fair enough (Destiny)
I'm not sure as it makes that much difference. We're still talking about a yet-to-be-finalised MMO product, where mechanics are new.
Maybe Bungie is planning on this level of participation once the beta is underway, but the tone of comments I've seen thus far has been a little too evasive. If they're not planning it yet, the purpose of highlighting it here is valid: I want to see them engage with the community in more ways than just storyline hinting through ARGs etc.
Maybe, Bungie definitely values the mystery they're packing into Destiny. There are plenty of things that they're iterating on/designing that require hands on experience to judge/comment on. Learning the rate of fire for the Thunderlord without having played the game would be a bizarre vacuum to process that information.
I imagine the Beta will be a massive engagement with the community. I also don't perceive Bungie's tone as evasive, just controlled.
