Beta Test Emails Now Released

[Lucavi]

The media blitz begins and all these people who haven't touched the game since 2010 all of a sudden start crawling out of the woodwork demanding beta invites. So predictable.

You cannot say this without dropping in a Geese Howard sprite.

Unacceptable.

I got my email a couple days ago and I was a legacy member, but I didm't pay to play the whole time, it was an on and off kinda thing.

How has bug-testing a videogame for free become such an entitlement?

You cannot escape wrong desu.

I doubt most people that want into the beta that badly even report any bugs.

Karma for all the SE idiots bragging about their "superior sense of community" with their SE MMOs.

Here's your goddamned superior community.

Yeah they confirmed brd will pull out a harp when playing songs now, it won't be an equipped item like it was in 11, but you'll get the animation.

I am very please with how the npcs are life-like now instead of just all standing still.

[Lucavi]

They better be, after GW2 blew that shit out of the water.

Dunno if this was talked before since I wasn't following topics too close today, but did you guys notice the stats bar above the party info, seems that's the party bonus depending on the job in the PT?

It's mentioned in a couple of the write ups. The effect doesn't stack (i.e. stacking DRGs for DEX boost).

[Waraji]

ie. you get better buffs with the more class/job variety you have in the party.

[jwang]

Well with the addition of the Arcanist you can end up with 8 party members each with unique roles. It'll be good fun then.

[Churchill]

It'll depend on the actual bonus given (in terms of raw stats), the changes to combat formulas, etc. Having a ton of DEX may not actually be useful.

I saw people discussing this a couple of pages ago, so I'll try asking here.

Does anyone know how the buddy pass accounts will be handled? Little brother started playing with my buddy pass but never actually bought the game. Does that mean he doesn't have to re-buy the game or will he have to cause he never bought the box in the first place?

I remember reading somewhere that the official word was that buddy passes from CE's will still be honored.
