In my experience, PlanetSide was definitely the major testing ground. SnH before PlanetSide was a massive guild in a game called "Earth and Beyond." I took over the PlanetSide division when the game first entered beta.

What I learned while running the group in PlanetSide was that building community was far more important than numbers or tactics. If everyone got along well, they'd eventually work well tactically. We could teach people to get better, teaching them not to be jerks was tougher.
