    Seems like everyone is a bit hostile eh?

     

    I didn't realize there was a argument about release dates on the forums or I would of never posted here at all.

     

    Cheers.

    LOL- We can argue about anything you can post- You post it and we will disagree.

    BTW, you are wrong. =P

    probably but you are forgiven. most of us dont take ourselves terribly seriously .. we just .. meh if I could explain it I probably wouldnt be here.

    suffice to say GS throws darts at a calendar so there is a date of some kind. they have no idea. the devs dont tell anyone. its a big part of their marketing. suspense.

    LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.
    I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already :)

    I do believe the employee was new because he looked at his computer screen and said "August 28th 2012" and then his manager quickly told him he wasn't supposed to say that.

     

    SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

     

    This is in Canada by the way, but I'm assuming its the date for North America.

     

    August 28th BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

    lol. poor guy must have been fired... nah..

    thats not the date. GameStop employees have been looking at the computer saying release dates when asked since 2009

    What would really be funny about this is if it was true.  Suddenly out of nwhere BANG release..

     

    And then for no apparent reason at all...a 4 hr stress test the day after. >.>

    I'd love it for the giggles and confusion..and mostly cuz it'd be released...but..it won't be..just sayin, it'd be funny.

    Everyone knows that a janitor is honor and duty bound to only report the true release date of any product...

    ...and unclog the toilet.

    LMAO you gotta love these posts where Gamestop / Amazon / Some bum on the street magically knows a release date that hasn't even been set yet .. And the gullible idiots that believe anything that Gamestop says. 

     

    a fair chunk of gamestop employees couldn't tell the difference between a Wii and a screwdriver I wouldn't take anything they tell you seriously. 

     

    @op I wouldn't hold your breath expecting the game Aug 28th thats far too soon from what i've whitnessed so far might start getting excited around mid - late November at the earliest.

    actually imo, from what I"VE witnessed so far I wouldn't be surprised if it did come out in august, you have to admit even in beta it's more polshed then most mmo's at launch

    I'm not from USA nor Canada, so I'm impartial. And by judging all the unjustified random shit a majority of americans are saying about Canada, I'll prefer to live in that "not-a-real-nation" you're calling than in USA, anytime.
