It’s a curious move on Bethesda’s part to allow players with plenty of spare time to effectively progress without limitations before the game has been released, so it’s likely that there will be some kind of caveat. The “full game” likely just means the full map, and not that every gameplay feature is available; it’s unlikely, for example, that microtransactions will be live during the beta.

Regardless of limitations, a beta that allows access to the full game and allows all progress to carry over is a very attractive prospect that will likely encourage plenty of additional pre-orders from fans keen to get a head start. Bethesda are setting themselves apart since betas usually offer a heavily limited build of the full game, but then again, betas usually don’t take place just a month before the full game is due to release.
