Should D&D Next be having the obvious problems that it's having at this point in the playtest?

[QUOTE="ForeverSlayer, post: 6066889, member: 91812"] This is going to be a discussion thread about D&D Next and it's current state. I've been reading a few of threads on here, especially the one where the rogue single-handed takes out the dragon that was designed to challenge three PCs and the other thread about PC's doing too much damage. I'm just wondering if D&D Next should be having the obvious problems they are having. I mean are they playtesting their material before they send it on to the public to playtest or are they just coming up with material and then sending it on to the public. If they did a standard playtest then they would have seen that there is a problem with damage output and with creatures like the dragon. With their resources and staff I would expect their material to be better than it is without the obvious mistakes. I know it's still in the playtest phase but it should be better than this to be honest. The more of the playtest I see the less I like it and the more I cozy up to Pathfinder. I don't think my expectations are set too high for a company like Wizards or has their ability decreased and my expectations are in fact set too high? [/QUOTE]
