"Star Wars Galaxies is now entering the final phase of development, and everyone at LucasArts and Sony Online Entertainment is pleased with the game's progress since the beta test program was initiated. We've received a good deal of constructive feedback and many positive suggestions that, if executed, will genuinely enhance gameplay for the hundreds of thousands of players who comprise the community.
To deliver the best possible massively multiplayer experience and ensure stability and breadth of content, LucasArts and Sony Online Entertainment will delay the game's April 15 launch. This will enable us to invest more time into the beta program, and to solicit additional feedback from the tremendous fan base Star Wars Galaxies has already developed.

"In addition, we will not open phase three of the beta program until we feel the game is ready for a wider audience, which we anticipate will be within the next few weeks. A new release date for Star Wars Galaxies will be announced shortly after the beginning of beta three.

"We are sincerely grateful to the Star Wars Galaxies community for their tremendous support. We respectfully ask for their continued understanding and patience during these final few months leading up to the launch of what we believe will be one of the best MMOs to date."


Surprise surprise.

during these final few months leading up to the launch of what we believe will be one of the best MMOs to date."

whoa, even they think it sucks.

Not totally unexpected. I've waited this long so a bit longer doesn't bother me. Planetside better come out soon though to help through the wait.

Anyone who is in beta (or knows someone in beta) knows SWG is nowhere close to being ready.
Once they start stress testing the servers, you can expect release in 3-4 weeks.

Planetside hasn't even went to open beta yet. SWG will come out first.

/shrug

They're trying to make a game where the majority of combat is ranged, but trying to keep it from being a twitchy gank-fest. Delays are unavoidable.

If they think they are ready for release by April 15th all I have to say is LOL.
