While Halo 3 and Halo: Reach received highly publicized, highly poulated beta tests, Microsoft and 343 Industries has revealed that there will be no beta test for the upcoming sequel, Halo 4. The recent trailer and press-preview ahead of GDC has certainly whet the apetites of many Xbox 360 gamers, but they'll have to wait until the game's release to play a few rounds of multiplayer.
While we're testing Halo 4 code, gameplay, and systems at significant scale to get excellent data, input, and feedback, we are focused on polishing and shipping our experience for the duration of the year, and splitting resources to manage and build a beta is not on our schedule.
What?! How could you?! I AM SO MAD AND I'M TOTALLY ENTITLED TO A HALO BETA!! FFFFFFF.
There you go fanboys, I've taken care of your reaction for you. Please use the comments for more purposeful and constructive talk, like exactly how ugly Master Chief is under that helmet….
