Hi everyone,

Just a heads-up, the Xbox 360 and PC Multiplayer BETA's are coming to a close. Both BETA's are officially closing Monday morning, 11/10/08. You will not be able to log in on either the Xbox 360 or the PC starting Monday morning. This is in preparation for the retail release that will follow later that evening at midnight!

It's been a great few weeks, and we've collected an invaluable amount of data as a result of both BETA's. As you may have noticed, there was a Title Update released for the Xbox 360 BETA, demonstrating just a small subset of the fixes we've implemented for the retail game. As for the PC, we have a patch we're preparing already to address some of the more important issues discovered with your BETA.

For that, I extend our sincerest thanks to the community for all the great feedback, and truly hope you enjoyed the BETA. Expect some more exciting news over the weekend, and keep an eye out as we prepare to unveil a very exciting new site feature to go live with the game!

So be sure to head out to the closest Gamestop retail location providing a midnight opening for Call of Duty: World at War Monday night and get your full game, or find it in shelves in North America Tuesday, and across Europe Nov. 14!

Regards,
-JD

Regards, Cactus Deluxe

We did a major update to the beta (headshot sounds, map glitch fixes, more) even though I didn't think we would. We released the information about the very unique COOP Zombie game mode way ahead of schedule in the spirit of Halloween. We are giving you a nearly limitless number of opponents by making the beta available to all (which should really make the folks who never got a key happy).

If the above isn't big enough for you, I don't know what is. That's easily at least 3 beer trucks worth of fun at absolutely no cost to you.

GameStop has been sending out emails with this information and some of the guys over @ www.callofduty.com brought it to the boards. You don't have to call. I simply gave that number for any of the naysayers or skeptics. They have an automated message when you first call that gives you the same information I've posted.

I don't get why people would get uptight over this news, the early beta codes for pre-ordering/joining CallofDuty.com early are simply bonuses, a mere 'thanks' from Activision. Unless they're the ones who payed $30 for a code, in which case they were warned not to do so they really brought it all on themselves.

My bad :). Anyway, I think that its a good move on Treyarch's part. Exposes more people to the beta, more customers.

That's why they have demo's. BETA's are exclusive, for those who actually care to report any bugs or problems, not so they can get free advertisement, once again, that is what demo's are for.

I laughed @ bolded bit, too true.

It's good in mine because I need to rank up faster, since this game goes by later guns being better the the early ones, but once it's all even out I would rather go to private matches with friends I know are just as good as I am, or somewhere close.

I think it's a good idea that they're opening it, but stupid that they're still calling it a beta. In reality, it's been a demo for a while now. The big glitches were found in the beginning and everyone's just been playing the game for the point of playing.

Also, I don't understand why people were paying for the beta codes. There were plenty of sites to get them for free. Yeah, they weren't easy to find. I didn't get mine right away, either, but to pay for a beta? Really? Can you believe that these things were selling for $30 on ebay? Maybe I'm just not enough of a "hardcore gamer" to understand...

Yeah, I am a chick. I'm *THE* Queen and I LOVE my King.
