Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...
I hope you are right about Tera eventhough it isnt at the top of my list, i need a MMO to play. Burnt out on others and nothing in 2010 interested me at all to play.
I am also anxious for new releases, especially Earthrise. Unfortunately, I think the Q4 2010 deadline is bogus, and I'd be surprised even if they release in Q1 2011.
Quarter 1 is a slow time of the year for most markets, no one really buys anything other than in the sales during January and February. Things don't pick up until mid to late March/April.
I wouldn't expect some of these games to launch until then.
TERA probably won't launch until 3rd or 4th quarter considering they are still planning alpha stage focus group tests.
Dont think TERA is in alpha stage. FGT doesnt really imply any specific stage of development. Korea has been doing CBT's since before any FGT's were done here I think. Im thinking the FGT's here were done mostly to get feedback on what the game needs for the western audience so En Masse can pass it on to their Korean overlords.
I would probably guess another 6 months until TERA if this upcoming FGT comes up soon and is the final one before they try finishing up.

The Korean TERA is still going through stop and go testing. More stop rather then go as they have been talking about a Korean open beta for 6 months and they still have not started it. The American TERA is even further behind. I am convinced Blue hole studio and En Masse can't keep their projects on schedual or release anything in a timely manner.

WoW cata in DEC I think and Tera in 1Q 2011.

Let see now: TOR is launching in April.
GW2 might launch then but Q2 or Q3 is more likely.
Tera and Rift might be launching then, all we know is 2011.
So possibly but I think it will be Q2 that is the interesting time (There is a Chinese saying: "May you live in interesting times").
I hope you are right about Tera eventhough it isnt at the top of my list, i need a MMO to play. Burnt out on others and nothing in 2010 interested me at all to play.
DC Universe Online, Which Im actually excited for .
thought SWTOR was coming out then, maybe that was Q2...anyway.
SKYeXile
TRF - GM - GW2, PS2, WAR, AION, Rift, WoW, WOT....etc...
Future Crew - High Council. Planetside 1 & 2.
Hang on, let me look at my crystal ball...It says 'Prediction put back due to crystal ball needing more polishing.'
You can't rely on anything coming out on time mate, enjoy the game you are in and stop watching the MMO kettle boil.

My bet is RIFT launches first quarter next year especially since they have purchased ad space at this and other sites to advertise for their beta.
TERA probably won't launch until 3rd or 4th quarter considering they are still planning alpha stage focus group tests.
I believe TERA is releasing in Korea soon, Im thinking a Q1 release for TERA in the west.
Pretty sure SWTOR is confirmed for release on Q1 2011 as well.
Dont really know jack about Rift. Not really interested in this one though.
Maybe GW2 also? Not 100% on that. Have they even done any testing yet? Game looks pretty far into its developement already.
Regardless ill be on Cataclysm until one of them pulls me away. Hopefully for good this time.

I think its actually a curse
and at least regarding SWTOR its well on the track to be true, its gonna flop damn hard
Rift is going to release in Q1. They just started Beta invites and all the other PR-stuff.

I hope that Diablo Lore ? will come out of next year.
Probably not or maybe just a few. I think most upcoming games will be released on second quarter to third quarter.
