would be nice still for the CM's to offically annouce it now the cats been let out the bag. or at least rebuke these so people dont get there hopes up if its not right.
as for the beta, its mostly about stress testing the servers to make sure they can take load capicty then it is to find bugs/balance. there will be that, but its not a major concern for the beta weekends. unless game breaking bug is found.
Would be pretty awesome if its true! :D
It would be nice for an official announcement, I honestly don't see the harm in giving us a date, it's starting to get old watching the streams and hoping and them literally acting like its no big deal, I don't know I mean I love the CMs but one can only wait so long before we're like whatever
so german SYFY website, amazon and now best buy all claiming the same date for the next beta. either they are all operating off the same false info or its gonna be the 15th-17th.
why havent they announced? lack of confidence in the beta client/server build, might want another week or they think they might be able to run the next beta over the 8th-10th weekend. or they just want to drag it out!! (fist shake)
Amazon.co.uk had the console beta dates as 15-17th of March too, but removed them very quickly. Maybe they released the info too quickly? Either way this seems to confirm that Trion are aiming for those dates but are holding back confirmation until they're absolutely sure.

I dont understand why PR does stuff like that.. if they told Best Buy 1-2 weeks ago why cant they confirm it with us the same time we find out instead of telling us "that isnt official" only to make it "official" 1-2 weeks later?
2nd time i've seen this date i either hope its right or maybe even sooner :)
I would laugh if Trion Worlds decided to release the beta earlier.
/I hope they do because 2 weeks doesn't seem like ample time to fix some of the bigger bugs.
