I'll put my non-money on Brad pull a Bill "Drengin" Lumbergh on his team, forcing them to work over the weekend.  I'll say Sunday, Feb 7, 8 AM Central time.

America is backwards and we put the month first, most of the world puts the day first...  I will assume he/she meant Feb 5 unless told otherwise.

I'd personally rather it be early next year then be released and unplayable...

 

I suspect they found something that wasn't quite right and are working to fix it.

Stardock hasn't been great at hitting its initial release dates for GC3 (have they hit any?), but early next year for the beta for Mercs would really be slipping!

The question with the beta as it stands is if there is going to be enough time for players to find bugs, report them and then for Stardock to address them and work them in before the actual release.  If not it makes having a beta questionable.  Though if the main focus of this is the early access side of things over polishing the time isn't so much of an issue.

I agree, I thought early this week wasn't enough time to bug hunt...  I hope they get it out soon...

Oh and updated list

I suspect it's mostly done, the beta would catch only a few exceptional oversights. So,   releasing it would,like you said be early access bonus. Also, Brad said it was going to be released this week, but actually it's Paul that's the game producer and if he thinks it's not ready, it's not ready (I doubt Brad would override him to push it out undone)

You'd be more disappointed if it kept crashing on you for some reason.

I figure SD hasn't/hadn't released the beta simply because it isn't/wasn't ready yet. Maybe Quality Control caught something critical,  and the QA process had to be started all over again.

After all. while the kibitzing now might be annoying to SD, I think the caterwauling over crashed games might be a tad more so.

It'll be out soon enough, I reckon.

My prediction of Feb 19 is starting to look pretty good. Will there be cake?

I like it, however, you already picked a time ...  After all he did say early this week and we know that past without it so it could be anytime...

Because Galactic Civilizations III running in the background is eating up all of your graphics memory.

We're pretty close.  

As much as we love early access, we don't actually rely on it for our QA needs.  At this stage, it'll be more about balance and seeing if anything went through.

I am expecting a VIP code to send to founders immently. It'll be in the founders forums.

Well I thought tonite at 10:00 was a little too obvious after Brad's post 

But if you're still taking real guesses go ahead and put me in for 10:10 tonite.
