Questions about the HALO: REACH BETA?
[url=http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BeAHero][b]Help us, help Haiti![/b][/url]
[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.

Yes, i know, but does anyone not have a "extras" menu and just a thing saying New intel 9/12 or something of those numbers, then it just takes you to download the vidoc? Just wondering.

-never mind-* [Edited on 02.02.2010 7:39 PM PST]

by what i have heard the beta comes out on the start of spring. people have told me "like halo 3 beta release came out on the start of spring: halo: Reach will do the same." Witch is not good for me because i don't have xbox live gold any more. :(
-
I'm not sure if this question has been asked before, but is there any confirmation that the beta will be released [b]during[/b], or [b]at the start of[/b] spring?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Pieman191 Before the beta is released, could I rent ODST from blockbuster and play the beta from that?[/quote] Yup.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] charred Will the beta support split screen XBL? Like, if I wanted to play the beta with a friend on the same xbox, would that work?[/quote]
-
@ :) Yes
-
THANKYOU!
-
So anyone any age can play
-
@ :) No.
-
wait do we still need to be 18 or 17 to download it or what
-
Why if they tried to release it the 23rd, don't they try again?
-
Question: An member of the forum ho has been with bungie forums for a long time said that there will be a campaign section in the beta and that this was confirmed by bungie. Sources here though, are saying otherwise. Any truth to this at all?
-
Finnaly! And good -blam-ing ridance. I hope he never comes back. Don't people like that make you sick? [Edited on 01.31.2010 3:53 PM PST]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] darran311 [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[/quote] Just thought that if you read the thread everything is answered in the first group of pages. "Do I need ODST? Did I have to preorder?" I wonder if it could be that easy though? What if the real catch is the Recon Armor... makes sense as to why URK keeps posting HBO friday night Firefight on the front page! I realize Bungie supports them (HBO) and what the community has by way of fanfare. No I dont do drugs the only people bothered by that are the ones who took it seriously and the ones who do :)

I can't believe some people are asking these stupid questions. I knew all of those things months ago.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Infinite Outcast III Eureka III, just leave him alone. he's obviously not gonna go away. Though I wish he would. -blam-ing Bastard. P.S. I thought you were doing something great by helping out these people. I wish bungie would ban jackasses like this.[/quote] If you read further I actually destroyed his argument, he gave up.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] III Eureka III [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] LeGenD HaZ iiTx anyone that has halo 3 has a bungie account if their not dumb. How else can you search ranks. Dont try to draw attention away from the fact that not only are you -blam!- with bungie that you feel the need to post threads about -blam!-, and the fact that even worse, nerds look up to you for it. but also that your straight monitoring your own thread, i just posted that and your already on my trail. Do you ever sleep. Damn[/quote] Such a douche. Apparently, I'm such a horrible person, because I'm trying to help people. Seriously, if you're going to hate people for being nice, and the fact that they want to know when something is coming out, when you yourself clicked on this thread, you really need to work on your arguments. The fact that people look up to me because I took the time to post all I know about something they want to know about, is completely their opinion, I didn't make this thread so people like you could be -blam!-s, I made to help people who don't know about the BETA, and if you want to be a dick about, that's fine by me. Insult me all you want, I don't care, but leave everyone else out of it, all they wanted to do was find out some info about the BETA not have -blam!-s like you hate them for it.

Look I don't know why your on this site if you hate video games so much. I mean, so what if we play halo? why do you care so much? You must have so much time on your hands to come try and pick on us so called nerds. All I'm saying is, if you don't have anything nice to say, just shut the -blam- up! P.S. Were gamers not isomniacs dumbass!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CyberGladiator I don't know where my invitation is that came with the game. Do I need that to participate in the beta?[/quote] that is in the extras part of the screen at the start up menu. Probably didn't lose it...
-
Release it please! lol
-
Anything on whether or not the beta will have split screen? Seriously, like four people asking and no answer, not even someone mentioning if it's unknown.
