Tom Clancy's End War Beta

What's the point of a console only beta? Doesn't beta imply, you know, extensive testing by many competent people?
 
Not really, for the past few years betas are more of PR stunts rather than serious testing platforms.
 
Yeah but WiC, like everything made in Sweden, kicked ass.:)
 
I thought MMOs were the only genre that took betas somewhat seriously (and sometimes not even then, if the finished product is any indication). Otherwise it's pretty much just "here's a free trial, but don't tell anyone, k?"
 
I signed up, looks like a interesting game.
 
I am so tired and out of it that I read this thread title as 'Tom Clancy wears pants'
 
Yeah console beta's have mainly been demos of the game as of late. I signed up anyways...I always like playing games before most other people.
 
What a stupid fucking gimmick. :|

Not just a gimmick, but a gimmick that impairs gameplay. Wow.
 
Well the beta's are a lot of times used as PR events, but they still get lots of good info out of them.

Here's some questions I guarantee that this beta will answer for the team.

1) Are there any glaring exploits we haven't caught internally?
2) How does the netcode hold up under real-world conditions, and how can we improve it further? (they'll definitely be gathering data on this because this is probably the biggest thing they are looking at)
3) How is our voice control working, and what needs to be tweaked?
 
Anyone get contacted yet? It said they would reply within a few days, never got anything from them.
 
Im not signing up for the beta , but i will get the end product , but only because it has Tom Clancy's name slapped on it. /sarcasm. But seriously though i will get it.
 
No seriously, he is.

1. He's a republican

2. He's a homophobe

3. He's a homophobic republican
 
No I'm not american, and by my countries standards, even the democrats are centre-right, I'm left-wing.
 
Got an email today saying I was selected. So those of you that signed up should be getting something If your picked. Beta starts the 16th.
