Let me get this strait. CE HS starts the 14ths.
Right now eastern time it's 1:30 am 12th.

So open beta ends the 13th?

Am I correct?

The way they are, probably. I'm still banging my head on my keyboard wondering why they would open retail on a Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday...it doesn't sit right with me. =/

Most likely beta will end sometime early on the 14th and the CE HS will start later on the 14th. By that I mean like goes down at 7am EST and HS begins 8am EST.

Originally Head Start was three days. Then the CE pre-order customers complained they should get preference, so they were given four days. Then they complained some more that it wasn't special enough, so now Standard Edition pre-orders only get two days.

I saw no problem with giving CE an extra day, but to then take a day away from SE pre-order customers is very poor IMO.

MMORPG communities have already been going downhill for some years now, I wish developers would stop encouraging this B.S.

ye WARs release has been the most corrupt yet lol When 1/2 a million people don't have OB access and they start letting in CE first without even processing anyone elses accounts.....

Note: PlayNC will refuse to allow you access to your account if you forget your password and can't provide a scanned image of the product key for the first product you purchased..... LOL

The pen is mightier than the sword if the sword is very short, and the pen is very sharp.

To the best of my knowledge, unless it was a LONG time back no time was taken from Standards. It was always supposed to be 2 days for sure with a bonus +1 for CEs. If you have a link to something showing differently of course I will be happy to stand corrected.

Personally, i would think the OB will end Saturday the 13th and they will take an additional 24 hours to poke and prod. CEs are just the early lab rats to test the 'full deployment' on so that the standard user masses have an even smoother ride the first two days.
