On a side note Inc.gamer is still positive for an announcement this monday for a release the 17th or 24th; it's still just rumor and speculation though.
With the removal of the PvP system and even the fact that adding in a Feat of Strength for completing Hardcore before Softcore wont happen by release makes me even feel that the release is in April. I feel that if Blizz gives themselves two months before release, that they could have the PvP down. Obviously I don't know how far with the PvP they are so I am not 100% certain, but a gut feeling can be right.

I don't always burn. But when I do, I use hellfire.
The release date is not going to be in April. Sorry guys, I don't see Blizzard not allowing two months of head room for a release. They love those two months. It's going to be either May or June. I stick by my original thought which is May 16th 2012. Obviously this is a Wednesday, but I have my reasons.

Well, the majority of the CE's items are probably complete (the making of DVD/Blu-Ray was probably completed only a short while ago, if not closing now) and since the game is always online, they could afford to risk having a small update on first-run*, so the discs could have been in production for a few weeks already.
*There aren't any serious updates coming before release, since the delaying of PVP. Creating the game discs now and having a small update when you're done installing the game won't take up too much time, if any for a lot of people, as I believe they said they were going to have pre-downloaders available.
I'd say at best, depending on the amount of updates there are going to be when we start, the release could be between early April and mid-May. If the game has a ton of updates at first-run (the discs were printed months ago) the game could come out early April, if not before.
just look at all last news , blue posts and tweets most of em point the game is pushed a lot and that is kinda rdy even they counting the days for the announce they cant add even 1 achiev since the game is porlly complete so monday announce in worst case nexst monday announce for mid-end april.
it does feel like they are pushing and rushing it, you think the game was only in production for 18months the way blizz are talking
the twin towers took 2 years to complete
who cares, im just happy its coming out soon at this point. i KNOW its not going to be 8+ weeks from announce to release. if anything itll be less then 4 with all this "we will patch after release" crap. (hall of heroes, better chat channels, PVP, guild support). theres no point in giving such a large gap between announcement and release when they've scrapped so many things just for the sake of pushing it out quicker

ive read before people asking for guilds in diablo, are they considering it/?
they said after release they may or something a long time ago when someone asked.
god i hope not, we have battlenet tags and real id, guilds would be really crap, even to have guild chat would be really crap
its d3 not an mmo, worst idea ever
lmao. i dont think it adds or takes away anything. i guess it helps people feel more attatched to eachother. people formed guilds in D2 benson, a lot actually. but there was no guild support they just had their own chat channel and made their names start with the acronym of their guild name. and FYI guilds exists in MANY other games that arent MMO's. lol

oh i know, reason i said mmo is cos alot of people want wow features in d3
alot of the features, even people talking about raids in d3, wanting 10 player multiplayer
people can be so thick sometimes
haha seriously? thats funny. ya raids definitely shouldnt make it into D3.
but in all honesty the only real thing that would ruin D3 from WoW is the gameplay. and thats what sets it apart, your not just hitting a specific rotation of skills at 1 monster for 30 minutes or hitting that same rotation to kill 1 mob at a time and traveling all over a big world. D3 is much much more fast paced killing large groups and such and thats why i love it.

I was just on walmart website and saw this, where they have the release date for 9-4-2012.
I'm sure it's just a filler. I highly doubt they would scrap arena for release already if they weren't releasing for another 6 months...but who knows?!

As always, the retailers will put up fake dates, to get pre-orders in. No one knows the releasedate yet, and I'm pretty sure it won't be 9th of April for sure.
Blizzard said that retailers will know, when we know.

If he lives in the U.S. 9-4-2012 is actually September 4th. We just have to be different from everybody else... -.-

My place really was here. I was too foolish and stubborn to notice. But, what I truly hoped for then was here. Why do I always realize it When I've already lost it.

If it was the September 4th, Blizzard wouldn't know the exact date for sure and nor would Walmart. It is just a filler.
OT: Knucker if I were you, I'd spend the time before D3 release with storm chasing, your location is just perfect for that
I just wanted to clarify that we do it differently in the states even though the filler date has no holding whatsoever.
The closest thing I've seen to a tornado is orange skies even though I've lived in Kansas my entire life. They seem to flow around wherever I live. I've seen news reports of them coming directly at us just to deflect off to the north or south. I've just gotten used to it.

I don't know about Monday as the day we find out about the release... I got this sick feeling that it isn't going to happen. I really hope i'm wrong
got the same feeling. we must be connected <3
I got the same feeling too. But I also have a feeling that it will be. By heart says no release date tomorrow, because that would be too good. But my brain and gut say yes, there will be an announcement for release date tomorrow. At least we'll know in a day.

Yeah. As some people say, expect the worst so that when the best happens, you will be happy. Except the best and you will be disappointed when the worst happens.
