So the expansion news is great to hear and I'm hopeful it will add a lot more to the game, and I completely understand the need to monetise the game going forward. I do feel that in the best interest of Horizons, beta access should be widened to (non-premium) beta backers by default. Putting vital testing behind an additional paywall for those who helped fund and test the game during beta doesn't seem an ideal situation, especially given the increased complexity of Horizons. That has been a complaint of the current patches for ED, the lack of time and player base to test, and while I assume Horizons will have a longer beta testing period, it makes sense to draw upon a wider pool of existing beta backers without them having to pay a premium.
