I'd actually given up on getting into the beta and then I got the email this morning. Kinda sad that the first thing I thought was that it was a phishing scam, lol.
Either way, I'm excited for tomorrow now! :P
For those that still haven't made it; there's going to be at least another couple of waves of invites I believe.
Wooo! Got in... First time getting accepted into a beta. See all of you who got invited in game.
Although shouldn't my account reflect that I am in? Or does it take some time for it to update? -- unless you can register two square-enix accounts under one email, and I'm trying the wrong account...
check back on that page for next invites, if you didnt get in
"Thousands of invites", hope the download is torrent then
Yeah indeed. Or a lot of fast connections to their servers if they use direct download
Yeah I have slow internet as is. 1.5mbps.. I found a torrent for the Alpha client so I'm gonna try and see if I can just patch to Beta. I heard the patching is just as slow if not worse than FFXI's was but it could just be some people bullshitting.
And i don't actually care about joining, leaves the game fresh for release and the summer for fammilytime.
Tough its positive that after the first beta test there weren't several NDA breeches with sad players that didn't like the game. So the game must be good and fun.

I just want to play it to make sure it runs on my computer. :P

It uses p2p and you can use the game client or something like utorrent, BUT you need to have correct ports open on your router or the DL speed is shit.
Using LOL is like saying "my argument sucks but I still want to disagree".

Do you have a link u could send me in private, so I have the client in advance?
I promise I will seed for a while with my 50/50 mbit

Sure thing.

Bah, I signed up the day the beta signups went active but then added my PS3 FFXIII code later. I bet that took me out of the running entirely for a PC beta invite. I'm saddened!

Below there should be a link to account management. If you can log in there, you can be 100% sure it's correct
Edit: Below meaning below the login box in the beta site
Lol.. grats.

Expect some major unpolish in that case
You could not log in because the service account in question is not registered.
If you would like to log in to the service, please log in to the Square Enix Account Management System and register the service account.
