This article is about the event. For the achievement relating to this event, see Open Beta (Achievement).
Open Beta was started on July 2nd, 2010 and continued until July 9th, 2010. It began just one day after Closed Beta 6 ended. It was actually the continuation of Closed Beta 6, so all players that participated in that beta were able to keep their driver intact and continued in Open Beta. All features in Closed Beta 6 were available in this beta as well.
This beta was open to public, so any player could just create an account and join the beta. Most of the features that were available in this beta went into the game launch.
