Legacy Beta Test

[Kirito]

I would be surprised if they let all legacy members in on day one. I am sure there will be rounds of invites like they did for alpha.

If so then they would have said so... Let us not forget they know exactly how many legacy players there are and they have a couple of servers from the alpha... they could even use some of the old 1.0 servers...

Yea, but they'll have a shit storm otherwise. I'm not saying one way or another, but we should all be in before the end of phase 1. And being that Legacy members don't have to apply, even if they weren't in the alpha, pretty much tells me they will make it in day one. That's just a little reasonable deduction though, nothing solid of course.

I doubt this, the roadmap says 5-10 servers will be up in beta 1. there were only 10 servers in 1.0 after the merge so beta should be able to hold every legacy account. And not all beta players will be logged in at the same time, also some players have more than one legacy account(and not all dual box).

Just because it says you can doesn't mean you will. Pointing that out in case some legacy accounts dont get an invite on day one.

But people will make complaint threads anyway.

Laughed so hard at that picture. TY!!

I think the "can" means they can just get the client and go if they choose. You're right, can doesn't mean will, but I think that's if you as a Legacy chooses not to.

If you applied for Alpha, you cant even apply again? so what does it matter. it's not like legacy people didn't apply for alpha.
Legacy people will get in, then they're out of the *lottery* so it wouldn't matter if they could apply a million times.

If you got accepted into the alpha you don't need to apply again... if you didn't get into the alpha, you didn't apply for the 1.0 ps3 beta, aren't legacy, or don't have an active ff14 service account (you wouldn't be here) you'll need to apply to play the beta...

Yea, what Kirito said. All it means is that they have your application in line with the rest already. It's just to try and prevent duplicates. I believe during 1.0 there was a warning or something that multiple entries would be disqualified for testing or something. that was too long ago though, i cant remember correctly.

Having everyone who is Legacy, download the client and log on day one will be a valuable test.

Exactly, it's a major stress test. Something that will need to be ready on release day.
