What do you think CBT3 will be missing?

We all have seen the "what do you expect out of the beta", but this is a new perspective, tell us something that won't make it into the CBT3 in your opinion, considering what we are expecting.

For example: I think we aren't going to see the hero system yet. Not too much has been talked about that for a while, and even with abyss points working, I think heros won't be there this round.

Definetly the hero system and the draconic carrier.
Also I'm expecting we won't see ALL areas because they intend to keep the wow-effect (wow like whoa, niiiiiiiiiice ).
Maybe we get to see the full potential of the abyss, but somehow I doubt it...

i expect only 1 of the 3 abyss areas. Still no sign of Balaur, only elyos vs asmo faction wars.

Swimming wont be implemented (it hurts me better than any other things) and we wont see any climbing either ( (((((( ).

- the lvl35+ pvp skills, differencies between factions, etc.

i expect to see more tweaks to the current game especially pvp based tweaks, considering the Abyss will now be open. Maybe also a glimpse at some end game based content...

Class balance will be mia.
30-40 itemization will be lacking.
the full extent of the stigma system.

I'm thinking that really anything thats going to make up the core of the combat system at the endgame will be missing.

This beta will probably focus solely on the Abyss and maybe some Balaur testing.

Swimming will most likely be out but it's something I expect to see later in the game. Under-water world and PvP will be a nice addiction.

I would also like to see more differences in terms of stats and skills between both factions, although I suspect it won't happen during the CBT3.

I think class balance will be in, or at least there will be improvements considering the software they used during CBT2, stating which classes killed more, how the players died, etc. CBT2 pvp was balance testing in disguise.

Balaur might be in, and Im almost sure there will be balaurs in the upcoming CBT3 intro video, we'll see

And I think we will be missing some islands in the abyss, so PVE zones are probably going to be lacking a bit, tho we will be seeing e3's zones, which is cool enough.

And I think there won't be any epic raid boss.

They said they won't show other areas because they don't need testing

Climbing is a dead feature isn't it ?

Anyway, I think CBT3 will be missing content. Wich is obviously something that get's on my nerve, as i have no doubt that on release we will have all the content needed. As said by someone else previsouly in this thread... they want to keep the woaw effet, wich means not implementing everything. Wich also means another bad review by TIG's beta tester.

I doubt we'll see siege weapon/crafting aswell.

Yes... sadly it will be lacking in europeans and north americans bad mouthing each other as they pound their heads onto their keyboards in the hopes that they will actually succeed in doing something. Don't you love stereotypes?

It will be missing: Some abyss areas, likely many endgame intances/dungeons. Maybe a few areas, although with an apple core shaped world... there is definitely a limited space on each... hemisphere???? can they even be called that?????
Missing also epic weapons, armor, and likely high grade pvp rewards from the abyss. Oh and probably not to many balaur bosses.
