Metal Gear Online : Beta


I'll take something from wikipedia: The definition of Beta:

Beta

Main article: Betaware

A beta version is the first version released outside the organization or community that develops the software, for the purpose of evaluation or real-world black/grey-box testing. The process of delivering a beta version to the users is called beta release. Beta level software generally includes all features, but may also include known issues and bugs of a less serious variety.

The users of a beta version are called beta testers. They are usually customers or prospective customers of the organization that develops the software. They receive the software for free or for a reduced price, but act as free testers.

Beta versions test the supportability of the product, the go-to-market messaging (while recruiting Beta customers), the manufacturability of the product, and the overall channel flow or channel reach.

 

Basically, a beta version is a readied product that is release for testing and to attract more customers. Why would you expect a jump in resolution from beta to final? They pretty much the core programming done.

OT, I agree as I constantly have to adust the resolutions on my PC from game to game and there's nothing that makes the 720p mark so special.
