I looked for this, and only found one vaguely related question a year ago that wasn't answered.

It is fine to not give a date, or even any estimate whatsoever - and I am not asking for one as that very quickly leads to a closed thread.

I just need to know how often to check this site to not miss the start of the beta, having spent a lot of money on the complete edition despite owning all the software in it already, it would be nice to have a way of entering the key ahead of time - at least i wouldnt have to worry about missing the start - quite reasonably as it is so overdue, but hey, thats how it works nowadays i guess get the hype going an worry about how long it takes later, just that after a year you just cant retain much hope

So you are trying to ask when will this game be out in a diffrant way?

I would belive there will be made an announcment, when the open beta will start. So youll have to come back all the time! and when the anouncment is made you can relax and wait for it to start.

This website rarely updates, so you would probably be okay checking it every other month or so without really missing much. At the very least check back in another year.
