More ways to get into Resistance beta than Qore, Europe not excluded

by Andrew Yoon { Jul 24th 2008 at 2:55PM }

Yes, it's true that Qore will give you access to the upcoming Resistance 2 beta. However, that's not the only way in, according to a recent post by Insomniac's James Stevenson. According to Stevenson, "the best way which will give you the earliest access to the beta will involve a pre-order program that should be announced soon." From the sounds of it, it will be similar to the Metal Gear Online beta test, where users were able to get in if they pre-ordered the game at GameStop.

The beta will expand to "all territories" as well. Obviously, the point of a beta is to check the stability of the network worldwide. Further details on how European fans can get into the beta will be released later.

[Thanks, Jay!]

I am SO pre-ordering now. Despite the fact that I don't need to cause no one has a PS3 where I live.

I've had R2 on pre-order for months. Cannot wait for this game!!

Dr. Strangepork @ Jul 24th 2008 3:57PM

I can't wait for this game either. The beta on the other hand, I'll pass. These early betas seemed to get borked up somehow anyway.

They'll be plenty to play before this comes out.

Well it could be like the MGO beta where nothing changes in the final game.

I normally don't preorder games simply because one of the seven stores in walking distance of each other are BOUND to have the game I'm looking for, but I'm DEFINITELY preordering R2 just for the beta. The first had a VERY addicting mutliplayer, and I'm only expecting more this time around.

Gambit07 @ Jul 24th 2008 4:17PM

You didn't need to pre order MGO from Gamestop to get in the beta, I pre ordered from Best Buy.

Dwag @ Jul 24th 2008 4:36PM

When does this come out(date)? So far all I'm hearing is fall 08.

Dwag @ Jul 24th 2008 4:42PM

And november 4 but I don't truely believe that.

Riley Freeman @ Jul 24th 2008 5:46PM

that sucks. honestly i dont preorder games. i have to wait for them to get delivered when i can just go into a store and grab it. i had no trouble finding gta, mg4 i dont see any me having any trouble finding resistance 2. the best way should be qore because its the easiest and simplest. making it the preorder way sucks as the best way because not everyone wants to wai an extra day or 2 for it to get delivered.

and for anyone that says it gets delivered same day maybe where u are but not where i am and those things are hit and miss
