So now you're complaining because you're a beta tester and you ran into a problem? That's why you're there, to tell MS something went wrong and that they need to fix it. That way when this update is pushed out to everyone else it doesn't happen.
Lol, this. It also sounds a lot like he might have made a mistake typing his console's serial number. I know when I read the piece of paper that came with the disc it said if you install the beta update on a non-regiestered console you will not be able to do anything on live until the beta is released to the general public.

I wondered the same thing. However it does suck if he did it correctly that it stopped him from being on live. I know its part of being a beta tester, but since he posted I've been paranoid I would lose connection. It also sucks if MS has admitted that was a potential bug, hey we want you to test this on live......but it might prevent you from being on live...... brilliant!!
Can't be earning achievements offline you know. The only reason I signed up was the free copy of Reach + having a second 360 if there was a problem.

Screw that, if only it someone took away one single achievement from each of the completions you have except Avatar so you look like a noob!
Also, why the fuck does your gamerpic disappear and reappear? Are you a magician?

My only regret from this is that I can't play Reach without losing a completion on my dashboard and/or sell Reach (which is what I intended on doing with the copy they sent me). I still can't get onto the website to write about things I have or have not encountered, but I really didn't plan on doing that anyways.

Lol. True.
I'm obviously not the biggest fan of MS although honestly I prefer the 360 over the other consoles. It has more to do with the years I spent as the "IT" guy at jobs.....translation I was the one who knew the most about computers and thereby to save the company money was always the guy to fix the problems.
I couldn't stand how some of the programs you use are written. Although when a Mac breaks.....its super broke, I have to admit the programs on it work so much better! I imagine MS programmers making this update and going.....well what if it knocks someone off of Live? Oh well, we'll just send them an update....they can Download! Then laughing while they go back to playing games and writing bad coding.
