    Beta testing game

    I am somewhat new to Ubisoft, so I was wondering for all the beta players that are going to test your game. Do they get to have the full Division 2 game when it is released? or even keep the beta downloaded?

    In advanced, Thanks.

    No, all the beta testers must still purchase the full game on release.

    And while you CAN keep the beta download on whichever system you chose to beta test on, there's no reason to as the beta servers are taken offline when the beta ends.

    Are you sure about that???
    As far I remember in Div1 I played beta without having actual game purchased, also later on you could play 6 or 8 hours of trial on uplay for free and whole progress carried on to full game (trial only not beta)

    Anyone that gets invited to play the Beta can do so without having to buy the game. But you cannot continue playing the Beta when the test period ends.

    Когда начало

    Когда будет первый бета-тест. Когда начало предзаказа. Будут ли акционные предложения для владельцев Див1?))) Или только щиты, которые не дадут в итоге преимущества в PvP and PvE???

    This was already answered by echolecter but . . .

    Yes, you could play the Div 1 beta without purchasing the game. But you still had to purchase the game in order to play the full game. Being in the beta didn't get you a free copy. Then, once the beta concluded, you couldn't play the beta anymore because the servers were offline (probably converted to live servers).

    And the trial you're talking about WAS the full game. Which why it allowed you to carry over your progress once, or if, you decided to purchase the full game.

    We haven't released many details on the beta, so this info is just based on other Ubi betas I've been involved with:

    Beta players are not guaranteed access to the full game on release (they will still need to actually purchase the game). You can keep the beta files on your computer, but I don't think they'll be able to connect to anything once the beta period is over. Free trial versions are not the same as early access phases, they're technically a time-limited version of the full release (as I understand it).

    Again, this isn't based on any information I have on the TD2 beta, it's just what I would infer from the way we've done things in the past.

    Beta will not load once the testing is over so you won't be able to run it, and the play tab will change to "Buy Now". Just delete it once it's over as it's just wasting space on your HD at that point.
