Final Fantasy XIV Roundup: Japan Alpha Testers and Faction Tokens
Some assorted updates for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn:
The Lodestone has announced that notification emails have been sent out to accepted alpha testers in Japan, where the alpha testing will begin. It looks like the alpha is on track to commence at the end of this month, as promised, but only in Japan. For those players outside of Japan, there is no word yet on precisely when the alpha testing will start in your regions, but you can still apply to be an alpha tester by visiting the application site.
In response to player questions, a developer announced on the official forums that faction credits and guild leve allowance will be reset for A Realm Reborn (the link goes to an unofficial translation). If you currently have any faction credits, you should be sure to use them before the service shutdown next week! (I know, thanks for the heads up, SE, right?)
Speaking of the big shutdown, we’re just over one week away. It has been previously reported that the date of the full shutdown is November 1, 2012, but for NA players that turns out to be October 31 at 2 PM PDT. The servers will be coming back up later in November, but anything after that will not be saved for A Realm Reborn.
So why are you still here reading this? Hurry up and get back to playing!
