As I’m sure the topic of should player’s characters carryover from the beta is kicking around over at Bungie, I thought I would throw out my two cents [not that it really matters!]
As my main character, I have now invested some amount of hours simply exploring all of the cosmodrone.
It was quite rewarding being able to play in such a large area, especially with the whole “if you can see it, you can get there” sort of approach. All of the hidden caves and chests all over the place, the dead ghosts, and lets not forget the golden chests. The fun adventures I had trying to sneak past the ?? guys on the other side of the strike zone. Or that “holy shit” moment, when I got absolutely destroyed by the ?? guy protecting the chest. Finding him totally by accident, was a great moment of exploration for me, and I can only hope to have tons more of those moments in the full game.
All that being said, “been there, done that” --- I don’t think it’s necessary for me to go through it again … nor will I have those “aww” inspiring moments a second time around.
I surely didn’t when I started an alt.
For that reason alone, I would push to have characters carryover.
My 2 cents :)

I'd just like to have at least something crossover whether it's the currency, the equipment, just something.
