Is there an actual benefit for participating in the beta right now? obviously they aren't giving away prizes or anything yet so i was just wondering if it's just for fun or what?

When you play you get chances to win in the sweepstakes. Not sure about the entire North American beta, but it was like that for the Canadian-only one. Plus, it's a good way to kill time with friends.

It's just for fun. However, I don't believe you can't really complain about something if it's free to play. It didn't cost you anything to play it. I will admit that I have got a little less interested in playing it, but it's still a pretty fun party game to play with friends.

Well it's free right now. When the game is released you will have to buy a subscription. Most people arn't going to win anything anyways, so playing it while it is free let's you experience it before the actual game is released.

Here is a definition I found off a site from Googling. Hope it helps you!

"A test for a product prior to commercial release. Beta testing is the last stage of testing. Beta testing is often preceded by a round of testing called alpha testing. Beta testing is to help secure the function of the product and to help developers, engineers, ect to find problems with in their products so that the final release of the product would be better fuctioning."
