I hope that is all speculation,because this game will have had only 3 years maximum development time,not nearly enough.This is why i asked in another thread,if Bioware is going to put in the effort a MMO deserves or treat it as another single player game.I said this becuase EA is not known for being too lenient on costs,they fire /release employees at the first sign of profits slowing down.
Also if the date is true,how can ANY dev give a "guarantee" release date?What if there are bugs or known game issues?Does that mean the developer doesn't care and will release the game anyhow?That is exactly what i pointed out when i heard FFXIV had a guarantee release date,i knew that meant problems.A developer MUST finish the BETA phase,then make any neccessary changes,then and ONLY then announce a release date.
As pointed out the development of this game began somewhere near the end of 2006-early 2007.
Testing began in june of 2010
Also the date they have...is guessing, the only official statement is the one EAs and BW are giving.
EAs is between april 1st and December 31st (they have stated it will release this year, another words no matter what it won't be pushed back to 2012)
BW has stated they are shooting for spring 2011.
These are the only two official ones. Everything else is speculation and guessing until more evidence comes out.
LOL, correction....... it began at the end of 2005. December to be exact when Gordan Walton and Rich Vogal began using the few writers they had to begin fleshing out the stories for SWTOR.
just think if we found out about it then and were waiting around

Well, there were rumors then, so some of us kinda were. Nothing more frustrating then getting the old "BioWare does not comment on rumors" for 2 years. Then in Oct of 08 we get "The Wait is over" yet we all knew the real wait had just begun.

So true and still waiting...
Wishes. Retailers give estimate dates, but that normally means pre-order's will soon follow. Hope? I think so.
