[i][b][EDIT]
Please stop asking me what will be in the BETA, when it's coming out, can you customize your spartan; I don't know, I do NOT work at Bungie, contrary to the belief of most people who read this.
Anyway, carry on.[/i][/b]
>Alright, I'm tired of seeing a new article every minute of, "Why didn't I get the BETA, I pre-ordered it!"
Here's what you should know:
+ [b]You get an invitation to the BETA for buying the game, NOT pre-ordering.[/b]
+ You will be able to download the BETA in the Spring of next year.
+ And the BETA will be downloadable from the Extras menu in ODST.
[EDIT]
+ Also, there is NO confirmed release date. Just sometime in the Spring.
>> Now please, stop posting stupid threads. There is something called GOOGLE you know.
>>>[EDIT]<<<
Since a few questions keep popping up, I thought I'd answer them.
+ The BETA has NO confirmed release date.
+ The game is an FPS.
+ There has not been any talk of how long the BETA will last. However, if it's like the Halo 3 BETA, expect it to last about 2-3 weeks.
+ 'New Intel' Is the extras menu.
[EDIT]
The Reach BETA is supposed to be Multiplayer only, no campaign.
>>>[EDIT]<<<
>>> In response to the growing number of questions regarding being able to play the BETA if you're a minor or w/ a minor account, I'm not sure, however, if you can play ODST in the first place, I'm assuming you can play the BETA.
>>>[EDIT]<<<
According to a couple messages I received, yes, you can access the BETA from a child account.
[EDIT]
Stickied, hooray!

"Buy Halo 3: ODST and receive an invitation to participate in the Halo: Reach Xbox LIVE multiplayer beta. If you want in, hold onto your copy of Halo 3: ODST and stay tuned to Bungie.net and Xbox.com for more details."
The Halo: Reach Xbox LIVE Multiplayer beta will be accessible via the Halo 3: ODST disc, you'll need an active Xbox LIVE Gold subscription to participate, and there are no dates or details just yet.
As soon as we have them, we'll clue you in. Until then, sit tight and hold onto your discs.
You do NOT need to have pre-ordered your copy. In fact, you could buy your disc the day the beta goes live and still get in.

I HAVE BEEN HEARING RUMORS SUCH AS BUNGIE WILL SHUT DOWN AFTER THIS GAME IM CLOSE TO BEING ABLE TO WORK THERE PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS NOT TRUE
-
Cool,I can't wait dude.
-
OK is the old halo 3 beta bug going to be fixed in reach. i remember that the halo 3 beta wasn't veiwable to people that were singed in during it's release. in short will we need to sign out and sign back in to see the new intel from the odst disc.
-

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BENkrazEE Alot of u people r on drugs right?[/quote] what makes you jump to that conclusion? only type of person who would automatically come to that would be a drug user themselves
-
Thanks for the update
-
A few things. 1:Will it cost micrsoft points? 2:Can it be downloaded by a childs account. 3:You still get it even though you pre-orderd it, right? 0_o
-
does a 48 hour trial work?
-
I hope they show off a Halo 2-like level system. Where 50 is for the best players only. Possibly exploit free as well so kids who make other accounts won't get any further than on their main. A reason to keep your main account for the game really.
-
For the record, Beta comes out April 2010
-
thx for the info man and i think alot of people need to read this.
-
So I could Rent the game from a store and still play the beta right? Sorry if asked before.
-
dude BUNGIE FUKIN/ ROCKS

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Eagleznest Does anyone know if you can still play the beta on local after the beta ends.[/quote] probably not, because some people wouldn't buy full game, they would stay with bete.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] spartan_66 the new update says things like S-352 and so on, that means that the Spartans are Spartan III's? because the Spartan II service numbers didnt go that high where are the Spartan II's? How are the Spartan III's on Reach when they havent been made yet? [/quote] thank you i was thinking the same thing when i realized they were IIIs but wasnt sure what the time line so i checked the halo encyclopedia 2537 Operation Prometheus Alpha Company no survivors 2545 Operation Torpedo Beta Company 2 survivors 2552 Activation of Zone 67 Gamma Company 330 Spartans most deployed else where in the war when Onyx is activated 2552 The fall of reach [Edited on 01.26.2010 4:31 PM PST]

nice thread but personally not too bothered about the beta will be checking it out though, was just wondering why halo3 and odst are both coming up with a message saying the beta is now available when it clearly isnt
-
is there any way you can get the BETA if you do not own ODST?
