MaCoo Posted June 23, 2008 Report Posted June 23, 2008 http://www.ps3fanboy.com/tag/socom-confrontation Did you buy Qore solely for access to the SOCOM Confrontation beta? Well, looks like you might've bitten too early. A small comment on the SOCOM official website shows that Qore guarantees access into the beta ... but two weeks after the public beta launches. Wha? According to a comment by David Brothers, "Qore gives access to the public SOCOM beta two weeks after the public beta launches." Why would they delay beta access to Qore members? We're not entirely sure. However, there are other ways to go about getting access into the beta: "There are other ways to get into the public beta beforehand, like the upcoming preorder program, so don't worry about the ratio of non-SOCOM fans to SOCOM fanatics." These comments were made three days ago, so it's unclear if the beta's policies have changed since then. We're going to try and find out the latest word -- stay tuned. Update: Veronica Belmont has updated us: "If you buy the pre-order for SOCOM with the headset, and put $5 down for the beta, you'll get it a bit before ours (and that's depending on if everything ships as planned, too). They're not the same beta. Otherwise, our beta is still before anyone else will get it." [Thanks, Mike!] Quote
Neoblackhound Posted June 24, 2008 Report Posted June 24, 2008 Yea I kinda knew some of that and dude I payed for my socom and didn't get the beta so I think that's not true about if you reserve. Quote

That's what multiple sites have been stating. That's why I haven't pre-ordered yet. It kinda looks like the people that pre-ordered right off the bat are getting screwed a bit. Quote

I didn't know about that till after I payed for it imma talk to my buddy that works there to see if its true also to see if I get a beta waiting for me when I get my ps3 back. Quote

Yea I went a day after MGS4 came out to pick it up and I payed for it all. They give you a choice between the 59.99 one with the headset or the 39.99 one with the game only. Quote
