ok isnt the whole point of a beta is to see if you want to buy the game or not? How come we have to pre-order to get to play the beta thats kinda dumb. Anyone agrees?

That's the point of a demo. A beta is for usability testing.

Umm, no. It's to test out the servers and gameplay, as well as quality control.

No. The only reason betas exist are to test out the servers and find bugs and glitches so they are fixed in the final release.

I'm not even going to think about bothering with that game if DICE and EA can't even fix BFBC2's online a good 3 months after launch.

Yeah the point of a beta is to test out the games servers, and see if there are any bugs to fix. You're obviously thinking of a demo.

A beta is meant to give a taste to gamers and test the game itself. What better than a bunch of ravenous gamers exploiting it before it gets fixed? Look at the Halo: Reach beta. They acknowledged that it was meant to give players a taste of the action AND test the game.

It's a beta. Not the demo.

Bad Company 2 had you getting a code to get into the beta which I liked, I don't like the idea of preordering a game.

Pre-order then cancel.

They can't force you to keep the pre-order because what if you don't like the game?
