How do they expect the launch of 2.0 to be successful if they aren't even willing to give a release date? In my opinion you can't just expect to let us know about the release date a week or two in advance, and expect people to be aware of it. In order for people to be aware of the launch of the game setting a release date is a pretty important aspect... Not everyone's following the game as closely as us after all.

If 2.0 is going to most likely come out before February 2013, like most of us are expecting it to, it seems really rash that they haven't even released a release date yet. I can't think of any game launch that hasn't announced a release date well before three months ahead of time. Granted, this isn't really a new game, but they're treating it like one after all...

This leads me to believe that the launch date could be much later than we're expecting. I hope it's not the case, but I'm starting to consider fall or winter 2013 as viable options.
