not exactly no. chances are they a throttling what we see t otest aspets of the game, like the coop, missions, pvp etc for bugs as well as needed polishing.

we already know theres more zones then we see, we know theres more pvp modes. some functions they might feel is not ready for beta yet. again we know clans is being worked on now.

just because its not there now doesnt mean it wont be there for launch.

This is what worries me. You are placing heavy faith that these issues are all just going to disappear. I didnt know how long they have been working on this game until I watched a press conference with the tv show cast. They have been at it for two years. Would be nice if they posted a video of gameplay/ livestream/beta that did not have issues prior to launch. I am greatly encouraged though that lots of people are exctied/standing behind the game.

Yes and no actually. The physical discs with v1.0 code still need to be created and distributed. That process usually takes ~4 weeks, if not slightly more. With 8 weeks until launch, that leaves very little time to get to v1.0, especially with absolutely no feedback from console players to this point. Certainly issues like these can be patched/updated after release, but having such issues at launch is a game killer in most cases, particularly for a shooter where playing with friends is everything for many gamers.
