Please, people, respect the NDA. When you have a beta available to a relatively large circle of people like this one, I am sure THQ is counting on there being some violations, that is the sad reality, but please respect the NDA. Not doing so makes companies less inclined to offer betas in the future.

1 leaked alpha vid creates more hype than all PR they have done since they announced it
but hey... they are "shocked" that other companies dont enforce NDA for beta... speaks a lot about why their (often superior) games dont ever reach even 30% of popularity some other mediocre games do...

also sc2 had NDA only in alpha, same with D3... the second game goes closed beta, no NDA and streams alone build hype through the roof... as people are watching and thinking "i want to play it so bad" and preorder it to get in beta and everything...
many more would preorder if they could see what they are getting, and by the time NDA is taken down, with 1 screenshot per month and no info given out, people will more likely forget about it and move to something else (atleast potential new coh player) by then than go on and preorder it
i respect NDA and all that and im not the one who would ever break it, but more often than not NDA is doing much more damage than any leaked footage could... and thats why i dont like it
for example, i know around 10 people who forgot about coh2 until i stumbled on alpha vid and now its like "wow, wish it would come out sooner" and checking all coh sites 10 times a day in hope of stumbling upon some more info or some more vids...

It would be silly not to.
i agree... but with Relics history with OF and ToV, i wouldn't put it beyond them :-P

i actually wasn't too serious about it (was more of a friendly jab at relic), though i might end up to be right, which would be unfortunate :-/
they don't necessarily have to lift the NDA at the start of beta, but i would expect them to do so soon after. especially since the group of beta participants will be huge, and there will be no way to stop everybody from leaking information.

After using Wiki: David Kim actually worked at RELIC around the time vCoh came out. He moved to Blizzard december 2007.
