I'm leaning toward mid to late October with 3-4 weekend beta events through September and early October. This would allow it to release before the standard Blizzard release window of November and December with Diablo 3.

not bad for an assumption, lets hope.
I will buy a new rig for this unless it supports Macs !

If that is your current rig in your sig, than it should run it. Otherwise you may simply need to upgrade your video card. The game is built around running on a larger range of computers, unlike games like Age of Conan that went for lolgraphics with very few that could actually run the game when it was released, thus shooting itself in the foot to one section of the mmo population.

Conan also had compatibility problems with some GPUS at launch as well, so even rigs(like mine) that didn't need to worry...ended up not being to run it well.

gamestop actually had the release date up for about 10 mins or so right after preorder was announced and it was for either 1/2/12 or 1/3/12 dont remember, but then again its gamestop they do use place holders, i just found it weird that when i checked back like 5-10 mins later it was gone.

i think so..or they will have a test version for 30 days at the start.
the CB will be pretty much open too cause they will invite more and
