It seems like the best people to give access to the Beta this summer would be the people who have been playing this darn game for 3 years...
Why is Beta access a pre-order bonus, anyway? We are paying them early so we can perform a service FOR them... That is all.
(OK, not really. Why can I even pre-order a game without so much as a single screenshot of actual gameplay? Now that's all.)

Preordering is just for early access to the beta.
