FFXIV Closed Alpha/Beta Discussion (Cancelled for this week)

[Razdom]

What do you think will happen if I try to log in without alpha access? Insta-ban from being picked in future?

I'm downloading to do some datamining anyway, not just stare at it. Thanks

this--->Cancelled for this week

when did that change from today was cancelled?

[Kiarax]

They cancelled todays tests and the tests on the 18th at the exact same time. Shortly after the Japanese alpha ended.

[Satyr]

so no NA test friday

[Kirb]

It's a good thing. They're probably tweaking a bunch of things for stability and going through the bug reports.

[Kiarax]

Chances are the visible queue display will be in by the time next test rolls around too. Should make things a lot less painful for testers.

That was added this time, so I'm sure that's a safe bet. And I'm almost positive that's not what caused instability at all, but I'm pretty sure I know what might have. Hopefully I'm wrong.

[Spira]

the visible queue display thing is already in. It was ready before session 3 and (probably the only thing) included in the minor version update prior to it.

Of course, NA/EU players won't be able to see it for some time.

Here's hoping that the server delays mean that they'll have time to do another client update that features more fixes.

[Kiarax]

Didn't they say they wanted a queue display on the log in screen or character select itself rather than the error that pops up when you fail to log in?

Hit us with your hypothesis, doc.

[Spira]

That would be in a future update probably. They're still working on the login system, just as they are still working on character creation.. but as far as we can tell, its not a major focus atm. Presentation is mostly cosmetic after all.

[YukonWildAss]

Can anyone tell me which OST Track is the Chocobo Theme? I have the latest version as far as I know from our Cactus friend and I can't find it, I've been going song by song!

they removed it (and around 40 other tracks) from the games folders after the first alpha test.
only way you can get it now is from the OST rip, track 40

[Kensaki]

40 is katamari de chocobo.

EDIT: Ops you meant from the client. =P

[Spira]

kinda wonder which he was referring too XD
but not like theres a choice about it now.

[Skeptic]

Good afternoon everyone, heard Alpha got canceled today and Saturday, bummer.

What did I miss minus the Drama?

[Kiarax]

Absolutely nothing.

[Cairthenn]

FFXIV Chocobo Theme

Listening to that while watching the .gif in your signature is a bit too much for me.

[Skeptic]

Absolutely nothing.

That sucks Kia >.<

So many pages now (most with drama) I didn't want to read through, lol. Look on the bright side, next time you guys get on the game should run smoothly.

Then again, it's SE.
