Thanks for sharing! I agree, ED's team is probably tiny but I did not think it would just be 1-2 guys, maybe 5 max? I would've thought there'd be more. But then that's why they have Open Beta, right? However, if they did want to make the end-of-January release date, maybe instead of promising the release at the end of Dec 2017, Wags should've opened the Beta at that point and the community would've been able to play the heck out of the game during the Christmas break and the dev team would've come back by mid-January to a big list of bug reports they could sift through.

Promising a release date and then releasing the Open Beta at that date just doesn't look good for them. If they don't release the Release version by the 3rd week of February, or just release 2.5 in whatever state it's in and call it "Release," it'll look worse.
