The open beta for APB: Reloaded has been pushed back to next week following the discovery of a new crash issues that's dumping players from the server. The problem with this issue is that it's not making itself easy to track down for devs, so to ensure the open beta runs smoothly, the devs have pushed it back to next week to provide the team a little extra time to track down what's causing the issue. With any luck, they'll be able to track down the issue and fix it instead of taking the less-desired approach.
Rolling back several versions is certainly not the preferred option as it puts us firmly back into Closed Beta, but could be done (it would take us back to somewhere in the 1.5.0.7x range), so instead we are making one last push to get through the current issue with the production load, and we continue to ask our Closed Beta testers to help hammer the servers over the weekend so we can reevaluate where we are on Monday.
