                No email would be send out for this beta, Only alpha are invite. At least for now from a interview with SE seem more invite would be send out with beta2 which become a 24hour beta testing. 
 
If beta invite was going to be send out wont be this week and only few would be added at best.

                I played for a while the other night, and I'm not a fan.  Maybe the actual release will be better, but I won't be buying it so I guess I will never know.

It's much more pleasing on the eyes than FFXI, but I just didn't enjoy the interface. This is exactly the reason the NDA exists btw, so that people don't judge a game based on peoples opinions of an early beta version.  Anyone that's actually in the beta should also know that even at this stage, nothing is final, and not judge too harshly.

                Odd they are sending invites out now, considering the first Beta test has already happened... Maybe they are actually adding more people with each window to the point where it will be a *** to log on and stay logged on.

                Have to make sure the game can function with many people on it at once, yo.

                Well to be fair, I wasn't really planning to play it anyway.  I gave it a try in hopes that maybe it would sway me, but it did not. 
 
NDAs are jokes.  Any company that expects a mass player base of testers to not say anything is naive at best.  Also anyone who bases their purchase of the game on my opinion is equally as naive. 
 
I will say this though.  I enjoy character customization as much as the next guy.  It however should not take 30 minutes to make a character.  There comes a point when enough is enough, and if the actual game includes even more customization than the beta; you guys will have a great time spending an hour creating a character. 
 
I believe lag might have played a role in my dislike as well.  The battle interface was pissing me off, but I think it was due to the huge amount of lag with all the people all over the starter area.                                     
                
             
                        
         
             
    
    
        
        Did they go out yet. If not any idea on when they will?
