It is great to see RS3 beginning to get beta servers. Now that everybody can see and personally experience the upcoming updates and give our feedbacks accordingly.
This is going to help the developers to give us the best RS3 updates as they can monitor the activities of the players who actually play the beta updates too.
This year is the Year of Combat for RS3, I think we will have plenty of chances to play with combat betas.
How do you feel about the new RS3 beta servers? What do you want to beta test next after FSOA and Animate Dead?
Yes, test servers are great to test out a lot of things. Not just death costs, we save instance fees too, like 600k gp per hour for Nex newer players may not afford in the main game.

Beta servers are not new, we had them with EOC and HTML5.
Most bosses have practice mode with no fee/death cost for the same reason. No need to go to beta servers.

Do any of you know how to leave the beta servers though i can't seem to be able to find it.
I am currently using the jagex Launcher to launch my game.
Right click Jagex Launcher from the task bar and pick exit. If that doesn't work use Task Manager to end task Jagex Launcher.

You still pay for supplies in practice mode while in beta you can use powder of penance and Super Sara brew. Also I'm not sure but sticking the sigil in the tree can leave you stuck with telos daily boss slayers. Yuck.

Exactly all of this.

Those were pre-EOC RS2 servers. We didn't actually get many chances to beta tested anything for a decade since then.
Practice modes aren't exactly the same as beta servers. A lot of boses don't have practice mode, and for those who have it there don't have Hard Mode practice mode.
I am loving the beta server. I don't have to worry about spending tens of millions of gp/hr on all the scrimshaws, repairments, divine charges, consumables etc there.
