I was just thinking that ZOS should somehow refund all of the efforts of beta testers.

Just on-side not - I'm just still the unlucky one, so no self interest here.

I was just thinking, if they buy game and use same email, then they could get free time = time they been active during beta tests.

Some games give out some vanity items to those that have been in the beta.... But I hardly think they would give out a free week or something like that. If anything it will be some skin to your avatar.

I say no, because that would be a bit unfair for those that got invited to one beta test as opposed to those that were lucky enough to get invited to more than one.

Not to mention those that didn't get an invite at all.

A simple 'Beta Tester' title would be a better choice, but don't see much point for it.

I vote for free month/two months. They played free testing and kept NDA and lost their efforts in progress - when they buy game then I'm very positive to let them play for free.

Maybe a special emote that can only be learned from someone who was in beta but no titles or anything.

Heheh, wouldn't that be nice?

Nah, they don't owe us anything to be honest, we signed up voluntarily.

I demand a statue of me made of pure gold be erected in the town square of Daggerfall.

They let you get a glimpse of the game before everyone else, that's reward enough!

Yes I agree with this.

Really? I'm reading the thread and shaking my head.

You guys aren't just doing ZOS a favor by being Beta testers, you're also reporting bugs, glitches, and server issues (well, hopefully you are...). Why do you feel that you should get something special in-game? Is getting to play the game early and personally witness the build progress not enough?

Is watching the game improve from Beta session to Beta session not "reward" enough? To know that your input has helped craft and shape a game to be even more amazing than it could have been otherwise?

ZOS could have simply hired professional or in-house Beta testers (like every company does for the Alpha phases of a game) and not had this at all. Aside from a thank you for helping us, why should you deserve something more than a brief mention in the game?

Money, always money...

Must everything in life be tainted by money?
