Other ways to get the R2 Beta
Don’t live in America, or want to pay for Qore, but you do want to get into the R2 Beta. Well according to Insomniac’s James Stevenson, “the best way which will give you the earliest access to the beta will involve a pre-order program that should be announced soon.”
I think it will be something like how the MGO Beta went. Where you had to pre-order MGS4 to get into the MGO Beta.

R2 Beta and more in Episode 3 of Qore
Resistance 2 Beta will be in next Episode of Qore. But the Beta is not going to start until late September. So I’m thinking its going to be like the frist Episode of Qore where they have the Socom Beta but you cant download it untill the Beta is ready to start.
