So who are these 'veterans' that get invites to the playtest?

@infantrypeasant Rumours man rumours

@infantrypeasant I still think there are different pools of players that receive an invite.
The DICE Friends, people DICE wants to have in a playtest and people EA wants to have in a playtest.
The applied criteria may be vastly different.
Streamer - Reporter, people that spend several hours in Battlefield titles, people that played several hours in EA titles in general.

@infantrypeasant What are you talking about exactly?.... First of all it sure does sound like you are complaining about not playing a technical test and how could you come up with this amazing theory that somehow because some of the people doing the tech test may not have your epic 1337 BF status playing the "right way" and all that then the guys and gals who did the tech tests will ruin the game?..... this was a thread that should not have been.... (just so you have my credentials, got bf1942 day of release and had every bf game since but i can't figure out why it's not increasing my street cred....).
