Blade & Soul Closed Beta Features

Qing Gong Martial Arts MMORPG, Blade and Soul, has announced the special features that you can look forward to for their upcoming Closed Beta Test. Players who own Founder's Packs in the Beta will receive special Test NCoins, which are test versions of their cash shop currency that can be virtually spent during the Closed Beta to help test out the store and features. To clarify, none of these points will actually be used, and you'll still have your full amount when the game launches.

One of the more interesting features are their in-game surveys, which reward players periodically with in-game rewards for answering surveys. This is definitely one of the better versions of surveys that I have personally seen... and something more games should really take a look at doing!

The Currency Exchange system will also be live during the test, which is used as an in-game Real Money Transfer service. This allows players to trade in game gold for NCoins and will be based on a supply & demand system rather than a price-lock.

Closed Beta begins on October 30th and you can check out the official announcement here.
