In Response To: Re: Did LW play the mythic map pack recently? (pete_the_duck)


: That still sounds pretty darn open to me. There is a huge difference between
: "not free" and "invite only". The beta was open to the
: public--you might have had to buy crackdown, but ANYONE could buy
: crackdown. A hypothetical private party at Bungie HQ is not open to the
: public--whether you gave someone $60 or not.

: But the point I'm trying to make is--WHY. Yeah, they could invite a
: handpicked group of people and make them sign a NDA--but WHY. WHY have
: people pay several hundred dollars for airline tickets to fly to Bungie HQ
: to check out some maps? WHY let them see something which they aren't even
: allowed to talk about, and WHY risk info leaks by doing so? WHY send the
: message to the fans that "we like these guys, so we're going to treat
: them special. They know something you don't and they aren't allowed to
: tell you."

: ??
Why?

Because these are big fans who have done a lot for Bungie just out of the love of their games (Wu certainly has) and Bungie is being cool to them. Bungie has done it before and I see no reason to doubt it's veracity this time.
