    They will announce when they will be doing all of that. I believe it's still in it's alpha phase which is only for friends and family to the developers I think.

    Re: Who Already Signed Up as the Beta Tester ?

    You are correct that it is in the alpha phase, but I'm fairly certain that the alpha is open to those that sign-up for the beta. The people are naturally quite few that they selected, but as they said in an interview. The alpha is PC only. When it reaches beta it will be PC and PS3. So don't expect any sort of beta notification for at least another month or two. Also do note that they have already expressly said in the interviews that the alpha and beta versions of the game will not hold 100% of the final content. They are only using it to test out systems and the overall designs of the game. So if you get into the beta and then see that the content is quite limited, don't think what you're see is the full extent of the content. The beta won't be an early look of what the final release of the game is with everything available to you. You'll be there to test the systems with I think they said only about 50% of the available content compared to the final product.
    Curious? There's no limits but your own imagination.

    Yea I did about a month & a half ago, and I haven't received an email from them either. Just give it some more time as Andromeda stated, & you might get lucky.

    Re: Who Already Signed Up as the Beta Tester ?

    Just signed up for it.
    Since signing up is still open, I guess they haven't started selecting people yet. And you'll only get a notification after the selection, and probably only if you are selected
    I don't know how many people they will choose, but early betas usually start with only limited amounts. And I guess the amount of people that have signed up will be huge.

    Re: Who Already Signed Up as the Beta Tester ?

    uh yea, i hope im selected lol >_>, anyways is it going to be a continental based? since i saw we had to pick the country we are in when signing up beta test, so far only saw UK US JP no more countries O_o, that also mean ppl from none of the above countries cant play ? :/

    The selection was about language and region, not country.
    If you're from Europe and you speak English, then you choose UK. It's as simple as that. Country of residence you get to select later in the process.

    I signed up for it when I got Final Fantasy 13 for ps3, it came with a code. Even if I don't get to play it, I'll watch others play it on youtube to determine whether I want it or not. =]

    Re: Who Already Signed Up as the Beta Tester ?

    I signed up but I guess that I'll stick to the PC beta testing rather than the PS3 one. I admit the fact that the PS3 will most probably have graphics better than those of my PC but I wonder how I'll be able to chat ingame without a keyboard :/.

    You can take a USB keyboard and plug it into your PS3. It is how I do all of my messaging on the PS3 between friends. It is a lot faster and easier than manually doing it.

    And I signed up via the FFXIII code. So I don't know if that helps to put you into a different list or not. It is certainly not a guarantee that you'll be in the beta by just buying FFXIII. I suspect the odds do improve though.

    Re: Who Already Signed Up as the Beta Tester ?

    I tried to but I don't have a code so it wont let me complete the application D:
    Final Fantasy games played:1,2,3,6,7,9,10,12,13
    Final Fantasy games beaten:7,10,13

    I really didnt get too much into 1-3, I got about halfway through 6, didnt play 9 that much, and played 12 at a friends house.

    It still lets you complete the application.

    I signed up last week

    No ff13 code though, sadly

    Good luck with the beta and I hope its fun. I personally don't sign up for betas. I'm a programmer and deal with code 9 hours a day. The last thing I want to do is come home and help some game company solve their bugs. I want to relax and have fun. Having a sneak peak at the game before it is finished is interesting, but I think it would piss me off from all the "obvious" bugs I would find.

    Starting from the next phase, we will have to possibility to create linkshells. So I took the opportunity to create a social group dedicated to beta testers on TFF. This way we can decide on which server to play and set up a linkshell on it. If anyone is interested please contact me via PM and I'll send you an invite.

    Re: Who Already Signed Up as the Beta Tester ?

    The closed beta turned out to be a complete fail. I never actually was able to play a single minute of FFXIV due to a launcher/patch issue that caused the program to immediately crash after running it.

    It's not like my issue was isolated, either. In the forums, the topic regarding this issue had hundreds of pages of posts within the first week of the closed beta, however we never got an official reply as to what was the actual problem with the launcher.

    So I went to their email support, and got this as a reply.
    "[t580396:e4f1] Cannot open launcher.

    Show Details
    Message body Thank you for contacting SQUARE ENIX support,
    We do apologize, however the SQUARE ENIX Support Center cannot provide any assistance with the FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta in any fashion, beyond providing assistance with SQUARE ENIX ID login information, such as ID retrieval, or password reset assistance.

    Any other issues regarding the FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta must be reported or addressed through the forums available on the FINAL FANTASY XIV beta website, available at https://dev-na.ffxiv.com/

    Thank you for contacting the SQUARE ENIX Support Center."

    So basically SE proved to be no help whatsoever and I gave up checking if there ever was an answer to the problem. That's why I have no interest in playing FFXIV post-beta.
