I would say just keep waiting, I posted that picture literally minutes after getting the email. Other people got theirs earlier in the day, and others before that.

lol. Yeah I hope I wake up to one tomorrow or see it sometime tomorrow. I didn't participate in 1.0 and I didn't have a code with my copy of FFXIII so I get no special treatment. =l

I used my XIII code. But I am afraid I got one of the letters/numbers wrong. I fucking HATE when I get a code with a 0 that looks like a D that resembles an O. FUCK this shit. Really. It pisses me off.

So is this the beta where we can bring back our old characters?


Also, if we had the original game, we don't have to buy ARR, right?

Please do not let me serve on a jury. I am actually a crazy person.
Got a PC code off Eurogamer!
Downloading the client, but how the heck do i get in the beta forums?
I get sent to a login page, where my usual ID\psw doesn't work.

You will get to bring back old characters the the second part of this beta. You wont be able to this weekend. And no you don't have to buy it again if you have 1.0.

If you input an incorrect code, it doesn't invalidate the correct one. If you put a zero where it wanted an O, try the reverse and see if it takes the code.

Unless, in a crazy coincidence, your mistakenly-input code was also a valid one, but assigned to someone else. But I can't imagine SE mismanaging code formats like that.

Huh, I didnt know that. But anyway, would it really warn me if I had input the wrong code there?

They do seem to be going out at different times, I had mine early this morning (since about 7 hours ago) but people posting around the web have had them only show up in the past couple of hours.


I know it's a silly question, but did you check your spam folder?

Well went ahead and got the digital collectors edition, never played 1.0 and only tried phase 2 beta weekend but liked what I saw. From everything I have seen though the game looks like it's going to be a lot of fun. Any suggestions on whats a good starter newbie class?

It'll just say that the code is wrong. I first tried my code on the US store and that's what happened; then I tried it on the Japanese store and it worked fine.

Don't worry; it's not some kind of high-stakes thing where you get one chance to type the code in or it's lost forever. If you got an error message, just try again, this time choosing the other possibility for 0/O/D.

An Update on North American PlayStation 3 Version Beta Test Codes (06/13/2013)
During the final steps of the process to distribute the PlayStation 3 promotion codes that are used to access the PS3 version of the Beta Test, we encountered an issue that stopped us from delivering the codes properly. We were able to identify the problem quickly before delivering the promotion codes and are pleased to announce that we have corrected the issue and will be sending out the codes to users after this slight delay.

We sincerely apologize about the delay and appreciate your understanding in the matter.

I truly don't think there is, nor am I too sure since the classes and overall balance have changed a lot.
During Beta 1/2, Conjurer probably was the hardest / more frustrating class to play because it was interrupted a lot, but that's something they adjusted.
Out of all classes, Lancer seems to be one of the most straightforward and basic.
I say, play whatever you like the most, the game seems to have a good learning curve and is designed to not throw too much stuff at you at once.

Ultimately, there is a major emphasis on slowly introducing players to the depth of the classes, so you should really just start with what sounds the most fun.

Healers tend to be the most scrutinized, so you may want to stay away from that until you are more familiar with the party dynamics. Also, it is important to note that your class is driven by your weapon, so you can try them all and decide which you like the best :)

Just got my invite and I'm in the US.

Got my key registered but unfortunately whenever I click in the download link or try to visit the forums, it prompts me for my username/password and claims I'm inputting the wrong ID or password, which is strange because I could login to apply the beta key just fine. Could be because I just changed my password this morning...

Anyone have a download link? I'd love to get the ball rollin' on this download!
