As the old saying goes; "put up or shut up".

Are you just trolling or just completely did not understand my statement? I don't care about EA or its security or piracy etc etc. Besides I'm already very gainfully employed, but thanks for the suggestion anyway.

That's true but there are stupid opinions. Many (most) people who purchase single player games probably don't finish them. Having a very late beta out in the wild a month before launch will invariably limit sales from such people because the beta is enough for them to occupy the limited attention they can devote to any single game. Instead of paying $50 at launch due to hype and getting bored with the game after a few levels/hours, they will pay $0 and get bored anyway. Still, the company is out $50 - i.e. the leak will impact sales.
