So weird. (Destiny)

Halo 5 beta is 3 weeks long. It's really messing with my brain that 343's doing all this cool stuff, and Bungie's doing all this shitty stuff. Glad that I'm not interested in Destiny, or I'd be pretty pissed off at this point.

Like adding terminals where they change the Halo story, you mean?

Nothing's changed. Just adds extra story bits. Way past cool if you ask me.

I suspect that Bungie's beta is for a different purpose than 343's beta. To elaborate: Bungie's beta is to give players a taste and to test the servers. I think it's a little late to make any substantive changes to the game based on this beta, but it certainly will be in three or four weeks time.

Bungie's game is all new. You would think they would want to test it.

From what I've read 343's beta seems more about finding out what people like in multiplayer. You need a lot of data for that.

Halo 4 was a beta. It sucked, and they already know that.

Bungie is testing PvP as well, AFAIK. With all the elements in play there, just seems to be worth more than 3 days of beta test.
