I hope it isn't being rushed, no way could I respect Vigil if they royally screw this up.

Although the closer the game gets to release, the more I can see there being an open beta.

I'm exited that it seems closer but I don't want them to rush it and screw it up although patches could fix it like with WAR problem is that would kill off a lot of the player base...
But hey after trying SWTOR if it can be so similar to WoW yet still be somewhat unique with interesting game play I'm positive that vigil can do it for DMO even if they are keeping the two faction nonsense.

Don't really know what to say about that... either it's a typo, and it's meant to say "Next gens MMO", or they're releasing something half playable, since the amount of information released about the game at this point would be more if they plan to release in a year. Or they've secretly been working it for longer than they've said, and hasn't released any info about it on purpose... for whatever reason.
Anyway, I have a hard time seeing a release next year... possibly by christmas, but then the game will probably not be well polished at all. :/

While I like the idea of getting DMO next year, I am a bit reserved as well. It's possible they have a monster team cranking on the game and it's coming along smashingly but it's just not very likely. I'd love to be proved wrong, lol. I'm inclined to believe that "next years" was probably spell checked from "next gen".

Didn't it say fiscal year 2012? That runs into real year 2013 :)

I would love to see it come out next year assuming it is ballanced and polished and ready to go. That being said, how many MMORPGs release on schedule? The ones I have played have always been pushed back at least once. Still, sounds like they are investing a rather large chunck of change, so maby they got a larger team(s) working on it. Here's hoping!

Unfortunately, I dont think there's any possibility of it coming out in 2012 as a finished product. With the limited information everyone has on it, it's a virtual impossibility. Right now, it is set up to be the 'dark horse' of E32012 and Gamescon (probably). Yet, let's look at what we know so far:

1) There is an official website that consists of 3 pages. No forums. No moderators. No "official" community, only fan sites like this one.

2) It slated for release in Fiscal 2013 which (in the UK) is April 1 2012 to March 31 2013.

3) 2 confirmed classes (Space Marine and Techpriest), 3 confirmed factions (Imperium, Chaos, Ork), and a handful of vehicles/weapons.

Unless something huge happens at this year's Gamescon, I can't see any possibility of it releasing before December 2012, or more likely, any time in 2013. At the very least, we should see an official forum before beta invites are going to be given out. People will probably be testing it sometime in April 2012.

I understood it originally as a Q4 2012 release, and I am still sticking to it. I feel that there could be a lot of hard work going on in the shadows and they do not want to release anything major just yet. Besides, they might just be building anticipation... is that not what this little information we are receiving doing?

Im not sure if we will see it come out in 2012, i reckon it would be beginning of 2013 before we see it. I mean they said that it would be playable next year at e3 so i bet that it would be the alpha build then, after that we would have a few months of closed beta then open beta which would end up closing about a month before the game actually comes out so it would probably be end of fiscal 2012
