Once they can hold like 5k a server then they can go into open beta. Once they can see no major bugs and most bug squashed then they could go Retail. We as testers need to make sure we get all the bugs we can see =).
    It will not be that quick. lol A short downtime between phases would be a week to a week and a half. Let's not get irrationally optimistic on this games transition into retail. Especially when this is it's second go. Fully expect them to take all the time in the world between phases and between open beta and release.
