I wanna get a group of BGers to test out stuff like Battle Regimens, do some missions, kill higher level shit.

I'm in!

p.s.: where are the EU times for tomorrow?

I just got a beta invite this morning linked to my account this applied for alpha with a looong time ago. Unfortunately I'm out of town and haven't been keeping up with this too well... do I have a certain timeframe to claim my invite before it expires? I'm sorry if this has already been answered, I check the OP which had no info.

There are no more regional login restrictions, so the times are the same for everyone, just need to convert them to your timezone.

The times in GMT are:

Tuesday, July 13, 2010 – 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. (GMT)
Tuesday, July 13, 2010 at 10:00 p.m. – Wednesday, July 14, 2010 at 8:00 a.m. (GMT)

Thursday, July 15, 2010 – 12:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. (GMT)
Friday, July 16, 2010 – 12:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. (GMT)

I wonder if those upcoming adjustments they listed will be implemented before Tuesday's beta? I want to get crafting leves back so I can at least fuck with the system, but if not, Im just gonna grind my panties off somewhere.

There shouldn't be a time frame. From what I remember there's no function to activate your account, it's just active and ready to log on at the date mentioned in your email.

PM me if your favorite boss is ______ or you want to switch over to the dark side.

Sephiroth is for wankers. Real talk.

In the other waves of invites, does anyone know if all of the emails were sent at once? Or were they sent out over the course of a few days?

And also, UK is GMT+1 during BST.

In the beta. But, my PC barely finishes the benchmark program. This could be bad for my credit card...

Build a new pc instead of buying one. Much better imo.

Source? I've been following this topic like a hawk waiting for an answer as to if there will be a search function to no avail.

Well i got my long awaited e-mail for my beta invite!!! I am guessing SE just hasn't updated or activated the beta on their end yet? From what i have read here , i wont be able to log into the beta site until tomorrow ? Because as of now i am not able to log into the beta site , i get this error "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."

So i am guessing that tomorrow the site will let me log in and download the client ? Is that the way the beta works when you get an invite?

I am just a bit worried , could i get some reassurance ? Thanks all i appreciate it, would also like some tips on which server to hop into, don't wanna do this alone!

Sincerely Sock!

Maybe. I know some email providers take forever getting mail in from certain sources. See the Army's AKO system, yahoo sometimes, and MSN. But I doubt it.

**Rofflemau** · 2010-07-12 10:18

yepyep, will be lots of people downloading the client the moment it goes up lol

**sockpirate** · 2010-07-12 10:18

Thanks man! I really appreciate it, i have been waiting for this since i was able to even apply! I played the poo outta ffxi, loved that game and cant wait to play the poo outta this one!

**qpoiuwer** · 2010-07-12 10:19
