FFXIV Random Speculation/Question thread IV: I got beta inv but my 5 year old PC can't run it

You can rock in it? I don't know but I've seen them before, and they are quite comfortable, not sure about extended usage though.

I have no idea if yours can, I was kinda joking. Sorry.

Oh.

Interesting mechanics nonetheless.

Also, does anyone have any idea how Guardian's Favor works? Two times I've gotten to play now I've always gotten a "you can assess your guardian's favor next time in 10 hours X minutes" message so I've no idea how that's supposed to work.

You have to reexamine the Aetherite after starting a leve, you then get the option.

So is there a test tonight? if so when / do you think they will post some patch notes?

**GameDragon** · 2010-07-20 08:23

It's definitely tonight. Last test they posted the update notes just before the test started.

That's where the controller/power supply is supposed to plug in. Sounds like you don't have it/lost it.

Where can I find one?

1. Learn basic problem solving skills
2. Look at the bottom of your chair/somewhere for a tag or identification number, manufacturer, customer service phone number
3. ???????
4. Profit

edit: and to reiterate you probably need not just the controller, but a plug that goes into a power outlet as well, which may be part of the controller itself.

**mintyice** · 2010-07-20 08:50

Finally bought a controller.

All those stickers were removed and the chair says nothing. Link me to where I can find a controller to make my chair vibrate!

You should have been registered for site access by the 13th as the e-mail said. So i wouldn't wait, I'd contact SE support center.

I have the same problem, exact same email and issue of not being able to login even though I’m already registered! It’s soooo frustrating because all we get it’s the one email, no customer support number and a 40 letter max character limit to report a problem. How can you explain your problem with 40 characters!? That’s not even one sentence.

Well, I did contact them via their busted 40 character site (twice now) and have not heard back.

Not a good sign for customer support……

**Sinzfeldt** · 2010-07-20 09:43

Boo fucking hoo wait like everyone else, god some of you sound so self-entitled.

There's no customer support for FFXIV Beta. You just have to wait for them to activate it, especially since they ended the testing early last time chances are it will be activated for today's test. They also added so many people recently it's bound to happen they miss a few.

Nah, seems more like anxious to play (not test) a beta.

**kyosak** · 2010-07-20 09:55

^

Same thing happened to me. I got the acceptance e-mail, waited 'til the day, still no activation. Sent e-mails to SE, bitched on the phone, etc. they were absolutely no help.

I ended up applying for the beta again and getting accepted again (account worked this time)... But yeah, if something's wrong with your beta account, you are screwed for now.

Try the online chat. They may not solve your problem but at least you'll talk to someone.

Support Center -> Get Support -> Choose Category and click Next -> Next Again -> Proceed to Chat Support.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. ::sad banana::

This is something that the answer may not be known for yet, but to get the Asuran Armguards, does FFXIII have to be registered to YOUR square-enix account, or can the code that you get when you register be used on another account?

For example, if we registered FFXIII to my wife's account, will that prevent me from taking the code you get and using it on mine?

I think the code is seperate from where the copy of FF13 is registered, so you should be ok to use it.

Although I'm not sure how you would go about doing that if you have already been accepted to the beta.

**mintyice** · 2010-07-20 10:23

I'm pretty sure it's as long as you have the code.
