Hi guys, I've been wanting to play this game for quite a while after seeing the trailer =D. Any idea where I can get a beta access and where can I buy the game from? I've seen the website but it does not offer in Malaysia. Which region should I choose from?

For getting the beta code (not sure whether it's still available), can look at page 10 onwards. but i'll just copy my post here.
I'll just do a simple guide ( hope my memory of the steps is correct.)
1. Goto https://www.facebook.com/PlayStation.DE/app_184026455096557 thanks to shojikun for the link
2. "like" it
3. the page with the app will refresh, and click on the blue button will show u a beta code for pc, and a ps3 promo code to download the client in ps3(if it didnt show, refresh the page, and click on the blue button again.)
4. write down the code somewhere, click the link given at the bottom inside the app will bring you to the steps for activating the beta code.
5. brings you to a website in foreign language with 2 links, click the 1st link.
6. a new page with another 2 link, click top link. a light blue rectangle button.
7. bring you to the SE account page. click on creating a new account (if you do not possess an EU account), or login(if you have an EU account)
8. now it's pretty straight forward, put in email, id name, pass etc. address just simply a fake will do. *remember to select UK/united kingdom. then select british language or watever, can't remember bout this clearly. else your SE account manage page will kept showing the german language orz... had a hard time myself trying to change everything back to english*
9. go to the email you registered with the account, in your email, confirm the activation.
10. opens up a new page, key in the beta code you written down earlier.
11. then will ask you to confirm it's activated by login to your SE account, select service > FF14 > options > see whether beta ARR is enabled.

in step 5, the 2nd link is the beta forum link. click that link, inside the beta forum, look for "Getting Started" thread, then "Test Client Download", and look inside the "Windows" post
That's it, I hope my memory serves me right. Been doing that for 3 friends earlier. Hope will help those having trouble

As for buying the game, look at page one. If none of them make sense to you, hopefully your area has a dedicated game shop since usually they will sell it after release on 27th Aug 2013 or you can order from them. With FF11 (the older mmo version) and this coming FF14 ARR, they never listed SEA country, players from these places always have to fake an address. Concerning Region to choose from, gawd, why can't people spend some time reading the threads, I really pity shojikun always having to repeat the info everytime a noobie come in and ask it. In short, the region doesn't matter, since no matter where you choose, we all play together, region is for the billing currency, and *maybe* getting the same region expansion version in the near future.

Edit: Just a small story concerning faking the address. During when the security token came out, I had to get it, because registering the token with my account will let me have extra inventory space on FF11. I really gambled on US10 to order the thing since there was no app yet at that time. I was using NA account. The address with my account was something like Country: USA, States: California, Poscode 9999-99999, City: *some city in california. These 4 entries I couldn't change since it's selected from drop-down box. However, for the street address, I just filled it with my real home address, the whole address ending in Malaysia. Now a miracle really happened! I got the token after 2months. The token was sent to the Philipines, then to Indonesia, then to singapore, then to my doorsteps LOL. I can see it from all the chop-marks on the box(which was very very crumbled up when I got it).

guys, to pay the monthly fees, do you have to register your CC to your SE account?

Yup, or use MOL to buy crysta and pay. Using CC is much easier though.

you can use CC or Debit

what kind of problem? anyone tried using cimb debit card before?

someone just PM me about it xD so not sure why CIMB having problem.. hmmmm. though last time someone say using CIMB can.. sigh.. so far looks like only Maybank Debit Card Visa can.

swt, this is bad.. i thought cimb would work since alot of people said it would.. hm, what can i do now?

u register under UK right? if yes, then use Add Crysta Option and pay using UltimatePay via Paypal

You can't use the 25% discount on Digital CE i believed?

Clearly written out of stock. Guess i'm gonna miss the discount.

Hope they will refill CE stock soon
