I am completely clueless to why you are telling this to me?

I personally believe it'll be released in August. Just seems like the "Sweet Spot", 8months since Skyrim launch gives the prospect of Dawnguard being massive, while still leaving lots of room at the end of the year for other releases.

Yes a later release and a less bugged DLC, I'm happy with this.

The beta was obviously a planned point in development. It's not like they just decided "let's have a beta!" and knocked back the release date to allow for it.

This. We have done beta testing on all of the other patches that are much smaller than this so why wouldn't they for the dlc? There's a LOT more room for error with it than the regular patches.
