do your stats from the closed beta carry over?
i mean... it's still a beta

Probably not .From past experience in KZ beta, all stats will be reset once full game released.

i mean the beta.
from closed to open.

not beta to full game

Oo, from closed? Nope, it will be reset also. And, I have to redownload the beta coz the open beta is different build.

If no reset, then I'm sure peeps from closed beta will spam Vanguard. Not balance already.

Saw from youtube, the Vanguard is like COD killstreak?

It's like COD care package. Vanguard containers drop on occasion. They are like random care packages that anyone can try to open. Most of the time you just need to hold Triangle, others you need to complete a hacking mini game.

If you save up Valor you can purchase a vanguard as an item.

in the midst of battle?

Yeah, in WARZONE - HACKING mode. A few Vanguard will drop, and you need to complete the mini game to gain vanguard and points.

But, for the rest of the Warzone match, you just need to press Triangle only.

arrr only sometimesi use it as doorstopper or wheelstoppe for my car hahah

Killzone: Mercenary open beta will go live for PS Plus subscribers tomorrow.

currently don't own a vita but IGN has poisoned me w this

The game looks GORGEOUS!

So just to confirm, in order to get into the public beta I just have to wait for the invite? No need to register anywhere right?

Anybody with the open beta codes can join right now.

Those with PS+ subscription will be able to download after the store update tomorrow morning.

Finally the open beta will be available to everybody else without code/PS+ after next week's store update.

Can't wait to spam sky fury again lol.

Awesome! I have been wishing for a good Vita FPS for so long! I've been holding off on buying the Vita for that exact reason but I have now just got my hands on a used one yesterday in anticipation for this game!
