Xbox beta client download before event starts?

positive thoughts my a** if they dont allow a pre load i am cancelling my preorder and hoping it fails!
Just kidding thought i would post it before some troll did yes it would be a great idea.

I really am hoping this will turn out well for Xbox. I've always been addicted to SyFy as well so this game really looks good on paper. Have to work during the beta so I would appreciate some extra download time since I might get called into work at anytime.

they should let us download it early because we will spend most of the timeloading the game then install it, how i know this because i played ffxi 4 years and those kind of game takes forever.

Yeah, this would be nice to know. I already feel like we are being screwed. I mean really, 3 days for pc which has had 2 tests already, a freaken week for ps3, and xbox gets less than 48 hours on a monday and tuesday? it's kind of insulting. I know it's a beta, and I shouldn't complain, but damn could we have gotten shafted any more?

Again, this probably comes back down to me being greedy, but i spent 150 bucks on a pre-order that guaranteed beta access. As far as I'm concerned that means I payed for beta, and so did everyone else who pre-ordered for 360, and we are all getting slapped in the face. I mean really, you can't even run a proper stress test on a monday and tuesday, it's almost pointless even for its "point"

People feeling like they payed for betas is what is ruining them... You did not pay for a beta. You payed for a game and some extra goodies. The fact they are even giving betas out to people is them being nice. Most games dont even do betas so stop crying and be happy it even exists.

That's unfortunate :/

[Bunta]

it would be nice, especially since we only get 2 days. it would suck if the downloading part is so overwhelming that it takes majority of the day to download.

That's unfortunate :/

thats a downer.

If this is the case, it's disappointing, but not a game breaker.
