EXTEND THE TEST PLEASE!
I'm having a blast but come on like 4 days is not enough, give us another week, the game is great, but I'm sure most of us have barely scratched the surface interms of the upgrading and things. Come on!

I do not. End test and start fixing game.
Do something new and unique.
No end game
PVPVe <- correct. "e" is to avoid and and "P" to hunt everyone. Snipers everywhere [also I]. First 20 min is about take high place near most valuable spot and kill everyone.
Every match is 1:1 the same
Most boring gameplay
too routine.

I'd be okay with them leaving what the game is now and leave the playtest open while they finish the actual rest of the game behind the scenes

You do realize it costs money to have the game up and running? Server infrastructure is not cheap and obviously they are not charging for the game or have any other monetization atm so running the tech test is only costing them money.

Lol it's literally little to no expense for them, they would recoup it all and more back from the level of marketing extending it would create. Not only would it hype the release up big time but it would also incline people to check out The Finals too

LOL, stop with the faded take. It for sure is a pretty big cost to host servers. They most likely run them in the cloud which enables them to only be charged for what they use so yeah running the Tech Test costs them some serious coin for sure.

Having 20 years within IT infrastructure I would say I have a really good idea on the costs of hosting server infrastructure for a large amount of users, and it gets expensive pretty quickly.

Lol it's not a faded take, everything costs cash, but it doesn't cost them anything near what would break the bank, if they extended it for a week it would get more.people playing and ultimately more people who end up buying the game, you pay upfront and recoup later it's basic business.

And you aren't the only one in the IT space dude

The initial post basically implied to leave the tech test up until the game is finished. Big difference from letting it run another week.

It literally says "give us another week" how in what world does that imply leave it until release

Well yea they shouldn't just leave it on, it would then achieve the opposite, people would get burnt out and then not be excited to return when it goes live
