Whats the point in early access to an update if

-you dont listen to the feedback

-its incomplete

and

-99% of the time, the update itself is buggier than the ptb was???

    It's common knowledge at this point that the PTB is to generate hype, instead of actually taking tested feedback.

    its another case of bhvr caring more about money than the community

    The fact that there's no reward for playing in the PTB is pretty cringe.

    "Come do our work for us including balance and bug testing as well as free advertising. What's that? No you won't get to keep any of the BP or experience you accumulate while doing this. Excuse me? You want some kind of compensation? Huh? You expect us to actually act on the feedback you give us? Get lost."

    It sounds like labor. streamers play, get 0 benefits except early access to killer and survivor, along with perks that will definitely be changed everytime

    To play devil's advocate here (I'M NOT SAYING THIS IS MY ENTIRE OPINION, JUST OFFERING A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE):

    You do get free access to try out future DLC for free. Additionally maybe there's some technical jargon that makes it hard to track who has played the PTB (for all we know this is probably one of those "we don't have to bandwidth to implement this" type of things).

    REGARDLESS, some BP or Shards for playing the PTB, maybe with a stipulation that you provide feedback on the changes, would be really cool to see, since we have been told that feedback helps.

    One could argue those are great talking points for the game in general. 😂
