external beta = beta for non employees/family friends - will most likely start with a closed beta, not sure if there will be any real open beta, maybe for a stress test but I doubt it. I think it will be more like SC2 | ||

NDA is a non-disclosure agreement meaning if you are invited to the beta and you disclose any screenshots or information to the public without blizzard's approval, you'll be removed from the beta. Usually only friends & family beta has NDAs. | ||

Fans around the world have been waiting for their chance to play Diablo III since the game was announced back in June of 2008. During today's Activision financial results conference call, Blizzard boss Michael Morhaime pinpointed a three-month window for the Diablo III beta. "The game is looking great," Morhaime said during the conference call, "and we're currently aiming at a third quarter launch for external beta testing." A third quarter target would have beta testing for Diablo III launching sometime between July and September of 2011. What Morhaime didn't offer was any sign of an official release date. "I want to be clear that we do not have an official release date or window yet," he said, explaining that Blizzard would not compromise quality to hit a release window. A slide accompanying the conference call did mention the company was "driving hard" to get the game released this year. With beta testing kicking off in the third quarter of 2011, we're sure to hear something regarding Diablo III's launch by the time BlizzCon 2011 rolls around in October. http://kotaku.com/#!5800097/diablo-iii-welcomes-players-to-beta-hell-this-summer Can't wait for the game to come out | ||

I didn't read the whole tread but... calendar year = jan 1 to dec 31 fiscal year = any period of one year besides that 1Q conference call in may = calendar year, since the 1st quarter ends 3/31 and then there is typically a one month delay to report the results. disclaimer : i work in financial reporting | ||

The 3rd quarter reference in the earning's call today was a calendar quarter, meaning that we're aiming to launch the Diablo III beta between July 1st and September 30th. Keep in mind that it's our current goal, and of course that can change as development continues. | ||
