Nice move on SOEs part since we were not able to use the aplha squad implant along with a 50% one.

yes and now we have to lobby support for our Alpha Squad back again as we replaced it with the 50% XP boost a while back

(also it's not just 50% XP boost with Alpha, it's +50% XP AND RESOURCE boost)

(that's huge)

Makes me feel a better about not playing during the holiday double xp, as well as rerolling. Thanks SOE dudes.

You already got the privilege of playing in Beta.

Yes but we should have morthan just a little decal that says, "Hey look! I played in Beta and all I got was this lousy decal!" we should get at the least an exsclusive camo pattern that we can use infinitely or maybe even a certain weapon? I'd be happy with the decal and camo. It no weapon,that's fine. I'm just asking for something more than just a little decal that hardly anyone pays attention to :/ after all, I've seen where in other games, beta testers get bonus things that no one else can get. For instance, World of Tanks beta testers got an exclusive tank that no one else could get. Maybe in Planetside 2 we can get an exclusive camo pattern? :/

Why? Unless WoT beta testers had to pay for something exclusive then the two situations aren't at all comparable.

What you're suggesting wouldn't be fair for those who paid money for the exclusive items that you're suggesting other beta testers should get for free. Even if it's different camo or whatever, it still wouldn't be right for those who paid for alpha. At any rate, it's only camo not worth worrying over.

I got an golden pistol, but I don't know if I got that because I played in the tech test/beta, or for some kind of other reason...

Anyway really happy with this of course

I get minimum +100% XP right now, not counting empire bonuses.

I personally just enjoyed being in beta.
I really dont see why beta players need an actual bonus.

Left my Alpha Squad Boost in on my Main this whole time. This makes me soooo friggen happy. Actually I bought 5 50% Boosts when they were on sale. That stack is just sitting there waiting for the Alpha Squad boost to expire.

With Premium and Alpha Squad boost in I default to a minimum of 85% right now. Playing earlier on Amerish with a Pub Squad I was seeing 120 to 125% Exp Boost the whole time.
