There is a huge thread on this going on in the official forums general TOR section, almost 100 pages long.
Apparently, BW leaked the beta signup page onto their news feed for a few minutes and someone screencapped it. I reccommend checking it out.
This discussion has been closed.

They did say october was going to be big. So I wouldn't be surprised.
Yeah I read something about that on Amy's wall, lol. anyone got the screen shot?
nvm

If this is true, this is fucking awesome. Planetside 2 and ToR beta sign-ups? Bad-ass! Great week/day.
Update:
"
Sean left a comment in a thread saying "Come back tomorrow for a present
And then we found this, an article in their CMS set for release tomorrow.

:O
I wanna be a tester!!!!
People are watching Bioware like hawks lol
I don't know if they'll make any announcment on Friday but It's certainly made things interesting lol
my hope is they announce that tor as is sucks and they are reworking the game in order to make it good

I'm glad you know the quality of the game before people can even signup for the beta...if so also tell me who will win every major sporting event for the next 12 months, I could use the money.
Anywho, good to hear that the beta is coming about smoothly...can't wait to sign-up. Can someone make a post to this thread or make a new one when the signups are finally active (assumingly they don't mass email or something of the such).
While I really want to believe this is true... there are a few things that point towards "no"... unless they're doing Alpha testing or something.
My main reservations are due to the fact that they haven't released all the classes or planets, and not nearly enough history has been revealed. It just seems... odd that something like that would be whats going on when they've been so tight-lipped about it all. Furthermore, for them to be starting a beta test in October (or somewhere within the next month or so) would imply that there is roughly another 4-6 months before completion and launch (then again, we don't know how they're going to do things, they could be punctual or they could be like LA with SWG launch and postpone it a total of like a year).
Iuno, for just as much as I'm hoping things go well, as has been discussed in other post, EA is a big factor and could make things worse by pushing the game too early, and I'm sure once Bioware says the word "Beta" that EA is going to be expecting things to start rolling out ASAP.
Lets hope that the game is completed and fun instead of forced and unpolished.
"And after blizzard takes over the world, they are gonna gather a bunch of lemmings, sit on their fat asses near a cliff, and watch the little fuzzy bastards suicide dive into the ground below. . . . . all just for their own entertainment."

We only have to wait 6 more years to get the Sports Almanac!!
Then we can travel back to 1985 and start making mega mega bucks!
If this is true, it sucks for me as I'm in Tokyo til December.
Also, Bioware is a company known not to show their whole hand and keep some aspects of development quiet. I wouldn't be surprised if they had a small group of people to try out the already existing mechanics.
my hope is they announce that tor as is sucks and they are reworking the game in order to make it good
That's a pretty bold statement considering no one outside of BioWare, and most definitely including You, has actually played the freaking Game...Not sure how you figured out it sucks based on the limited info we have all received...But great to hear your crystal ball is working as intended...
The site is down for maintenance.....

My hope is that u eventually get as bored as the rest of us with ur bitching and stfu. Stillwhining more like.
I have been in the beta for nearly every MMO lanched in the past 6 years and they have all failed me. I have decided that I will NOT beta test SW:TOR because I want to to be good so bad.
32 days until Dragon Age: Origins then 4 months until Mass Effect 2 then only 6 or so months until TOR!

hmmmmm..... I feel a disturbance in the force.........

Yeah something is up
ITS UP GO GO GO
Same here. One thing good that comes out of all of the beta talk is that that BioWare may now begin to disclose more info about their game.
lol I got first, then it went down again.
I signed up, kept getting error at first. Think it's getting flooded.....but my beta app is complete
