The idea of a Beta version of new features was a really good idea, what happened to it? It was mentioned in this blog post, which I quoted below.

Specifically this bit at the bottom of this devblog

Releasing new features as BETA before fully integrating them into the game is a new concept we at CCP are trying out and the new NeoCom will be one of the first features to get such royal treatment. The idea here is to make the introduction of new features a smoother experience, both for developers and players. To enable a BETA feature, one must go to the "General settings" tab of system menu (ESC) and press the relevant button in the bottom left corner. Should this iteration of the new feature not meet your expectations, you can simply turn it off for the time being and tell us why you did so on the forums. Even though SISI has proven a great play testing tool, we feel confident that trying out new features on TQ where you are actually playing the game will provide better feedback than we‘ve been able to get in the past.


The first was supposed to be the new NEOCOM ... the second should have been this new unified inventory mess. Can y'all get back on board with this CCP? Because right now, this part is far from the truth
