After a thorough search of all the threads in the forum, I can definitively state that the actual release date will be... Soon.

It looks like we are pushing for a March 31st full Elite release date...
This month a few days of Alpha 4, a few days of Beta 1, and an afternoon of Beta 2, then Bingo.

Yes, now that they have the core game systems in place, development will steadily accelerate:

Alpha 3 - March 17th
Alpha 4 - March 24th
Beta 1 - March 28th
Beta 2 - March 30th
Gamma - March 31st 09:00
Retail - March 31st 13:15
First Expansion (planetary landings) - March 31st 14:30
Second Expansion (walking about, etc.) - March 31st 14:37
Obsolescence and shutdown of servers 23 seconds later

... sit back, relax and start the Bingo.

If the retail version of the game is released at the end of the year, I'm happy. Because the second generation of GTX Maxwell is planned for the autumn. And I want to see what looks like the second generation before buying a graphics card

Thats what I read too. Just upping the clock speed.. More heat...

Thought Nvidia were going to take the Maxwell architecture and scale it up somewhat later this year. No reason why not is there?

I was thinking it was March 15 for Alpha 3?

Could be, they said mid March, though the 15th is a Saturday. Some one in another thread said that Tuesdays were good for launching tests so maybe the 11th or 18th ?

Are you mad? It's this sort of speculation that does the damage!

Perhaps, but there will surely have the improvements. And like the energy and the heat are already much lower on the first generation of Maxwell compared to Kepler, I still think the second generation should be more interesting than Kepler, no ?
