Hooray. Can't wait for July.
In my experiences with MMO betas (or betas in general) generally nothing is carried over from beta to release. You might get a cosmetic item or token for participating in the beta though.I have never played a beta for a MMO like game and was wanting to know if anything like loot and the characters we create carry over. I'm sure that the characters we create probably will, but will anything we collect be saved for the official release?
Uhhh did the beta codes already go out for those that pre ordered?
I never got mind from Amazon and assumed we would closer to the date.

Where do you live? If you're in the US you should already have it.
Is the July date for every system or just for the PS4? I know it's supposed to get it earlier.
You'll likely get some trophy gear to show off your beta tester, or even "beta endgame" status on a new Guardian for whichever platform come day one, but I know that's not really what you're asking.I have never played a beta for a MMO like game and was wanting to know if anything like loot and the characters we create carry over.

For clarification purposes.
I submitted my code through bungie's website. And my redeemed codes page says as much, however, am I to expect a second email from Bungie where it asks me which platform I want to Beta test on?
I want to make sure I didn't miss an email in my junk settings or if I missed a step.
Odd, maybe hit up Amazon support?
Sooooo not a beta then. Expected, I just wish they wouldnt call it a beta. Just call it a trial/demo, not much is going to change from beta to final release which will be a month from "beta" and likely already gold.
Beta just implies unfinished and gives people a false impression that the final game will be significantly more finished, which is rarely the case when they are so close.
Wonder how long Playstation exclusive beta lasts, I reckon mid July for PS, late July/early august on Xbox.
How do you get into the beta?
Beta to me means trial and expect crashes server side or even client side. Beta just is a blanket term for a volume trial especially for an online game.
Yep no way I'll have an Xbone or PS4 by then
Dream is dead
you can still do the beta on 360/ps3
Sold my 360. x_x
Tracking preorders when so many people have already cancelled it? How does that work? I guess you could say the stats will show interest...
I'm ready, I bought a PS4 last week and I have 2 beta codes restered.
You pre-oreder the game and get a code. You can even get one from pre-oredering from Amazon without paying anything.
Reaallllllllyyy? So you can pre-order it and then cancel when getting the code? You got yours already from amazon?
To be fair, there were quite a few weapon tweaks between the halo 3 and Reach betas and launch. I think the networking seemed better at release for both as well.A beta? No.
Try marketing demo / standard industry practice PR stunt.
Making folks think they are helping improve the game and test it before release with these things is just a joke, really.
