oh then early access isnt a big deal then, since there will be no wipes for open beta it's just like everyone has early access and then you just get to play for 3 days more in between the open beta and launch rofl
Early access will probably be 1 week. so if you can take playing a game for 2 weeks, then having it cut off for a week....then meh. Like I posted in another thread, beta / release should look like this:
phase 3 test 4 = july 5 - 11 (could be till 16th. it is either till the 16th or there will be 1 extra week in the down time till phase 4)
1-2 weeks of downtime (i am assuming 3 weeks of downtime)
phase 4 = august 2 - 16
downtime (according to yoshida it could be 1...2...3 days) -> i assume it will be 4 days
august 20 = early release (i believe pre-release will be a 1 week time period)
august 27 = game launch
