Ah yes, the downside of making cash on Betas instead of having selected true beta testers : players take it as an early access while it is nothing more than a test and a bug hunt.
In such a case you expose yourself to moaning after design changes, cries and tears because of wipes, reprimand over bugs or stuff not yet included, players telling others how your game sucks while it is not complet, and finally the burnout with players leaving without even trying the RC software.
That's not FD's fault, blame it rather on the big publishers that have poisoned the well by putting out a "gimme more money for early access" product as a "beta"....
"Oh no, you're testing not playing, you can learn all the maps, work out the dynamics of all the guns and we wouldn't DREAM of turning you loose on the legions of n00bs as a seasoned vet... just head out there and enjoy the feature complete servers while we 'load test' and pocket your cash.. " </sarcasm>
ED beta (or gamma) isnt like that, if you buy into this thing at this stage (not that anyone can any more, everyone that will be in already is) then you are getting to try out an incomplete game and in return are expected to help the devs fix holes in it. You still get some perks come final release, but you aren't in the same situation as (for example) the folks that signed up for a "Battlefield" beta.
We are closer to feature complete than we were, but it still isnt all the way there.
