Why I am so excited that there is a beta in light of recent events.

Exhibit A.....Grand Theft Auto V, or at least Grand Theft Auto Online. I don't know how many of you are familiar with what is going on over there at Rockstar Games, but it's a mess to say the least. The last week, since launch of the online, has been a complete mess. Tons of people still can't play. I was lucky enough to have a few minor bugs and freezes, tons of server problems though. But I managed to play quite a bit with my friends. Today, I get on to see that the servers are, yet again, down. Not only that, but my character has disappeared. The way they have it set it is that it is all saved on the cloud servers. You don't have your own save on your console, which is a terrible idea. It leads to this. So no servers, no character. It's just such a mess. All my friends are having problems. The forums are going nuts. So, my point....I am so beyond happy that Bungie is beta testing this game. It more then deserves it. I hope more developers learn to open beta test. It makes for a better launch day and an all around better product. So stoked for this game.

  • In defence of Rockstar, I doubt Destiny will sell anywhere near the amount that GTA V sold so that will help with the servers. Rockstar had to deal with an unholy amount of traffic when they launched GTAO.
