The problem with that is that they cant fix the issue if the servers arnt on. Them being on makes it a lot easier to pin point whats happening and fix it. These ARE the proper tests.
Ive been able to play a few missions already and yea, i dont care about all the disconnects and login problems im just happy to play again, even if its just for a few minutes.
Its not a public release, its a BETA TEST. Its not supposed to be done, or even close to it. Its just meant to test how much the server can handle and fix the problems that arise, and they ARE WORKING on fixing them, it doesnt take 3 seconds it takes days to fix stuff like this.
Probably because theres a bunch of people doing the same thing. But like they said in the post i linked, they are working on it and theres nothing we can do to help. Just let em work their magic.
