$2.99 for an invite to the Open Beta for Confrontation

[xRuthlessRebelx]

On Thursday a digital magazine comes out on the psn store called Qore. For $2.99 you can buy it and it is included with an invitation to the Confrontation Open Beta.

 

"The first issue of Qore, which will be released this Thursday, comes packed with exclusive content for games such as SOCOM Confrontation (including an invitation to the beta), Secret Agent Clank and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Qore is available on the PlayStation Store for a one-off payment of $2.99 per issue, or for a yearly subscription fee of $24.99 for 13 issues. Check out the video above to see Qore in action. If you want more info, be sure to check out the PlayStation Blog post. We're looking forward to checking it out this Thursday."

By buying the mag, is this a GUARANTEED invite to the Beta testing, or just an entry into some sort of lottery or random pick? I haven't read the article, but the question popped into my head. It's hard to believe that they would/could potentially allow hundreds of thousands of salivating SOCOM addicts a guaranteed spot for beta testing.

Yeah, good point.

[TOW-19]

So I take it the article doesn't explain that fully?

[boody]

From what I understand its a guaranteed spot in the open Beta(it says it comes with an invitation). And the open beta is just to stress test the servers and stuff like that, while the closed beta which a lot of people here signed up for on the playstation forums, is to look for glitches and give feeback etc.

I haven't been able to find somewhere taking pre-orders. I went to Gamestop a couple of weeks ago, and they told me there isn't a hard date for SOCOM: Confrontation. Without a hard definite date, they can't take pre-oders. Unless something has changed that I don't know about.

They did that with MGS4. Which reminds me, I have to move that 5 bucks to something else.

[BX-ROBSTEALTH-NY]

this is probably going to be a limited thing where once they have reach their quota most likely the beta will be remove or something that effect--- same thing happen with MGS Online dude---

Qore is not a magazine from what i saw, its like a series of episodes which is 13eps per year.which covers new games and what not. but i could be wrong. lol

[Neoblackhound]

Nice i'm so gonna do this.

[[*N*]Sal0713]

ok i got some new info on this thing, i was reading the comments in the socom blog, David “Point Man†Brothers reply that the people that get the june Qore will give acces to the plubic beta 2 weeks after its launched, the only way to get into ealier is by Pre-Ordering the game. O just thought id Share this with you to not get anyone confused.

 

P.S: I'm not trying to be a posting whore lol.

It's like the old Playstation Undergroud disc magazine that they would send you like once every quarter. Anybody else remember that?

Beat me to it Irsh. All the MGS4 addicts preordered so they could get the public beta and a lot of games are starting to do this. I too need to move my $5 from the preorder to something else lol.
