In the UK, the websites that are taking pre-orders (for very attractive prices) are stating end of November as a holding date. So I would geuss EA has told the retailers to hold space on the shelves over Xmas, although I would geuss that Jan/Feb is going to be a more likely date.

Originally posted by ZivaDomini I've been out of the MMO loop for years. However, I beta tested many back in my day. If I remember correctly, doesn't it take atleast 2-3 years for development to reach a stable level to support a large number of players? I remember games being announced at E3 back in 2003 that released in 2006. So, unless they've greatly spead up the development process, I'd say very late 2010 early 2011. They are using the Hero Engine. Supposedly, it's stable right out of the box. I'm not saying they didn't do a lot of programming and add a lot to the engine so it would do what they want it to for their game, but they didn't start from scratch building an engine. So that should have, in theory, sped up the development process.

Originally posted by throckmorton I would be very surprised if it released in 2010. I've always expected 2011 or 2012. I would be shocked if it came out later then 2010. 5 years for a game using a engine that is suppose to cut down dev time? I am thinking early spring release with a beta by the end of the year. Hold on Snow Leopard, imma let you finish, but Windows had one of the best operating systems of all time. If the Powerball lottery was like Lotro, nobody would win for 2 years, and then everyone in Nebraska would win on the same day.
