Yes! I just got chosen for the FFXI beta test! This is the first time I've actually ever been accepted into one of these things (if you don't count the time my friend and I signed up for Everquest Online Adventures as a joke and got selected...) so I'm pretty stoked.
I know most people here probably could care less about this game, but I've been following it for years so it's very exciting. *knocks on wood as to not jinx this so the package is sent to my address without being lost/damaged/stolen etc*

This doesn't sound that good in english -geeh, it doesn't sound nice on any language- so I'll put it on Spanish "Recuerda que pisar mierda trae buena suerte! "

PS2. My PC would never run it half decent.

Sure, I'll post anything I can. The letter was just basically, "Congrats, we'll send it to your address, be sure to mail it back when this is over" so I'm not sure if there are any real restrictions. I wouldn't think there are considering that it's been out in Japan for a year and when that was in beta there were plenty of legitamate sources giving out information and Square seemed to encourage it.
I'm pretty interested in the bard, but that's a high level job, so I'll probably start with a white mage or a fighter. Racewise I think the Mithras and Humans are pretty cool. I don't like the other ones as much.
I'm pretty sure that they are getting people as needed since some people got their acceptance letters a month ago. It'd be cool if you got in too.

I think it's cool. Hey, it's a free game and Square seems to have ironed out all the problems with it now. I would have signed up, but I don't have a fast internet connection at home.

Congratulations! Nice to see a MMCafe member selected to a beta-test. Means all sorts of nice juice newsposts...
Well, if you wanna do them...:) *begs and pleads*
But yeah, I'm looking forward to the game and I'm intrested to see how it's coming will shape the MMORPG world and play out for the PS2 crowd. The US user base for FF doesn't cross alot into the online field so it'll be intresting to see how it goes...
But it is the game with the best character designs. 4-5 years into it and EQ still can't design in game characters that don't look like bad PSX characters...

Yeah. For what I've heard, FFXI is like Everquest, online with more to do, better polish, and more emphasis on missions. It seems pretty cool and if the game actually gets here (I'm almost convinced that the thing will reach it's untimely demise before it makes its way though the postal service) I'll be sure to tell if it's any good or not.

No email for me, so hopefully I can be part of the cattle when they do heavy stress tests.
