Blizzard's Open Beta: A Game Preview

Rodrigo: Server slam was an optional third weekend. We had to actually give ourselves more time to make some of the changes that we wanted to based on our learnings. And as you saw, there's a lot that we learned from that from both a technology point and a feature standpoint. So if we're kind of effectively compared to a launch of a lot of live service games, we're basically getting version 1.01 at launch rather than 1.0. That's part of the great thing about having a live service game where you can fix things from the servers.
