Read this interview, they talk about Beta and a tentative release date.
The game they describe in that interview sounds like Tabula Rasa lol. I hope it turns out way better than that.
I hope so too, TR didn't hold me. I'm sure many like TR but unfortunately it just didn't "click" with me.
release date has not been announced yet
beta will be in spring game will come out fall 2008 I read that on http://forums.stargateworlds.com/
That's what the Dev's keep saying, but I don't believe it.

Well technically it's possible... but if they do that it will very likely be craptacular and just a money grab.

Bear in mind that they have licensed several codebases from various sources (e.g. Unreal Engine 3, Bigworld, SpeedTree). Doing that would have sped up the development time dramatically.
I believe the estimated dates.
They didn't have to make their tools, they are using high quality ones instead.
This means that what they mostly need to do is the arts and game mechanics. I can assure you from the start that this game won't release with alot of major bugs.
Hopefully this won't show up about the same time as the Wow Lich King expansion and get buried in the hype for that game.
That's a great point. I'd sure hate to see the game get buried because the 400lb gorilla comes in with new clothes on. It's still the same old gorilla, but put a new shirt on it and everyone wants it.
Either way, as much as I don't want to see any delays of SGW past Fall 08, I'd rather see a top notch game. But, miss that Christmas cutoff, and you cost yourself sales of thousands of units. IMHO.
