if Mythic decided to release the next commercial expansion in Europe first (English servers only maybe) would you:

- pre-order, start 'testing' on day 1
- maybe give it a week to guage the initial reation
- give it a month to give you an idea just what you were up against
- avoid the angst and wait at least 3 months?

- spend your subs money on something worthwhile like a holiday in the sun or a stack of good books

Not that it'll happen, but i'd say this one...

Though as I recall the offical 'reason' for TOA not being properly beta tested was that they wanted to keep the trials a secret so that they didn't get people hitting the higher ML's / powerful artifacts so soon.

Kind of stupid really, but what can you do? :D

How the hell people managed to figure out ToA without anyone going before them is beyond me, most of the encounters just don't make sense without a guide or atleast a far better hint than you get in game....

As for bugs, I have a 0% tollerance, well maybe 10% as shit happens, I don't beta test things I'm paying for.

So I would wait until it's fun to play a stable version.

actually Pac Man is bugged kinda seeing as you cant actually finish it, i.e there is no end game like lvl50 or any credits etc..
