It's a lot better than pushing content to live servers that only got playtested internally. Maybe they wouldn't have to backtrack and fix as many issues in patch 1.2a,b,c etc. if they let their players test it.

    They don't have the resources to keep one server open and put content under development on it? I'm sure they have an internal server that they test on.

    Sure they test their junk in house on their server, not a chance they will ever let players test it no matter how much it would benefit them. Don't get me wrong, it's a great idea and would be a huge benefit, but I don't see them ever doing it before or even around 2.0. Just not feasible.

    Doesn't have the word public anywhere, looks like they are preping the server to test 2.0 things, or just upgrading in general, not giving access to the playerbase.
