I don't really think everyone having access to the upcoming update contents is a good idea, perhaps a select few of the community that are trusted? otherwise it's just going to make the updates less surprising and fun because you've already tried all the new stuff beforehand.

I think it would make to be a good VIP feature as then new players wouldn't join this instead of Zarp main
Giving a very limited set of core players a testing ground and pvp area for new and existing content doesn't seem to be fair for others as it grants them practice and insight on items that others will not have
