Default I wonder...

why the release date for RO2: HoS at the official Steam page is Q1 2011 instead of Q3 as i've read several times before (or have seen).

They dont know when the game will be ready, Q1 is just a placeholder.

EDIT: But they hired a good bunch of people in the past year, so maybe thats why the release date is set to Q1

keke i do not dislike this placeholder . Although i do not understand the intention of such a placeholder, if a company as Steam shouldn't make absurd information public.

It's a placeholder, but makes you still wonder, why put Q1 2011 as a placeholder, i mean if you're not sure about the release quarter, why not just put it 2011 with no specific quarter.. unless...

Why not just TBA instead of Q1 giving people possibly false information

If they did preorders, would you care about what quarter it gets released? I think nearly everyone on the forum would just preorder instantly.
