Well? That little add thing is pestering me and just now looking it, it seems to be asking for a decent amount of things including some pretty ludicrous things (That "do you play to make players upset" thing).

So is it worth doing guise?

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

Can't hurt. I think they're more interested in the statistics than actually wanting to qualitatively pick their testers based on whether they troll in games or not.

I did mine, didn't take very long. Never heard any news of it ever again, as well as a lot of other people.

I bet we will hear more about Beta Testing in 2013.

Just because you don't hear anything doesn't mean people aren't being taking in for beta testing.

Bungie gets them to sign a NDA so nothing will get leaked.

You probably won't hear anything about it until after it has concluded, unless you are picked of course but I doubt everyone will get in, as Mythical Wolf mentioned there will be a NDA testers will have to agree to.

At this stage It'd probably still be in alpha that they're in right now. I'm no expert or anything but when people invite you for a beta they tell people it's going on so more people can sign up. If you take a look at other developers a beta stages happen after they've announced a product. Bungie hasn't announced their new game so beta isn't going on. If there was a beta it would be probably ready to ship in a few months

I've been around here longer than you think. I already know all of that. I perfectly knew that people are doing getting information back, DeeJ was supposed to be a tester, but became the new Urk.

You might as well throw your name in the hat. Even though the odds of you being chosen as a tester are probably worse than a million to one, it can't hurt you to try.

Read the circled bit. I doubt they are going to put something like that without meaning it. Not all of those hundreds of thousands can go to Bungie HQ.

There's a slight difference in the beta you're talking about.

A private beta will usual consist of a sample of people outside of the development team who will test the game and give feed back on bugs, playability, stability and all that jazz. They will still sign a N.D.A.

A public beta is [mostly] after a private beta (but not always) and when the game is almost completely finished. It is generally a test to see how online play copes with a larger number of players than could be privately tested. They don't usually have to sign an NDA. (Halo: REACH)

No all games have a private beta and not all games have a public beta. It depends on time constraints and resources.

Don't see why you wouldn't be able to get way with it.

What I'd like to know is if the surveys are attached to my account. If it keeps clearing does that mean that they are all independent forms? If I type in 4 different emails does that mean that 4 independent applications have been filled out....or is the most recent application my form?

The survey confuses me, I have done it before but when I go back to it its blank. Is that bad or what?

It's attached to your account, you won't increase your chances by filling it out multiple times.

That's supposed to happen. I guess it's just handier to reset the form. It still stores your last submission.
