Beta testing (Destiny)

Since everybody was stuck with the first couple of classes in the beta, I'm thinking Bungie missed out on seeing how overpowered those subclasses can be in the crucible. At least it's something they can fix in an update.

Maybe, but I don't think so. It seem to me that Destiny was being play tested for a long time privately. Long before the Alpha even. Maybe Bungie thinks the Arc Blade super is restricted enough because activating it at the wrong time gets you no kills? Maybe we're supposed to realize that the Defender Titan's Suppression Grenades can stop a Bladedancer's super? Maybe it is balanced because it's pretty darn hard to survive a Nova Bomb, Fist of Havoc, or Golden Gun as well?
