I wonder how fesible that is. For Destiny given the rock solid states of the Alpha and Beta, sure. What about all the game's who launches were disasters? What about all the game that had day one patches?

Having a small population find problems before the larger population sounds great, the digital download customers become gamma testers. Early release doesn't have to be the day of cert, just between cert and sale of physical goods. It would complicate marketing, though.
