least its noticed what your gonna do when you get to first play FFXIV

want to know beta schedule for curiosity sake.

next week can't come soon enough.

And because its already been blown out of proportion, note that just because beta site goes up, doesn't mean alpha is gonna start same day.

Yeah, most likely you won't be able to play the alpha on march 11 when the beta website goes live. The alpha could start a month after that but i'm guessing a week will be the longest you have to wait to step foot into the wonderfull world of Hydaelyn.

Not to mention the beta site will have forums of some kind.

That should prevent a majority of leakage.

SE instituting actual beta forums? How would they handle the language differences? Do you think they'd actually have a complex enough of a forum to have separate sections for each language?

I have to see it before I believe it. Unfortunately, I won't be able to see it until I get into the beta.

There's sites for each language, so it's likely they'll have teams for each forum. We'll see in a few days.

I wouldn't expect another round until they move to the next phase of testing. Which won't be for a while.

Im wondering if they will have some sort of marker indicating whos acct it is to deter screenshots. I could imagine some are going to get leaked. Well i hope :3

There we go!

**LinkNZ** · 2010-03-02 19:30

Ah well, guess one of the other hundred thousand games I want that are coming out in the next few months will have to keep me busy instead.

Or I could start leveling subjobs again on FFXI. ;(

**Warudo Ecksu** · 2010-03-02 19:39

You should just go out and have a RL now while you can cuz we all know once FFXIV comes out, the divorce rate on these boards is gonna go up. More people will be dumped by their significant others. Our RL friends are going to hate us cuz "cant go to dinner gotta level up." We're also going to get fired by our jobs.

I'm exaggerating, but right now I feel like I need to get RL and console gaming out of my system.

**Koul** · 2010-03-02 19:44

could just get your bf/gf whatever hooked on it. that's what I plan on doing :F

**Talragan** · 2010-03-02 19:51

Got in. Played ffxi for ages, didnt play for last year, reactivated month ago.

**LinkNZ** · 2010-03-02 21:19

My GF plays a bit of FFXI but not hardcorez and dedicated enough!!1! Got to level 30 and she had had enough of it I think.

Doubt XIV will work on her laptop so prolly just stick to Mario Kart.

Ah well. *uses red shell*

Let us discuss methods to get significant others addicted to drugs.
I made mine believe I am the sole source of cocaine on this planet.
