They said in the podcast that there is no mention of a Public Beta at this point, more than likely only a demo before the game is released. Good or bad in your opinion? I personally think they need to at least test the servers, but I would assume that MAG has done enough testing to get this right. On the bright side, it means they are farther along than their letting on as in regards to the MP portion of the game and they feel very, very comfortable with where they are at for a Fall / Holiday release.

lol yeah the public beta last time seemed more like a publicity stunt so we could see how bad it was and still needed another 4 months to be completed. i'm torn either way, i think having a beta would be both good and bad, no matter what people are going to complain on the forums about how its not socom2 and no zipper sucks because they don't listen...and omg...can you believe zipper - they introduced something new to the game! those bastards! we will see i guess

I'm cool beta or no beta, so long as the game works. Nothing worse then playing a live game for 8 months as a beta tester. Ok maybe not 8 months but it sure felt that long.
If it works right I'm cool with that for sure.

I think thanks to MAG they don't have to. The fine tuned the engine.

I don't care either way.
Here is why. No matter what, whatever bugs or issues people will have the game, they will never be fixed. Beta or no beta, if the game sucks, Zipper won't do anything about it.
And as far as a demo goes, you know they won't release a MP demo.

i don't care if there is a demo or not because i prolly wouldn't be in it anyways but i do think they should have a small one more because i don't think when they play the game they see the same exploits that the average gamer looks for.

my only reason in wanting a private beta would be to have players who will play COMPLETELY different than internal testers play out games in their style, because we know that it's not going to be all "softcore" slow paced tactics like Zipper imagines their game being played.
Even Confrontation, a game that was dramatically slowed down, was pushed to its limits, even with a private and public beta ( partly because of bad developing ).

I could care less about a public beta, but I want them to have a private beta just to get a second opinion about the game. Get no more than 100 players and have the beta last two weeks.

I don't care if we see a beta or not. There really isn't a reason to have a public beta since they probably have a good idea on how the servers will work due to MAG.

I may have said this before on the Socom.com Forums. I think there will be a public beta. But IMO wouldn't Sony want to test the Game with the Move, that to me is the biggest new feature that really needs to be tested on a large scale. I know, I know the game release date is right about the same time as the Move release date. I hope a public Beta is released.

Perhaps the Move and S4 will be released like a month or month and a half apart and people can preorder the Move before it comes out. If you preorder the Move you can par take in a S4 beta, be it MP or SP.

I would be fine with a demo, just don't put health regen on MP and I will pretty much buy the game, oh and side specific weapons with odd rounds.
I could care less about a cover system,
major props on them for not including blind fire.
If you ever played Rainbow Six Vegas 2 online, you know what I mean

Multiplayer shooters should always have a beta, its never a bad thing to have actual players playing the game
