In an online game there is only one way to test with the numbers required....
A small playtesting team definitely isn't going to be able to stress the servers anywhere near as well as we can with it in the wild.

Unfortunately, that's just wrong. There are ways to stress your systems and do performance and load testing by automated means. Also, you are assuming this has to do with load stresses and there's zero evidence of that. These are authenitication issues with the launcher app and potentially Steam integration - those are rarely load issues. And wouldn't you know it, Steam integration was one the bug items on today's list?
Well you can, just program the bots that will log into actual accounts and stress test login page, you dont need actual humans
In the latest launch attempt, I get a window bar, the login buttons and a big, blank white box where the content usually is.
Yep, the launcher is completely down for me. Won't allow me to login at all. Shame that whenever this game gets updated it basically means you won't be able to play for the entire day. Even more if you count the many bugs that will be there for at least a week.
Check launcher it works now
Working, yay!
Seems to be OK now - just been in game, lost engineering on one item, exit and wait for bug fix (not going through all that engineering palaver again).
