Global Alpha Test Start Date

[Faiyez]

But why? Alpha testers have a different forum than us - it was stated awhile ago. What benefits will knowledge of a previous forum do towards the testing of an alpha version of what is at the core a different game?

Talk about missing the point... sheesh.

Give me a reason how participation in an outside forum helps SE test a game that has its own forum. Do tell me.

Talk about living in the past.

I'd assume Faiyez is referring to the idea that if you've participated in playing 1.xx for the past two years knowing full well that 2.0 is on the horizon and SE needs/wants/has been asking for feedback the entire time, yet you have never once visited/posted on their forums to do so... what makes you think their suddenly going to get all chatty now? Not saying I necessarily agree with that, but I can at least follow the logic.
