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

Offtopic - But I think the cheapest rates was 12.99$ with restricted character creation. The 14.99$ was for the full amount.

Thanks!

Fixed!

I have no problem with SE getting players who quit in the beta or something more polished to show them the progress first hand... it really bothers me they are letting people who's accounts have been inactive for years to get into alpha. It just does not make any sense to do.

Alpha should be comprised of the die hard fans mainly, those who will not rage about something being incomplete or broken. I only hope it is a good mix of new and old, but getting in people who rage quit the game long ago is only going to get the game blasted on forums.

People will not care about the NDA, if a person who hated 1.0 hates the glitches or bugs in 2.0 Alpha it will be all over the forums that 2.0 will fail because of X reason. And even if the logical person knows it is only alpha.... it will increase the size of the mountain XIV has to claim to have a successful release.

I do not think anyone here knows everyone who got invited or the spread between active and Non-active(those who have not played in the last year), but I hope SE done the right thing.

Excuse me, does it say somewhere that they will stop sending alpha test invitations per mail this week? It's still tomorrow left. I for one are gonna chill my pants down and try to cheer up even if i too wanted an invitation first.

They mentioned in a post that all the mails have been sent out for this phase and that if we didn't get one (by now) that there were more tests coming up in the future.

Extremely safe to say that if you don't have one now, you haven't gotten in but don't be disheartened^^

I'll scout real fast for you, might take a minute!

Fast edit, lodestone mainpage:

We have recently begun sending notification e-mails to players accepted as alpha testers for FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn. For those who do not receive an acceptance notification this time, fear not! There will be need to fortify our ranks as time goes on, so your chance to take up arms in battle may come yet.



SE's mailer system is pretty awesome and this went up a few hours ago. Those who haven't received emails now won't until a later test D:

Thank you Nix.
Well, can't say i'm not dissapointed. But it's not the end of the world either. It's just like a lottery, you wanna win but rarely or never do. XD

Could you please link to that post? Or do you mean the original Lodestone / Twitter message?

Just wondering, because someone somewhere wrote about getting an invite 30 mins ago.

Edit: Nevermind, that was when they had checked their e-mail.

Sorry pumpkin, lodestone mainpage! If invites are still going out I'll totally eat my socks (and they're really nice socks too )
But don't be holding your breath just incase^^;

The wording doesn't explicitly say they're done, but it does sound very much like it D:

Yeah, after you added the edit I wanted to point out that it's rather non-finite, even if it does certainly allude to a conclusive "we've sent them all out". People will still hold onto any shred of hope they can though.
