If ED don't have some input into testing campaigns that are released as payware and integrated with their base product then they are:
1. Unprofessional 2. Absolutely #%&*$# mad
I fully expect ED to test these campaigns to ensure functionality and quality before release. Its hard to believe they would even allow a campaign to be released without a certain level of quality. This is another reason why I suggest that every campaign has to utilise ED resources even if its created by 3rd parties, and also that an update to the base engine/version will require another subset of testing for all campaigns......the more campaigns there are the more time for testing is required.
I'm sure ED test all platforms on a new DCS release, there is no valid reason why campaigns wouldn't be tested too. Another reason why I'd much rather a stable version of DCS is focused on before we see a flurry of these additional content campaigns. They're already in a position whereby campaigns only work with a certain development branch of the game which is madness. They mmay get a quick cash boost in the short term but probably lose it in the long run due to the increased effort that will be required post 2.5.
