Guild Wars 2 Stress Test Next Week

The ArenaNet Blog announces plans to stress test the servers for Guild Wars 2 next Wednesday, and invites all those who have participated in previous beta events or pre-purchased the game to participate:
We were very pleased with how our servers performed during our second Beta Weekend Event, but we want to gather additional data on how they operate under load before the next one.
That’s where you come in.

All players who have pre-purchased Guild Wars 2 are invited to participate in our upcoming stress test. This four-hour test event will run on Wednesday, June 27th, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. PDT (GMT-7).

We won’t wipe characters for this event, so if you played in our previous betas, you can pick up right where you left off. All we need you to do is log in and have fun—leave the stress to us!

Yeah, I am getting tired of this type of testing too. Last Beta event I was out of town and the one before that I was working so I missed it entirely. These short stress tests during the normal workday seem to be more intended to catch the public's attention and/or just a PR stunt.

This kind of testing amounts to no more than a demo. If they truly wanted the game tested publicly it would be a full closed beta, at the very least for those us who have pre-purchased the game. Leave this beta weekend/stress test garbage for people who haven't already paid.

Don't get me wrong, I like the game, and I'm eagerly awaiting launch, but this "testing" model is bullshit.
