/me starts massive smear campaign against SE5 ... because of the NDA none of the beta testers can refute me... sure, SFI can sue, but what will they get out of ME?

Well if I were a beta tester, I would be thinking, "I could risk it and answer, but get kicked out, or I can err on the side of caution and keep my mouth shut" and I would keep my mouth shut.

It would be nice to know when the game is coming out though. The Malfador site says:

3. When Is the expected release date for SE5?

The tergeted release is for Q4 2005, but a lot depends on how well the Beta proceeds.

Which is clearly not going to happen.

And the last time any offical word came from anyone, anywhere, www.gamespot.com said:

The game is scheduled for release next February.

Since there is clearly no hurry at Malfador to talk about the game, release screenshots or the like, I'm guessing:

Game release date will be:

MAY 2006

maybe later. There is no competitor. There is no reason to release by a certain date. Not that I know, but noone who knows, is talking...

There are previews for the game at a few game sites. They have more screen shots and what not.
