Great, looking forward to see what new and innovative they are bringing to us.

It's already started on the west coast, and I'll be looking forward to trying it in a couple of hours.

Open beta starting Sept 2nd and releasing on Sept 30th? Isn't that a bit short for a beta period?

 

[fatty21]

Woot, I love FF Series, Can't wait!

 

[biao39]

Love FF series, disappointed on 13. Hope for the best on 14.

 

[bpeglow]

I'm a bit worried if the open beta got postponed due to critical bugs only 3 weeks before release (CE). Hopefully we'll have a finished product at launch. I'm going to beta and already have my CE preordered. *fingers crossed*

So you're saying I DON'T need an i7-980x (amongst other things)?

 

[truehighroller]

Where's the link to the beta testing area?

 

[DaddyW123]

How were you disapointed on 13? I'm still playing it. I have to admit though that 10 was better. 10-2 sucked and 12 massively sucked. I still have to play 7 though. I hear it was the best. I also hear you can get it on Playstation Network on PS3 so I'm going to have to try that.

And I only have a gforce 8800 gts, but I am running at 3ghz Core 2 with 4gb ram so hopefully that will make up for the graphics card.

Makes me sad to see my card on the minimum requirements list 🙁

 

[proxy711]

At the rate the updater is going the game will be out before anyone can try the beta out....my upload speed shouldn't be ten times my download speed.

my card is not even on the minimum requirements list.

 

[mcvf]

The button to apply for beta is there!

 

[kriswitak]

Lol, the beta application site is getting POUNDED right now. Pages keep timing out. Hahah.

 

[merloin]

There wasn't much anticipation for the open beta at all was there...

 

[FITCamaro]

I was able to log in. Then it timed out. Still trying.

 

[Cy-Kill]

Funny thing is, and I am surprised that Tom's missed it...the OB has been delayed due to 'critical bugs'!

 

[FITCamaro]

Got my key

 

[NotYetRated]

YES bye bye memorial day weekend!!!

 

[merloin]

Personally, I'm not too concerned about these "critical bugs". In the company I work for, we have critical bugs as well but they're only labeled that way when there is no workaround available. The bug itself might be fairly normal but when you can't get around it, its considered critical so that a solution is found fast.

My own feeling is that its the similar for these recent critical bugs for Square-Enix.

 

[NotYetRated]

NNOOOOOO webpage for registration is stilll ddoowwnnnn 🙁 And Proxy711... At least you have a download speed. My ratio is infinite as I have only upload. 0 for download haha. Now if I could just get a key...

 

[eddieroolz]

Quite beefy requirements, I must say. Maybe I'll give it a shot.

 

[dEAne]

most of the hardware is find but my isp is a problem.
