying every month and supporting the game doesn't guarantee you a spot though I'm pretty sure they mentioned somewhere that they gave some priority to active accounts. They're going to want to entice some people back though and what better way to get them to re-sub once 2.0 hits? To show them the progress they've made so far yet give them a chance to yet again test a game and help them rebuild.

Good job so far living up to those words. Seems like everybody else is getting in first, and then the people who had active accounts "might" be able to get into beta.

I think it's a little misleading at the moment since we can't hear of any current players on forums who did get in or they'd be breaking the NDA^^;;

Try not to be disheartened, other phases will come along soon~

Sad but true I was gonna rage as well but who cares... yoshi clearly doesn't. I been playing and paying since beta (when they did start making us pay)

Could you be any more petulant? You didn't get an invite, therefore the developers don't care? Yeah, it couldn't be that they may also want help from those who were turned off by 1.0 to get a wider perspective. Nope, it's all because they just don't care, darn it! ::Insert massive eye roll here::

I'm not sure all the invites got sent out yet, and I think those of us that paid all this time for it should have gotten a better chance at getting in.

HOWEVER!

SE is trying to get those customers back, show them they are really trying to fix the game and get them to consider returning. Its more a marketing thing than anything else imo.

If they quit and like improvements, they may come back. We stuck around so they say we're not as likely to leave.

I understand the rage.

I understand the rage.

I don't, at all.

It's an alpha test of a video game, something that's incomplete and still full of bugs (otherwise it'd be called a 'beta'), rage is an entirely irrational emotion and a worrying sign.
