Don,
I'm sure some info does leak, its kind of the nature of the beast, but that
doesn't make it right. However I'm fairly sure much current info hasn't. I
assure you the beta testers know of no exploit or flaw which they can use to
their advantage, that you yourself could not find if you choose to spend the
time looking for them. The run the same game you do, atleast for anything
online thru the sierra servers. So all they can possibly have is knowledge,
which can be useful, but is there for anyone else to learn. The only reason
a beta tester may know of any of this is because they need to in order to
test properly to make sure these problems are fixed. You have to understand
the problem to make sure its fixed correctly.
I know and have raced with most if not all of the beta team, and I do not
think any of them would use any of these exploits in a league ( or even a
pick up for that matter) race. Its pretty easy to tell when someone is
using one of them, not just by their speeds, or lack of speed fall off, but
also my the attitude of the car thru the corner. Just because someone knows
of an exploit doesn't mean they would use it. Not everyone is like that.
If you feel there is a beta tester taking advantage of something somewhere
please show me.
