Having been a QA tester at Infogrames/Atari (Paid Game tester like the ones at SOE) Yes i'm talking Alpha stuff, No game...And I mean No Game is ever bug free when the package hits the shelf! Printing gives at least 2 weeks to work 24/7 on Class A bugs, show stoping stuff! SOE has made sure that there will be no A bugs because that means loss of players.
Most of the time the release date is set even before the game is first worked on. The real amazing thing with SOE is the fact that they never set one. I have never seen a company so set on making a good game regardless of the cost and time. What they are doing here is history.
