A thought about Beta carryover... (Destiny)
SO - I am 99% sure that we won't get to carry any characters over to the full game. And honestly, I wouldn't want to. But, what if we could keep our inventory items or anything we put in the vault? I mean, that makes sense, right? Plus what is the point of the Iron Banner rewards (like the Level 20 pistol) if we could never use them in the Beta?
It wouldn't break the full game, but would be a huge perk for Beta players. None of the gear is all that great, but could both lessen the grind and be a fond memory of our Beta time.
What do you think?

I've been looking at pretty much all the gear we collect as teaser previews of things to expect in the full release this fall. I wouldn't mind carrying gear over into September, but I wouldn't mind starting out from scratch again, either.

This was my thinking too, plus it's a beta, it might not be fair both because of time and availability but also because of things that are broken or unbalanced, and because it's a beta this gear may not exist, or more likely not exist in the forms it takes, in the final game, which could break things.

Quite honestly, I don't mind either way. It only took me one night to get to level 8 and most of the Crucible rewards I've earned can be easily re-earned. It's not a big deal to me if my character doesn't carry over.

I'll definitely be going with a scratch-build for release so it's no concern to me if there's carry over or not.
