I am very concerned that SOE has not devoted sufficient time to adequately test the CURB. We were told that the CURB would be tested first by the correspondents and the 5 + for each profession. Then there would be a closed beta that many of us signed up for and then there would be an open beta on test center. I felt that level of testing was necessary for a change this fundamental. First, we learned that SOE was skipping closed beta. Tonight, it appears that the Alpha testing by the correspondents and the 5 + never happened?
Why was the three levels of testing necessary when the original plan was developed, but now its not? SOE I think you need to account for your self on this score. You cannot release the CURB before its ready.
I am very cynical about this issue. From my perspective, the Devs didn't budget enoug time ore resouces to the project and just ran out of time and now have to get the wookie expansion out before the Ep. 3 and don't want to incur the public relations nightmare of delaying the CURB in favor of another expansion.
SOE, if I am wrong, please tell me your justification for rushing the testing of the CURB. I would love to here it.
