Bioware's SWTOR forums are alive with the sound of ... whining! They gave a timeframe of the release date. Hold yourself.

While we have not announced a specific date, we can confirm that we are targeting a spring 2011 release for Star Wars™: The Old Republic™. We’ve got a lot of exciting updates and reveals planned throughout 2010, including the first-ever hands-on testing for the game. It’s not too late to sign up to be a game tester, so go to www.swtor.com/tester and sign up today. We can’t wait to share more about the game with you as we progress through the year, so make sure you stay tuned to the official website for details.

Once you get up off the floor, realize it's okay. Look at what happened when Warhammer was released too early? It died due to lack of content, etc. They said: Don't worry more will be released post-release date, but people just couldn't wait. Fortunately, it looks like Bioware isn't making the same mistake. Bioware, take your time and make a great game that we will all love. Otherwise, this wait plus a terrible release would spell an end for this long anticipated MMO.
