Eric, is there any particular reason why you guys don't use a PTR server for testing patches? I'm sure some of us would be happy to test new patches on a PTR server before actual launch and cut down on the issues that sometimes crop up. Overwatch and Star Trek Online have test servers and have very little issues when applying patches. (At least as much as I can tell)
As for the free codes, I'm only annoyed that by the time I get there, they're already used up. I would much rather have extended XP boost or codes similar to the cantina event, something that everyone can get and enjoy.
Thanks for keeping us up to date as much as you have today, that helps minimize some of the anxiety.
