Operating ProcedureSchedule:Tuesday, August 31, 2010 at 19:00 (PDT)
*The Open Beta Test will be online continuously for 24 hours a day.*Maintenance and any other announcements will be posted accordingly.
*Information on testing dates and times will also be posted on the official FINAL FANTASY XIV Twitter feed.http://twitter.com/FF_XIV_JPhttp://twitter.com/FF_XIV_ENhttp://twitter.com/FF_XIV_DEhttp://twitter.com/FF_XIV_FR
Log-in CapacityDuring
the initial stages of the beta test, the number of players allowed to
be logged in at any given time will be limited, with capacity to
gradually increase as adjustments are performed on server load. Should
the maximum capacity already be reached when you attempt to log in, a
message will appear indicating that the world is currently congested,
and you will be asked to try again in a short while. At this time you
will be placed on a waiting list in the order of attempted log-in time.
To maintain your position on the waiting list, you must initiate the
log-in procedure again within ten minutes of your first attempt.
Feedback SubmissionWhile
playing, testers who have been asked to submit opinions on anything at
all regarding topics such as game balance issues, settings that you may
have found difficult to understand, and features that you felt were
inconvenient, unintuitive, or required further explanation are asked to
use the feedback hread, and for those testers who have been assigned the
task of reporting bugs are asked to use the bug report form.



Transferring Character Names to the Official Release
Players
will be able to transfer their character names from the FINAL FANTASY
XIV Open Beta Test to the official release. As long as the Worlds
selected in the open beta test and the official release are the same,
the character name used in the open beta test will be usable in the
official release.

If a different World is selected, the player will be unable to transfer
the character name, and possibly unable to create a new character with
that name.

Please note that only the character's name can be transferred. Other
data such as physical levels and items cannot be transferred.

*Upon the transfer of player character name, both selection of the world
and character name input need to be done properly. Please make sure to
remember both the world you belonged to and the name of the character
you used during the Open Beta Test.
*With the character name that has been determined to be improper by Square Enix, the transfer may not be done.
*After the open beta test has concluded, the character names still existing on the account will be transferrable.

Examples:

	World in the Open Beta Test	Character Name	World in the Official Release
Transferrable	AAA	Ccc_Ddd	AAA
Untransferrable	AAA	Ccc_Ddd	BBB

*Even
if a character name is untransferrable, as long as another player is
not using the name, Ccc_Ddd will be usable in World BBB.
