Street date is the 20th. Certain games have been doing early access for a while now and people always complain about not getting in. A week from 'official' launch no one is going to care or remember how they staggered people in for early access, only whether the game runs well and for long periods of time without crashing, has no lag, server downtime/uptime, has queues and has enough content to hold the crowds interest past the 2 or so months it will take for a good chunk of people to hit end game.
