I don't believe they are expecting any real drastic problems with the core game, I think most of this beta run is to work out the kinks with downloading/distributing maps or making sure that configs aren't being overly trampled. While it makes testing a bit harder - I don't think these betas will really require 32 people servers stress testing the features in depth.
If you can get 2-4 people in it, and nothing goes wrong, I assume this is what they are testing.
