THE GAME GETS RELEASED IN 5 MONTHS AND THERE HASENT EVEN BEEN A RELEASE DATE FOR THE BETA OR EVEN IF THERE IS GONIG TO BE ONE THERES NO INFORMATION ABOUT THIS ANYWERE CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT
It’s been said over and again that there won’t be a beta so I am curious as to where you are getting your “they haven’t even said if there will be one!” information?
> there releasing the game this fall they have plenty of time to release one
More preparation goes into a public beta than you realize… And 343i stated that instead of taking the time away to prepare and launch a beta, they are instead going to have an internal beta and focus on working on the game.
They dident say that there wouldnt be one they just said not right now so im guessing there will be one so saying that there wont be one is saying for the next 5 months until release there wont be one but thats false because theyve had betas before with bungie
“We plan to test both gameplay and code features rigorously and at a meaningful scale throughout the course of 2012 to ensure a great experience at launch, but we have no plans for a public multiplayer beta for Halo 4.”
Halo 4 will have a beta you heard someone write on a website saying there wont be like 3 months ago but the game isent even going to be out until this fall

Yes, they did.
They announced months ago that there would not be a public beta due to them not wanting to waste resources. There IS a beta it is just a private one where you have to be invited to test it.
No there is not enough time to have a Beta because the point of one is to work out bad parts/glitches in the game. For them to prepare, release, gather data, and fix for a public Beta takes longer than just 5 months. Yes there were public Betas but they were released (using reach’s as example) 7 months before the actual release of the game.
Also please punctuate your sentences and try not to run on, it really gets annoying to read a paragraph that is all one sentence.
Halo reach had a beta with bungie and 343 industries except in halo 4 they copied ordinace from activision so it wont make a difference between the months that they had each beta released 5 or 7 they will have one
