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

[SephYuyX]

Uh, /telling people isnt hard in XI even with long names, so im sure itll be the same, or as easier in XIV.

Someone has a name of Hurandalefigale Jupitarshar
Some people are dumb and will type the whole thing out, others will use their FL, others will use /t <t>, and if they arent in range..

A simple /sea all huran will do.
A list of all Huran's will pop up, you just select the name, and then tell.

I would assume XIV will have some sort of /sea function, so it shouldnt be very hard at all.

Personally I rather have the first name being unique and the last name being a space waster, people call you by your first name unless you did something wrong so I rather not have 3-4 people in the same area responding to a friend calling my name.

"Jonathan Alexander!! Did you cast firaga while our mages were recovering from that last blast?! 50 DKP MINUS!"


edit: Apologies to any Jonathan Alexanders on here.

Btw, in the Alpha v2 it keeps refering to the 'Twelve'. I skim through pretty much everything, but who is this refering to? 12 developers, or is there 12 something within the XIV storyline?

[Kirb]

The Twelve Gods in the lore.

[SephYuyX]

Yeah, I guess I should start paying attention to what I read now.

I honestly can't believe the speculation that goes on in this thread. Some of you, I honestly believe, are batshit crazy.

"I hate my life, i hate my life!!!"

A friend of mine thinks I'm completely obsessed with the game now...he actually sounded worried >.>

[vrumpt]

You have no idea.

i've been relaying status updates to a buddy of mine for weeks just so i can vent my excitement.

Needs moar youtube vids.

Also heres hoping that when SE realizes all of their alpha invitees go by Halo beta logic in terms of completion they will send another wave of invites out to replace the retards before alpha test #2

[Eldan]

I'll post some vids and pics then...

I support this.
