OPEN BETA (READ)

  • Hello there pirates! , would you guys like an “open beta” for this game since a lot of people didn’t get the chance or were to late to play the closed one.

    Let’s upvote this post and hope it happens!

    Do you guys agree?
    let me know your thoughts in the comment section!

    See you in the seas!
    Arghh

  • @yellowyscroll10 Yes open beta!
    why? i was only able to play it for 2 day, i had to figure it out how to play if i preordere already (xbox).

  • @yellowyscroll10 My hype got downhill after the whole aggressive PVP, i wont even pre-order, this whole toxic pirates mess is the less thing i want to spend money.

  • @yellowyscroll10 An Open beta would be Great!
    It would give more people a chance to play and would mean you can get four of your friends on rather than the lucky 1 or 2 that got the closed beta

  • @thurss21 it is normal its a pirate game. if theres no pvp it would make the game lame as [Mod edited]

  • I spent a good amount of time (55 hours 3 minutes) with the Closed Beta, therefore it may be swaying my decision. I hope they don't do an Open Beta for the simple fact that we're so close to launch. I'd rather the developers focus on getting everything right for launch than deal with the stress of another Beta. Sure, some didn't get to play, but that only makes you want it that much more! If the price seems too steep for the risk of purchasing, there's always the Xbox Game Pass option!

    I'm with you on that

  • @thurss21 I think the main reason for the "extra" PVP was because there was such limited content during the closed beta. I hit max rank with the gold hoarders on just my second day playing. After that, I went on adventures with my crew and helped new players along the way. I honestly believe that launch will be different, as there will be more adventures to go on with your crew and less incentive to "kill on sight", though it is an online game with PVP, so you definitely won't escape it.

  • Down vote on the open beta it makes the beta less special if you didnt get to play the beta that was likely your choice to either not make the time or not preorder. You could always cancel your preorder if you like after the beta was finished. As others said above please developers just focus on the game and not another beta. There is so much good information in the posts on the forum that could be potential add-ons to the game to make it all that much better and a beta is not one of those things after you already did one that was almost a week long.

  • nah dont neey an open beta some ppl had the chance now to test the game and there are plenty videos on Yt and its only 6 freaking weeks :)

    but i would apreciate an Stress test :)

  • @reptilsx Hey! , yea some people didnt get to spend alot of time on it since alot of people came to late! :/ , so let's hope for an open beta!

  • @thurss21 Hey! , well let's hope for an open beta and maybe things change , who knows? :p

  • @ghostlyskilow Hey! , yea i know , it would be great if everyone got an chance to try it out like! :) , and you can play with your mates since it's open beta! :d , I havent even tried it out yet since i didnt get the chance to play closed beta :/

  • The more open beta and stress testing they do, the less developing and bug fixing/polish they can apply before release.

    I say give them as much time as possible to get launch ready.

  • @reptilsx yea pvp is a great way of making the game even more fun , but you know whats better? , pve & pvp at the same time :d

    Sorry to hear that arrrrrrggg

  • @shadowstrider-7 i mean yea it's a good point im with you on that one! :) , but it would still be great if they had an 1-2 day open beta for the people that never got the chance of trying it out :) ,

  • Oh please give us an open beta!!!! I really want the opportunity to try this game early on!

  • @yellowyscroll10 I get where you're coming from, but March is just around the corner. With Sea Of Thieves being added to Game Pass, there's no reason everyone can't afford it.

  • @divinecow75693 Yea i hope for an open beta! , i never got an chance of playing the game since i heard about it to late :/ , but i'd love to try this beatiful game out and see what it feels like! :)

  • I upvote due to my cronic withdrawal from the game.

  • @shadowstrider-7 Yea indeed it's just around the corner thankfully :p , but still would be great oppurtuinty for some people that dont have much money and dont know if they're willing to spend $59.99 for a game they never tried out :), that's just an example :p etc etc

  • @tyronius-89 hehe! :p

  • @yellowyscroll10 That's why I suggested Game Pass. It's 10 USD per month and includes over 170 titles. That's a great alternative to buying the game for 60 USD.

  • @shadowstrider-7 ah yea , didnt know what a game pass was until now when you told me mate :p , but aye that's a great thingy :)

  • don't want to say much cause every time i see pioneer posts trying to be empathetic i just feel salty

  • @bobbo1771 haha alrighty xd

  • Oh please give us an open beta!!!

    Yeah but that would also make the "reward" of getting closed beta access for pre-orders pretty irrelevant and cheapen the "inclusive" feeling. You're asking to play an open-beta because you pretty much aren't committed to purchase or don't have the money to do so. To me, that's not a good enough reason. You didn't get into the insider program under the cut off date, you didn't pre-order. That's little investment if any into Rare's program and development. I doubt they'll oblige your request.

    But hey, wait for the third week of March, watch it streamed on twitch, or youtube and make you decision then!

  • @face-0-o i mean i already know i want it , and i didnt know closed beta was for the people that only pre ordered lol

  • Ya I feel like an open beta would be great, not only because a lot of people didn't get the chance to play the closed, but also because it would help prepare for launch.

  • Yes.

  • @thisisdiree may I ask why you think this? If anything, all another Beta would do is draw resources away from time that could be better spent finishing and polishing the game before launch day.

  • open, closed, half open, sideways, i'm up for all :P
    edit: I'd actually rather have them just open the servers with a disclaimer "we're working on the game so don't expect anything from us but do whatever you want meanwhile"
